Section 3: Interfacing with External Components
Up until now, we've limited our connections to the outside world to buttons, switches, LEDs, and 7-segment displays. We are going to update them to make them more reusable and add some more interesting components to the mix. By the end of this section, we will be able to replace the buttons and switches with a PS/2 keyboard and replace the LEDs and 7-segment display with a Video Graphics Array (VGA) controller.
