- This is not the english translation of the french doc but simply an abstract.
-
- Many people want to use a PeeCee keyboard instead of the Amiga keyboard so,
- this archive is an update to the hack made by Eric Rudoph in 1991
- (aminet hard/hack/ibmKeyboard.lha).
- I build this hack and it work great with my Amiga 1200, so I decide to put my
- work in an archive in aminet because the original one is "fairly involved".
-
- I give you:
-
- a shematic instead of a long text,
- a PCB to build the interface (not very beautiful because there are
- many wire bridges needed but it work),
- a binary (without the XT support) to put in an 2732 eprom.
-
- For 1200 owner, like me, we must first do another hack to have an external
- keyboard port, the way to do that is in archive A1200exkeyb.lha (hard/hack).
- The only thing that I would like to say about this hack is that I DON'T CUT
- ANYTHING IN MY 1200 the two keyboards work perfectly (but Your Mileage May
- Vary).
- ***NOTE: the reset will be driven by the micro-controler, so no external
- reset button.

- In this archive You can find:
-
- doc/frenchDoc.txt ( french doc)
- doc/otherStuf.txt ( ? )
- doc/englishDoc.txt { this file }
- onlyAT.asm ( source file )
- onlyAT.hex ( hex for hex eprommer )
- onlyAT.bin ( binary for binary eprommer )
- keymaps/fPC ( a french keymap to put in your devs/keymaps)
-
-
- and some very useful files in EPS form (my work is done on a PeeCee so...):
-
- pcKeyPCB.eps ( PCB - Printed Circuit Board - )
- pcKeyshem.eps ( a great shematic - without IC's power supply - )
- pcKeyTop.eps ( component side, top view of PCB )
-
- You need a postscript printer to print these files correctly; take care at the
- scale of the PCB (VERY IMPORTANT).
-
-
- I recommend these archives
-
- ibmKeyboard.lha
- A1200ExKeyb.lha
- editKeys.lha { useful to make your own keymap }

-
- I would like to thanks
-
- Eric Rudolph for his idea,
- David Kinder for EditKeys,
- All the people who make good hacks,
- Me for doing this.
-
- I use the registered version of the great and well supported FrexxEd,
- so thanks Daniel Stenberg & Kjell Ericson.
-
-
- Is there a good (Amiga) software to make electronic projects from shematic
- to PCB ?
