N-Key Rollover

N-Key Rollover (N-KEY) -- The ability for a keyboard to recognize any number of keys being actuated at once. Whereas a keyboard with 5-key rollover could only detect 5 keys being pressed at one time, in this case, “N” is indicative of any reasonable integer since there is no-key rollover. N-key rollover is sometimes referred to as anti-ghosting.
