https://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/xt-at-ps2-terminal-to-usb-converter-with-nkro-t2510.html
#### Keyboard protocols supported:
- XT (scan code set 1)
- AT (scan code set 2)
- PS/2 (MF2) (extended scan code set 2)
- Terminal e.g. 3179/318x/319x (scan code set 3)
#### Configurable Features: (v0.997+)

- Auto-detection of the keyboard type
- XT and AT boards are remapped correctly for PrtSc etc.
- 1000Hz polling using Full Speed USB
- Suspend and resume support
- Media and Power key support
- Jump to bootloader function (update firmware without pressing the reset button) (v1.0+)
## Hardware
You need
- ATMega32U4 Microcontroller/Arduino. E.g. Arduino Pro Micro
- PS/2 female connector
PS/2 -> Arduino
- Data (green) -> PD0 (Pro Micro: 3)
- CLK (white) -> PD1 (Pro Micro: 2)
- 5V (red) -> 5V
- GND (black) -> GND
##### Arduino Pro Micro pinout
