The Goog isn't being much help with pinouts.
Anybody have a pinout
spec for the //e?
Y
I don't even much care for the Apple ][ line, but I did buy the //e
techref when I saw it...
Here's a pinout for the 26 pin keyboard connector :
1 : Y0 2 : Y1
3 : +5V 4 : Y2
5 : N/C 6 : Y3
7 : N/C 8 : Y4
9 : N/C 10 : Y5
11 : Ctrl/ 12 : Y8
13 : Ground 14 : X0
15 : N/C 16 : X2
17 : X7 18 : X1
19 : X5 20 : X3
21 : X4 22 : Y9
23 : Y6 24 : Shift/
25 : Y7 26 : X6
There is also a keypad connector, which is an 11 pin SIL thing. The
pinout is :
1 : Y0
2 : Y1
3 : Y3
4 : Y4
5 : Y2
6 : Y5
7 : N/C
8 : X7
9 : X4
10 : X6
11 : X5
The Xn and Yn lines are the connections to the 2 'sides' of the switch
matrix. Unfortunately, I can't find anything in the manual which gives a
diagram of which key occupies each postiion in the matrix, and while, in
the //e, the keyboard is scanned by a fairly standard encoder chip, the
outputs of that go into an EPROM which effectively re-maps the keyboard.
So I can't help you there.
I beleive the shift and control keys are connected between the
appropriate pins on the connector and ground, so those are easy...
