&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Pagină nouă&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Keyboard connected to a PS2 interface communicates through two ports:&lt;br /&gt;
* a clock port, which is constant 1 when the keyboard does not send data, and passes to 0 when the data port is a valid bit (which implies that the circuit will be sensitive to the negative front of that signal);&lt;br /&gt;
* A one-bit data port on which serial data is transmitted from the keyboard, valid on the negative signal of the clock signal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Data port is bidirectional (you can read more about how it works in the Nexys 2 reference manual &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt; [http://digilentinc.com/Data/Products/NEXYS2/Nexys2_rm.pdf Nexys 2 Manual] &amp;lt;/ ref &amp;gt;), but we are currently interested in the keypad transmission to the development board. At the touch of a key, the keyboard will send 11-bit code stamps representing:&lt;br /&gt;
* 1 start bit, which is always 0;&lt;br /&gt;
* 8 bits (1 byte = 1 byte), beginning with the most insignificant bit, representing a unique code associated with the key, hereinafter called &amp;#039;&amp;#039; scancode &amp;#039;&amp;#039;;&lt;br /&gt;
* 1 parity bit, called &amp;#039;checksum&amp;#039;, which is 1 if the number of bits 1 in &amp;#039;&amp;#039; scancode &amp;#039;&amp;#039; is par;&lt;br /&gt;
* 1 stop bit, which is always 1;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Warning&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Scancode&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is not the same as the ASCII code. The first one identifies a key, the second identifies a character.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The keyboard sends &amp;#039;&amp;#039; scancodes &amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the following situations:&lt;br /&gt;
* when a key is pressed, the scancode associated with that key is sent; some keys have an extended code that requires the transmission of two &amp;#039;&amp;#039; scancode &amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and in this case the first code is always 8&amp;#039;hE0 (both codes will be transmitted respecting the 1 bit start protocol, 8 bit for &amp;#039; &amp;#039;scancode&amp;#039;, 1 bit for &amp;#039;checksum&amp;#039; and 1 stop bit, so for extended code keys, a total of 22 bits will be transmitted); if the key is held down, the code is retransmitted once to approximately 100ms;&lt;br /&gt;
* when a key is released, before the &amp;#039;&amp;#039; scancode &amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the key is transmitted &amp;#039;&amp;#039; scancode &amp;#039;&amp;#039; 8&amp;#039;hF0, which indicates that that key has been released.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Extracting the &amp;#039;&amp;#039; scancode &amp;#039;&amp;#039; from the input bit sequence is done using a [[Automat | automat]].&lt;br /&gt;
