Need help Converting a Keyboard
« on: Wed, 10 May 2023, 20:28:08 »
I have two keyboards I want to convert to USB, a Fujitsu Leaf Spring keyboard and a Cherry M7 kb that was liberated from a type writer.

I really just need pointing to any documentation or how to build a converter.

Here's one way to do it. A search for "soarer's converter" will turn up lots of links of people showing how they did it and youtube videos also.

I know about Soarer's converter, I built one 6ish years ago.

Really what I need, is wiring a matrix up to a microcontroller like a Teensy 2.0+, and programming it.
