| Cheapest Keyboard Encoder |

Cheapest keyboard encoder option. I mean cheapest, no keyboard hacks though. DIY options, commercial option I am curious what is the cheapest way. Need about 10 of them for several projects and tired of hacking up gamepads and messing with joytokey. A decent DIY keyboard encoder using an IC would be nice, if someone has a relatively cheap board layout I can make that would suffice. Cheers! |

Xin-Mo is a gamepad encoder, not a keyboard encoder. Buy an AVR here or here and do one of the following: 1. Load the current KADE firmware (20 dedicated inputs), connect two buttons to HWB and another input for shifted functions using diodes like the right side of the diagram here. Pros: Easy to load/customize. Cons: Uses 4 diodes. (Not much of a Con IMHO but :dunno) 2. Load the older AVR encoder extended firmware from here -- Group B or Group D on the Full Key Mapping Table. Extended Mode Wiring diagram is also there. Pros: No diodes. Cons: Harder to load, can't customize the key map. Related PM sent. Scott |
