Does anyone have any good schematics/code for connecting a PS/2 keyboard to one of these uC's? Alternatively does anyone know of any good small keypads that are easy to interface (and cheap!) I've been looking, but haven't found anything that scratches my itch yet. Thanks!

Let me elaborate. I already know about the following links: http://panda.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/~achapwes/PICmicro/keyboard/atkeyboard.h tml http://www.computer-engineering.org/ps2protocol/ http://www.synaptics.com/decaf/utilities/ACF126.pdf What I'm wondering is if there is either any simple keypad that can be attached via SPI or I2C or something, or if there is any code that is prewritten for using PS/2 communications. I haven't been able to find either.

IIRC, AT keyboards use a three wire protocol. Anything you find relating to AT keyboards will work with PS/2 keyboards. I am confident that you just haven't looked all that much for information, it is out there on the net. ;-) TomW >Alternatively does anyone know of any good small keypads that are easy >to interface (and cheap!) > >I've been looking, but haven't found anything that scratches my itch >yet. > >Thanks! > > > > > > > > >Yahoo!
