Simple Q - Which Logic IC?
Posted: Tue Dec 23, 2008 12:04 am
My electronics knowledge is very rusty - there's probably a simple answer like a flipflop and a -ve edge triggered gate...
I'm trying to control a computer keyboard with my feet (i play the guitar u see)
I tried taking my sock off and using my big toe.
The smell was OK... but I kept missing the keys
So I canibalised a keyboard, I took the keyboard controller circuitboard out and found the pins to connect to send the keycodes I needed. I built it into a toddler's choo-choo sound and light toy, so I can stamp on the driver's head and send an <ENTER> keystroke to the compooter
It all works great - but I need to send a series of keystrokes - like <Enter><Down><Enter> with one stomp on the choo choo funnel. So which ICs do I use?
I'm sure it's a really simple answer but as I said, my knowledge is very rusty.
Thanks,
Jason
