See also Fig. 1, wherein the ultimate system hardware structure of the computer system of display application fast detecting keyboard array short circuit of the present invention method.Shown in the 1st figure, this computer system comprises a main frame 3 and the display 4 that a computer keyboard 1, a keyboard controller 2, contain buffer zone, central processing unit and memory storage.This computer system can be the personal computer system of any pattern, for example is desktop, notes type or palmtop computer system.
In this computer system, computer keyboard 1 is coupled to keyboard controller 2, and keyboard controller 2 is coupled to main frame 3 again, and display 4 also directly is coupled with main frame 3.
At first in the memory storage of main frame 3, set up standard scan code data and keyboard matrix corresponding to computer keyboard 1, after a certain key in the computer keyboard 1 is pressed, because the line data line contacts with column data line, keyboard controller 2 will read this keyboard signal change and produce corresponding to this button by the dish scan code, and will cause the hardware interrupts IRQ1 of main frame 3, and replace traditional INT9H interrupt routine with self-defining interrupt service routine, directly keyboard scancode is sent in the buffer zone of main frame 3 then, utilize the comparison program of carrying out in the memory storage, main frame 3 will carry out a comparison action so that scan code in the buffer zone and the keyboard scancode database in the memory storage are compared, finding out scan code pairing according to comparison result is a certain position in the keyboard matrix, and can learn in keyboard 1 button it is which button is pressed.The user is according to the indication button of pressing 25 appointments one by one successively, after the button that a keyboard 1 is arranged is pressed by the user, when the button of keyboard 1 has the situation of short circuit to take place, Word message on the screen of display 4 will demonstrate the button of the keyboard 1 that is short-circuited, and demonstrate the row number of the column data line that is short-circuited, also or demonstrate the line number number of the line data line that is short-circuited.When the user according to prompting of the present invention after pressing 25 buttons, learn the linear position data that is short-circuited in can be in the screen of the display 4 shown Word message that goes out, and draw the button that is short-circuited in the keyboard 1.
Fig. 2 is the button of a keyboard 1 and the corresponding synoptic diagram of keyboard matrix, correspondence position in order to the pairing keyboard matrix of each button on the computer keyboard 1 of the quick keyboard testing method of explanation application the present invention, and number represent this key number pairing physical button, and the relation in correspondence with each other of keyboard matrix and line data line and column data line with key.In keyboard 1 operation of reality, the matrix structure of the keyboard matrix that is constituted with line data line and column data line comes the button of correspondent entity computer keyboard 1, and locational each key in the keyboard matrix number is represented the button of a corresponding computer keyboard 1.As shown in Figure 2, represent to be positioned at the opposite position of each key on the computer keyboard 1 and key number with the form of a keyboard matrix, each is arranged in button on the computer keyboard 1 all corresponding to a certain locational key of keyboard matrix number.For example be positioned at keyboard matrix ksin2-kout10 position key numbers 27 key corresponding to entity computer keyboard 1 [[, {] key, and the key that is positioned at keyboard matrix ksin12-kout11 position number be 58 key corresponding to entity computer keyboard 1 [Ctr1] key, and the key that is positioned at keyboard matrix ksin5-kout5 position number is that 35 key is corresponding to entity computer keyboard 1 [G] key.Because the key position number that keyboard matrix can hold is greater than the number of keys of entity computer keyboard 1, thereby there is no key number on some position in keyboard matrix, promptly there is no corresponding physical button, for example on the position of keyboard matrix ksin1-kout13, there is no any key number, so on this keyboard matrix position (ksin1-kout13), there is no any with corresponding entity key, press or lift a certain button of computer keyboard 1 as the user after, the key of button number and correspond to a certain position in the keyboard matrix that is constituted with column data line and line data line according to this, and keyboard controller 2 will be read a signal from this keyboard matrix position and change and produce corresponding scan code.
Fig. 3 is the button of a keyboard 1 and the corresponding synoptic diagram of scan code and keyboard matrix, when using quick keyboard testing method of the present invention in order to explanation, when by the button of lower keyboard 1 when testing, the value of each the pairing scan code in position on the keyboard matrix that is constituted with the row, column data line.Show when the button of pressing entity computer keyboard 1 is pressed among the figure, to produce a signal in the keyboard matrix that is constituted by the raw column data line and change, and keyboard controller 2 will be read the scan code that changes and produce correspondence from a signal of this keyboard matrix position.For example, as shown in FIG., after button [G] is pressed, the key of button [G] numbers 35 and correspond to ksin5-kout5 position in the keyboard matrix that is constituted with column data line and line data line according to this, and keyboard controller 2 will be read a signal from this keyboard matrix position and change and produce corresponding scan code 22.In the corresponding diagram of this journey column data line and keyboard matrix, the row, column data line of locating at the key of finding out each the position representative that is arranged in keyboard matrix that can understand number and place.For example, the pairing key of line data line ksin2-column data line kout9 number is 13, and the content of ksin2-kout1 representative is a key number is 32, and the button on the key number 32 pairing computer keyboards 1 is [S] key, can be via the key in the matrix keyboard form number and can obtain key in the corresponding computer keyboard 1.So after keyboard controller 2 obtains changing from the signal corresponding to the keyboard matrix of the button of computer keyboard 1, will produce corresponding scan code according to the key of pressing.And if a certain button is the form (line data line and the short circuit of line data line, or column data line and column data line short circuit) of short circuit, even then this button is not pressed by the user, and keyboard controller 2 will produce the scan code of corresponding this key.
