DIY Amiga scroll wheel mouse driver

For Arduino based PS/2 Amiga mouse driver please refer to the original repository: https://github.com/paulroberthill/AmigaPS2Mouse

Altough majority of functionality is taken over from the original design, it does not support PS/2 Arduino based controller, but MSP430 based mouse controller that uses AVAGO sensor. For microcontroller please refer to the external repository: https://github.com/sq7bti/AVAGO/

NOTES

The Middle mouse button is emulated, it does not use the real middle mouse button pin. This is because this pin is used for communication between the Amiga and a mouse for scroll wheel etc.

THANKS

Source code is based on the code prepared by nogginthenog. https://github.com/paulroberthill/AmigaPS2Mouse

HOW IT WORKS?

Mouse controller sends code through four quadrature signals. Synchronisation with Amiga driver occurs at the falling edge of MMB pin.

  • joy0dat - code read from hardware register (after xor'ing with previously read value)
  • xor - xor applied on bits X0 and X1 (Y0 and Y1) - see elowar for details
  • swap - position Y0 and Y1 swapped
  • Hamm - code hamming distance
      • problematic codes - potential occurrence when traditional mouse connected.
