Breakout board for PS/2 Socket

Do you know PS/2? I bet you know the purple color and green color socket at the back of desktop (maybe desktop back in 2000?) It uses the super fast communication protocol, the SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface). Anyway this is the bread board friendly breakout board for the MiniDIN-6 connector. Board brings out all 6 pins to a 0.1" spaced connector. Use this breakout for your next PS/2 keyboard or mouse project! Board comes with the MiniDIN-6 socket. You can plug your PS/2 mouse or PS/2 keyboard, of course program is needed :)

We found a few project using PS/2 socket, credit to the author/s:

• PS/2 with mBed
• PS/2 Mouse Interface with Arduino
• The PS/2 Keyboard Interface
