The PS2Adapt™ UR6HCPSP40 is an extremely low-power protocol interpreter that can link an AT / PS/2-compatible Human Input Device (HID), such as a keyboard, mouse, bar-code reader, etc. to any host system equipped with either an asynchronous serial interface or the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI).

The IC UR6HCPSP40 was designed specifically for RISC-based portable device s that are limited to asynchronous and SPI interfaces. The PS2Adapt™ allows designers to easily connect PS/2 devices to their system.

The PS2Adapt™ UR6HCPSP40 emulates all the functions of the 8042 keyboard controller which typically resides on the AT / PS/2 motherboard. The,extremely low-power PS2Adapt™ will power down even between key presses and bewteen mouse reports. UR6HCPSP40 Typical power consumption is only 1 A operating between 3-5 Volts.

The UR6HCPSP40 extremely low-power boasts 4 external PS/2 ports that support the hot-plug connection of an external PS/2 keyboard or mouse, including MouseWheel, 5-button mice and touch screens in absolute mode.

Each of four external PS/2 ports also support more than 140 key scan codes including international language keys, internet keys, and power keys. The PS2Adapt™ UR6HCPSP40 also offers 4 reserved pins for LED functions.
