+description:
+ The charlieplex keypad supports N^2)-N different key combinations (where N is
+ the number of lines). Key presses and releases are detected by configuring
+ only one line as output at a time, and reading other line states. This process
+ is repeated for each line.
+ This mechanism doesn't allow to detect simultaneous key presses.
