PS2 Keyboard on ESP32- which pins are suitable?

Postby hbanko » Tue Jan 30, 2018 9:42 am

Hi,

I am planning to use a PS/2 keyboard on an ESP32. The library I found is designed for an ESP32 but what is not clear to me is what pins would be compatible with it (suitable for the task). Below a link to it:

https://github.com/michalhol/ps2kbdlib

I have tried these Pins together with the Keyboard but not success.

#define KEYBOARD_DATA 13
#define KEYBOARD_CLK 15

Also randomly tried other pins. Seems only certain pins can do what is needed but I have no clue which ones. Just trying my luck seems not to work :-). What makes it increasingly difficult is that some of the pins are already in use as I am running at the same time an ILI9341 display on it:

#define _cs 17 // goes to TFT CS
#define _dc 16 // goes to TFT DC
#define _mosi 23 // goes to TFT MOSI
#define _sclk 18 // goes to TFT SCK/CLK
#define _rst 5 // goes to TFT RESET
#define _miso // Not connected

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,
Sorry to answer so late.
Data pin should work with all pins, clock pin should work with all pins which support interrupts (I have not used ESP32 for a while so I'm not sure which do that).

If it's still live, can you post here your code?
