It's likely from an Apple II or IIe, and I think Alps, but I could be wrong.

I'm modeling various Apple II parts on Thingiverse, and I'm pretty sure I've misidentified this post there, so I'm looking for guidance on what it ...

that is to say, the keyboard includes the matrix decoder on-board, so what it sends to the logic board is ASCII keystrokes. later models (Apple IIe and on) had the decoder/keyboard ROM on the logic board, so the keyboard was just the matrix of switches, and it was decoded on the logic board.

@TheDoctor - I _do_ preflash the modules. I wouldn't assume customers want to install the Arduino IDE, go through the trouble of also getting the TeensyDuino library, as well as the keyboard/keypad libraries.

If you want to send me a Lisa keyboard to experiment with, I'll be glad to get cracking on ...

my RetroConnector Shields come flashed with the latest version of my firmware, and can easily be updated via USB.

I haven't built anything for the 128/512/Plus keyboard yet. I'm working my way up to those and ADB.
