Interfacing the PC's Keyboard
IBM Keyboards. Not really an interesting topic, one would expect. So why would you want to interface the Keyboard? The IBM keyboard can be a cheap alternative to a keyboard on a Microprocessor development system. Or maybe you want a remote terminal, just couple it with a LCD Module. If so, then this page has all the required information to get you started.

The following is a well-tested/verified collection of scan codes.  These are the actual codes sent by your keyboard before any translation occurs.
Scan codes for the 101/102/104 -key keyboard (SET 1)
Scan codes for the 101/102/104 -key keyboard (SET 2)
Scan codes for the 101/102/104 -key keyboard (SET 3)

Interfacing the Serial Port - Parts 1 and 2
Explains the pin diagrams of the RS-232 Port and the 8250 & Compatible UARTs. Includes information on handshaking, Null Modems, DTE/DCE Speeds, flow control, types of UART's etc. The second part of this series gives details of the Serial Ports Registers for the PC (8250 to 16750 UARTs) and the Serial Port's Addresses in the PC.

Interfacing the Serial Ports - Parts 3 and 4
Starts with example programs written in C, using both the Interrupt Driven and Polling methods for the PC. Gives details of how the programs work and how they can be changed to suit your requirements, i.e. Changing addresses, FIFO Buffers, IRQ's etc. It then gives details of interfacing your own projects to the RS-232 Port using MAX-232's, CDP6402 UART's and Micro-Controllers.

         Interfacing the IBM PC Parallel Printer Port

 

 

Interfacing the Standard Parallel Port
Describes interfacing the Standard Parallel Port (SPP). Includes a general introduction to Parallel Ports (SPP, EPP & ECP) and their standards. Looks at reading 8 bits of data using the bi-directional port, and using other methods such as reading a nibble at a time etc. Also details the Parallel Ports interrupts. Programming examples using C are included along with a detailed description of the Parallel Port's Registers.

Interfacing the Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP)
Interfacing the Enhanced Parallel Port is the first page, out of the Parallel Port Series which has been revised. This page, devoted entirely to the EPP port, now includes waveforms plus a more detailed description of this Port.

Interfacing the Extended Capabilities Parallel Port (ECP)
Interfacing the Extended Capabilities Parallel Port has just been revised. This page focuses on the Extended Capabilities Parallel Port (ECP), and now includes waveforms plus a more detailed description of this Port

USB in a Nutshell - Making sense of the USB standard
USB in a Nutshell is a six part article detailing the Universal Serial Bus. It currently provides details on the connectors, electrical, suspend currents, speed identification, USB packet types, endpoints, pipes, endpoint/transfer types including Control, Interrupt, Isochronous and Bulk Transfers, USB descriptors including Device, Configuration, Interface, Endpoint and String descriptors, the USB Setup Packet and Standard Device, Standard Interface and Standard Endpoint Requests.
Now includes an example - PDIUSBD11 connected to a PIC16F87x

USB1.1 Integrated Circuits
We look at some of the USB1.1 Microcontrollers and I.C's on the market today along with some cheap yet nifty development boards. This includes the Cypress EZ-USB Family, Philip's PDIUSBD11, PDIUSBD12 & PDIUSBP11, FTDI's FT8U232AM and FT8U245AM, Motorola 68HC705JB3 & 68HC705JB4, National Semiconductor's USBN9602 and Microchip's PIC16C745 & PIC16C765 with links to the USB USB-IF Developers Discussion Forum and other informative sites.

USB 2 Integrated Circuits
USB 2.0 with a maximum speed of 480Mb/s is getting closer to reality. Detailed here are some of the more popular USB 2.0 silicon devices and a status on how Microsoft is going with their EHCI USB2 drivers for Windows XP and Windows 2000 operating systems.

USB Device Driver Development
Provides information on where to find information for developing USB device drivers.

USB Protocol Analysers
With USB's differential bus and highly complex protocol, what do you do when you want to monitor what is going on between your device and the host. You can't just grab the digital storage oscilloscope and probe around like you could with less complex traditional serial buses. We look at the new Ellisys USB Tracker 110 which will fit even the tightest of budgets.
