AT/PS2 Keybord - PIC Interface?

[mytekcontrols]

Kamikaze47:

Thanks for all the time ur putting into this mytekcontrols

Actually I have a self-serving interest in doing this as well. I am designing a product that incorporates this code (along with a lot of other stuff), and I find it gives me incentive to improve it when someone else is in need of the same thing.

Kamikaze47:

I was thinking about the problem of fitting this onto a 16F84 (which will be a problem)

Just curious. Any reason you are persistant on using this particular processor? You really would be much better off using an 18F series chip like the PIC18F252 or PIC18F2525. Does it have something to do with not having a programmer for these?

Kamikaze47:

...i remembered that the 16F84 has 64 bytes of EEPROM data memory. I wonder if I could put some of the lookup tables on that memory in order to free up program memory

You certainly could. But it will only be of value if can you preload the eeprom with the DATA function in PBP, or have some other way to do it through your programmer.


Have fun with your project, and the best of luck squeezing it into your F84. <img src="http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=615&stc=1&d=1131930010 " align="absmiddle">
