You soon get to thinking in odd ways like active low - just a little time
and practise. Which chip are you looking at (number)? I bought some from
these guys for contactless keypads (4 key), something like 10040 or similar
and the evaluation board looks good and works which is encouraging. Another
little task to play with soon. By the way, they were shipped from
Southampton even though the pricing is in dollars.

you have to think in a completely different way...active-low's when (for me
logically) a high would designate ON .. but that's just me...
