USB, PS/2 or RS-232: Choosing the Keyboard Interface for Embedded Systems

Legacy controllers, long cable runs and boot-time access all influence which interface your industrial keyboard should use.老旧控制器、长距离布线与开机阶段访问都会影响工业键盘接口的选择。

USB HID is the default for modern PCs and embedded boards: plug-and-play, no drivers and easy to add a pointing device on the same cable.

PS/2 is still requested for legacy industrial PCs and some BIOS environments where USB support is limited.

RS-232 / RS-485 suits PLCs and microcontrollers without a USB host, and RS-485 supports cable runs beyond 100 m.

All of our keyboard controllers can be built with any of these interfaces, or with a dual USB + PS/2 output.

USB HID 是现代 PC 与嵌入式主板的默认选择:即插即用、免驱动,还可在同一根线上集成指点设备。

PS/2 仍被老式工控机以及 USB 支持有限的部分 BIOS 环境所需要。

RS-232 / RS-485 适合没有 USB 主机的 PLC 与单片机,RS-485 支持超过 100 m 的布线距离。

我们的键盘控制器均可按上述任一接口生产,也可提供 USB + PS/2 双输出。
