VGA-PS/2 Adapter Board Kit (#28075)
The VGA-PS/2 Adapter Board Kit makes it easy to add VGA, keyboard and mouse connections to any
breadboard project or prototype. PS/2 type keyboards and mice are supported by this kit as well as
standard VGA monitors. The VGA-PS/2 Adapter Board Kit was designed for use with the Propeller
microcontroller, and the I/O connections are designed to line up with P16 through P27 on the Propeller
chip. When using these I/O pins this board is directly compatible with the Keyboard, Mouse and VGA
objects that are also used with the Propeller Demo Board. These objects are available in the Propeller
Tool Library as well as on the Propeller Object Exchange.
