Abstract
An information handling system keyboard has a circuit board with snap openings to couple individual modular keys over input contact pads. The modular keys have a base with snaps to couple to the circuit board, a key cap to accept an end user input, a scissors coupled to the base and key cap to define a vertical travel of the key and rubber dome that biases the key cap away from the circuit board and includes a conductive bottom surface to contact the conductive pad when an end user presses down on the key cap as an input.
