Subject: Keyboard Converter info
I would like to interface an IBM-type keyboard to my Osborne Executive.
The keyboard puts out a TTL "ascii-like" serial bit stream and my
computer expects to see an 8-bit parallel input on the keyboard port. I
imagine that someone has done this sort of thing before, maybe even some
company that offers an IBMPC-keyboard-to-8-bit-parallel conversion
adapter. Can anyone offer some information? I know that I can design
and build an adapter, but -- just maybe -- someone has already done
this.
Thanks in advance, --Paul Woodie (Woodie at dockmaster)
