KEYPADA_W - Wishbone Keypad Controller

Figure 1. KEYPADA_W - Wishbone Keypad Controller.

The Keypad Controller component (KEYPADA_W) provides a simple interface between a host processor and a 16-key (4Row x 4Column) keypad, such as that located on the NanoBoard-NB1. The Controller is fully synchronous.

Features at-a-glance

• Fully synchronous design

• Reset under processor control

• 1 MHz operational frequency

• Continuous scanning of the keypad matrix – no triggering required

• Inherent key debouncing (16ms)

• Wishbone-compliant

Availability

From an OpenBus System document, the Keypad Controller component can be found in the Peripherals region of the OpenBus Palette panel.

From a schematic document, the KEYPADA_W component can be found in the FPGA Peripherals (Wishbone) integrated library (FPGA Peripherals (Wishbone).IntLib), located in the \Library\Fpga folder of the installation.
