ADB to USB keyboard converter
|
|
=============================
|
|
This firmware converts ADB keyboard protocol to USB.
|
|
You can use PJRC Teensy for this converter, though, other USB AVR(ATMega32U4, AT90USB64/128 or etc) should work.
|
|
But binary size is about 10KB or more it doesn't fit into 8K flash like ATMega8U2.

Build
|
|
-----
|
|
0. Connect ADB keyboard to Teensy by 3 lines(Vcc, GND, Data). By default Data line uses port D0.
|
|
This converter uses AVR's internal pull-up, but it seems to be too weak, in particular when you want to use a long or coiled cable.
|
|
The external pull-up resistor(1K-10K Ohm) on Data is strongly recommended.
|
|
1. Define following macros for ADB connection in config.h if you use other than port D0.
|
|
ADB_PORT, ADB_PIN, ADB_DDR, ADB_DATA_BIT
|
|
2. make
|
|
3. program Teensy
|
|

LOCKING CAPSLOCK
|
|
----------------
|
|
Many of old ADB keyboards have mechanical push-lock switch for Capslock key and this converter supports the locking Capslock key by default. See README in top directory for more detail about this feature.
|
|
|
|
Also you may want to remove locking pin from the push-lock switch to use capslock as a normal momentary switch.

Keymap
|
|
------
|
|
You can change a keymap by editing code of keymap.c like following.
|
|
This is a keymap for AEK, however, also used for other keyboards.
|
|
How to define the keymap is probably obvious. You can find key symbols in keycode.h.
|
|
If you want to define some keymaps than just one, see hhkb/keymap.c and
|
|
macway/keymap.c as examples. Keymap(layer) switching may needs a bit of
|
|
effort at this time.

Notes
|
|
-----
|
|
Many ADB keyboards has no discrimination between right modifier and left one,
|
|
you will always see left control even if you press right control key.
|
|
Apple Extended Keyboard and Apple Extended Keyboard II are the examples.
|
|
Though ADB protocol itsef has the ability of distinction between right and left.
|
|
And most ADB keyboard has no NKRO functionality, though ADB protocol itsef has that.
|
|
See protocol/adb.c for more info.
