CS/A65 keyboard emulator

This board allows to emulate a real matrix keyboard for another computer. A matrix keyboard uses a set of input lines and each keypress connects an input line with a specific output line, which is detected by the host cpu. This is emulated by the board using a shared memory. Access to the shared memory is time-shared.

Version: 1.0C

Status: ok

Notes

 
The board implements two keyboard ports with a 8x8 matrix each, using 512 byte of I/O memory.
