A keyboard is a digital or electronic instrument. Electronic keyboards are capable of recreating a wide range of instrument sounds including strings, organs, pianos and brass.
Keyboards often have less than 88 keys and can have a semi-weighted or unweighted spring-loaded key action, which is far lighter and would never pass for real piano action. There’s always the chance of overlapping features between keyboards and digital pianos.
