    Did you search the internet? The are plenty of them out there.

    Use google and search for matrix keypad microcontroller. Add atmel if you are using that chip. The megas will all work about the same way for that purpose.

    instead of doing a matrix, you can also use two cascaded encoders... it makes you use only 6 pins instead of 8.. and it's very easy in wiring and programming.

    Wasn't/Isn't there a 74LS923 keyboard encoder that inputs a 4x4 matrixed keyboard and outputs 4-bits with strobe?
