Keyboard and Mouse Connectors Overview
Your system uses a Personal System/2 (PS/2)-style keyboard and supports a PS/2-compatible mouse. Cables from both devices attach to 6-pin
miniature Deutsche Industrie Norm (DIN) connectors on the back panel of your computer. Either device can connect to either connector.
A PS/2-compatible mouse works identically to an industry-standard serial mouse or bus mouse except that it has its own dedicated connector,
which frees up both serial ports and does not require an expansion card. Circuitry inside the mouse detects the movement of a small ball and
relays the direction to the computer.
Mouse driver software can give the mouse priority with the microprocessor by issuing IRQ12 whenever a new mouse movement is made. The
driver software also passes along the mouse data to the application program that is in control.
Keyboard Connector
If you reconfigure your hardware, you may need pin number and signal information for the keyboard connector. Figure 7 illustrates the pin numbers
for the keyboard connector, and Table 6 lists and defines the pin assignments and interface signals for the keyboard connector.
