Keyboard Interface
The VGB board supports an AT-style extended keyboard with an integrated
trackball. The keyboard interface is a bidirectional, synchronous, serial interface.
The keyboard communicates with the UART on the VGB via the clock and data
lines. The keyboard input uses a standard 5-pin DIN connector. The Keyboard
connector pin assignments are shown in Table 6-4.
