Figure 17.4 Receive Timing

17.4.2 Transmit Operation

In a transmit operation, KCLK (clock) is an output on the keyboard side, and KD (data) is an

output on the chip (system) side. KD outputs a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB-first), an odd parity bit,

and a stop bit, in that order. The KD value is valid when KCLK is high. A sample transmit

processing flowchart is shown in figure 17.5, and the transmit timing in figure 17.6.
