Introduction

It is getting difficult to find ASCII serial keyboards for use in Retro-Computer projects. This card fills that need. The card is a PS/2 keyboard to TTL Level Serial adapter. PS/2 keyboards are still widely available.

Features

  • QT Py (RP2040 based)
    • Run at 125 MHz
    • 2MB of In System Programmable (ISP) flash
    • 264KB of SRAM
  • 115,200 baud serial
    • 57,600-250,000 are build time options
  • 49x49mm ODAS form factor
  • (4) 4-40 mounting holes
  • 3.3V or 5V operation
  • Current measurement
    • TBD @ 5V (without keyboard)
    • TBD @ 5V (including keyboard)
    • TBD @ 3.3V (including keyboard)
      • Does not require a keyboard that works at 3.3V

Issues

Rev 4

  • Changed CPU
    • Was 8 MHz ATTiny85
    • Changed to QT PY or XAIO
  • Changed pin usage
  • Uses Hardware Transmitter in CPU
