Otherwise the diodes do nothing. If you are attaching a keyboard with a diode per key, then the diodes on the keys perform the same function, in addition to preventing "ghosting", so the per-row diodes do not need to be installed. -### DIP switch and associated diodes -The DIP switch is optional. If you don't want to be able to set options via the -DIP switches, you can set all your preferences in the firmware, or just accept -the default behavior, and skip the DIP switch and Diodes D17-D20 and D24-D27. -### Second 74LS138 multiplexer (U4) -Only needed if you have more than 8 rows (including the DIP switch). - -### The 74LS07 hex buffer (U5) and pullup R6 -The 74LS07 is only needed if you are using LED2 or LED3 on the keyboard, or the OUT2 open -collector output. - -### Diodes D21, D22, D23 -Some keyboards may not wire all keys into the matrix. For example, some other -interface modules may assign special hardware functions to certain keys. Those -keys are brought directly to the keyboard connector. For the classic keyboard, -the POWER key, the '@' key, and the RUBOUT key are not directly wired. This -module wires them into the matrix via D21, D22, and D23, respectively. For -keyboards with no separately wired keys, these diodes may be omitted. - -### Resistors R1, R2, R5 -These resistors provide current limiting for up to three keyboard LEDs. If no -keyboard LEDs are installed, then these resistors can be ommitted.
