Wow, that's cool. Do you plan to release the documentation for that keyboard adapter? My Hades has the large AT style connector, but I have a
Sure. I'll release the sources and documentation when I've finished it. It's currently a breadboard project, so I need to implement it on a piece of stripboard or similar. The hardware is extremely simple, just an Atmel Atmega168 microcontroller, a 16Mhz resonator and a resistor. The microcontroller can be programmed from a PC or Mac through the TT keyboard connector.
PS/2 adapter on it. Would be nice to go back to my TT keyboard, I do miss it so even with some worn off letters. :-)))
I don't think you need such an adapter on a Hades. From what I can see from various docs, the Hades has a keyboard ACIA with a PS/2 adapter connected. So if you disconnect the PS/2 adapter you can connect the TT keyboard directly to the ACIA serial pins.
