A composite function keyboard circuit includes a matrix circuit, a bias resistor circuit and a controller. Each switch unit in the matrix circuit includes an ink-type force sensing switch and an anti-ghosting unit. A pressure-related resistance of the ink-type force sensing switch is variable according to a pressing mode of a keypress action. An electrical connection path is defined by the ink-type force sensing switch and the corresponding bias resistor of the bias resistor circuit. When the ink-type force sensing switch is electrically conducted, a divided conduction voltage is generated by the electrical connection path. According to a level of the divided conduction voltage, the controller generates a corresponding key control instruction, and the controller judges whether the switch unit in the switch unit group is effectively turned on. Consequently, a ghost key phenomenon is avoided.
