Anyways, let's come back to keypad, if you wanna read the keypad details then you should read Interfacing of keypad with Arduino in Proteus ISIS as I have mentioned all the basic details about keypad in that tutorial and I am not gonna repeat it. But as a simple recall, keypad works on matrix system like it has 4 columns and 4 rows so we will have total 8 pins through which we are gonna control these 16 buttons. So, let's get started with it.
