Features
I like retro-computers. Most of the retro-computer projects use PS/2 keyboards due to the ease of interfacing. I found panel mount connectors nice but hard to find and somewhat expensive. This card works well for the need.
- PS/2 keyboard/mouse interface
- Two PS/2 connectors
- Power options for 3.3V or 5V
- 3.3V/5V Host and 3.3V/5V Keyboard/Mouse
- Option for bi-directional level translator TXS0104
- Bypass resistors for direct connection
Connectors
J1 - PS/2 #1
- Standard PS/2 MIN-DIN female connector
- Color codes Purple = Keyboard
J2 - PS/2 #2
- Standard PS/2 MIN-DIN female connector
- Color codes Green = Mouse
J3 - Host connection
- PWR1 is the power to the PS/2 #1, #2 connectors
- +3.3V connections are only needed when the translator is installed
