Changes

It is recommended and simple to build the firmware from source yourself by following the instructions in the README.

With make upload you can build and upload the firmware to your Arduino board just need arduino-cli installed.
Read instructions in README for more details.

With that said, binaries are provided here for convenience.

Installation Instructions

To upload the hex file to your Arduino board, follow these steps:

  1. Download the hex file from the release assets.
  2. Use a tool like avrdude to upload the hex file to your board.
  3. Example command for Arduino Leonardo: 
    avrdude -v -patmega32u4 -cavr109 -P/dev/ttyACM0 -b57600 -D -Uflash:w:a500kybhid.hex:i
  4. Replace /dev/ttyACM0 with the appropriate port for your system.

v1.1

Overview

This version enables the Amiga 500 keyboard to function fully as a USB HID device, including support for joystick inputs and macro capabilities. It allows you to connect your classic Amiga 500 keyboard to modern systems via USB, breathing new life into vintage hardware.

New Features

  • Macro Recording/Playback: You can now record keystroke macros directly from the keyboard. These macros can be saved and replayed, allowing for automation of repetitive tasks or complex command sequences.
