Tutorial 0 - Introduction
|
|
=========================
|
|
The first two tutorials are intended to be read in sequence:
|
|
1. Breadboard keyboard
|
|
2. Single-layer keybrd
|
|
You can write a keyboard firmware after reading tutorial 2.
|
|
Topics covered in tutorial 2 apply to all keybrd sketches.
|
|
The remaining tutorials can be read in any sequence, and highlight topics that may or may not be useful to your keyboard design.
|
|
|
|
The tutorials assume the reader:
|
|
* is familiar with C++
|
|
* is new to Arduino, firmware, controllers, and the internal workings of keyboards
|
|
|
|
Each tutorial presents an example sketch.
|
|
All the example sketches have 2 to 8 keys and run on a breadboard keyboard.
|
|
|
|
todo all the tutorial sketches are tested on teensy 2.0 and PCA9655E-D IOE
|
|
in July, sketches will be changed to Teensy LC and MCP23018 IOE
|
|
|
|
You will need a breadboard keyboard with a Teensy 2.0 controller to run the tutorial sketches.
|
|
If you use a different controller, you may have to change port classes.
|
|
If you already have a keyboard with an Arduino compatible controller, you can use that instead of a breadboard keyboard.
