Overview

This is a USB conversion adapter board kit (unsoldered) for turning compatible ThinkPad keyboards with TrackPoint to USB keyboards with mouse. ThinkPad keyboards are well researched and built. As technology advances, old ThinkPad laptops phased out but their keyboards are still fantastic to use. This keyboard adapter is developed for ThinkPad T60 keyboards and its compatible keyboards, including: T60p, Z61p, Z61t, Z60, T61, R400, R500, T400, T500, X41... as long as they use JAE AA01B-S040VA1-R3000 as receptacle.

*Make sure the same receptacle is soldered on your ThinkPad laptop's motherboard.

Components included: 1x AA01B-S040VA1-R3000 receptacle, 16x 0805 10k resistors, 1x CD74HC4017PW decade counter, 1x MCP23S17-E/SO 16-bit SPI expander

NOTE:

Make sure your keyboard's connector mate with the receptacle before purchasing. Description and appearance of the T60 receptacle can be found here.
