does this seem right for a 3x3 button matrix

@copilot does this seem right for a 3x3 button matrix
2y
From your project description, you do appear to have a total of nine buttons, as would be expected in a 3x3 button matrix, each referred to as SW1, SW3, SW4, SW6, SW8, SW9, SW10, SW13, and SW14.
However, it's difficult to confirm the specific configuration, as I can't fully visualize the connections from the net descriptions you've provided.
Here are some considerations that you should note for a 3x3 button matrix:
  1. There should be a total of 9 buttons.
  2. The buttons should be arranged such that each row shares a common cathode or anode, and each column shares a common anode or cathode. That means, for a button in any given row and column, it would be expected that it connects to the associated row net and column net.
  3. The resulting matrix would have six connections: three representing the rows and three representing the columns.
However, the the project involves 1N4148 diodes, which implies a diode matrix rather than a typical row/column button matrix. Diode matrices are beneficial in button matrices as they prevent "ghosting" and "masking" issues.
Without the complete connectivity details at my disposal, it's tricky to determine whether the diodes and switches are arranged properly, but assuming each switch is associated with a diode, it would seem plausible.
Do keep in mind that, depending on your needs, you might also need pull-up or pull-down resistors on the rows or columns of your button matrix.
Let me know if you need more detailed instructions or help!