Fig. 4 is the operational flowchart of an embodiment of the system of presentation graphs 1, and wherein display application fast detecting keyboard array of the present invention method is to judge the process program of keyboard short circuit.
As shown in FIG., at first when step 11, set up standard scan code data storehouse and one by one corresponding to the keyboard matrix of the button of keyboard 1 at main frame 3.Keyboard matrix is that line data line and the column data line by the matrix keyboard of ranks form constituted, and sets up the keyboard scancode database corresponding to each position in the keyboard matrix in the memory storage of main frame 3.After each key of computer keyboard 1 is pressed, with the sequence scanning sign indicating number that produces with respect to this button, and each key all has unique sequence scanning sign indicating number (representing with hexadecimal system), setting up these standard scan code data storehouses is that the scan code data of being pressed when being used for test computer keyboard 1 that key obtained are compared, to show the state of a certain key in the test process.
In step 12, the user changes the INT9H interrupt service routine with the interrupt service routine that designs, and can obtain the scan code of button behind the button of pressing computer keyboard 1.
Step 13 is item in order to judge whether the user presses certain key; If the user does not press any key, then enter step 20; If the user presses any key, then enter step 14.
In the step 14, because the user presses a certain key of computer keyboard 1, keyboard controller 2 will be read a signal and change and produce scan code corresponding to this button.Keyboard scanner 2 is directly sent into the scan code (with the sexadecimal bit representation) of gained in the buffer zone of main frame 3, to carry out the scan code comparison.
In step 15, the scan code data in the buffer zone are analyzed and handled to main frame 3, main frame 3 compares according to data that step 14 obtained and the standard scan code data storehouse that main frame 3 is set up in step 11, has only not only one of one or the scan code that only obtains by next key to judge the scan code that only obtains by next key.If after judging, the scan code of gained only has one then will enter step 16; Otherwise, if after judging, the scan code of gained not only one then will enter step 17.
In the step 16, because the scan code that is obtained only has one, main frame 3 will draw corresponding to a certain key on the physical keyboard of this scan code and not be short-circuited with other keys, then enter step 20.
In step 17, the scan code that is obtained is not only one as can be known, represents that then line data line and line data line are short-circuited, also or column data line and column data line be short-circuited.So main frame 3 will be according to more than one scan code of gained, judge that ammonium key corresponding to these scan codes is also to be positioned on the same column data line or to be positioned at on the data line line.If after judging, these scan codes are corresponding to the button that is positioned on the same column data line, then enter step 18; If after judging, after this scan code is corresponding to being positioned at the button on the data line line, then entering step 19.
In the step 18, on the screen of display 4, will demonstrate Word message,, and enter step 20 in order to other line data lines of the line data line short circuit at the key place that shows and press.
In the step 19, on the screen of display 4, will demonstrate Word message,, and enter step 20 in order to other column data lines of the column data line short circuit at the key place that shows and press.
In step 20, main frame 3 will judge whether whole buttons of computer keyboard 1 were all pressed.If whole buttons of computer keyboard 1 were all pressed, then proceed to next step 21; If whole buttons of computer keyboard 1 were not pressed entirely, then get back to step 13.
In the step 21, the user obtains the test result of computer keyboard 1 according to the Word message that shows on display 4 screens, and can easily obtain the short-circuit conditions of line data line and line data line, column data line and column data line, and will enter step 22.
In the step 22, the user has obtained the short-circuit conditions of computer keyboard 1, and will reduce interrupt service routine among the INT 9H, and the process of this fast detecting keyboard array that is through with.
Fig. 5 is a synoptic diagram, when using fast detecting keyboard array short circuit method of the present invention in order to explanation, after the user presses keyboard, will be on the screen of display 4 demonstrates short-circuit conditions between data line in the Word message mode.As shown in the figure, when testing keyboard 1, with the prompting user key of pressing 25 appointments one by one successively with fast detecting keyboard array short circuit method of the present invention.When pressing the key [Z] of key numbers 46, if 2 signal changes of receiving from key [Z] of keyboard controller, then main frame 3 only obtains the scan code of key [Z], and learns that key [Z] is not short-circuited with other buttons.And if keyboard controller 2 is not only received the signal change from key [Z], also receive signal change from the key [Q] of key numbers 17, then main frame 3 not only obtains the scan code of key [Z], also will receive the scan code of key [Q], and main frame 3 can learn that line data line ksin0 and line data line ksin1 are short-circuited according to built-in scan code database, and is short-circuited with Word message display line data line ksin0 and line data line ksin1 on the screen of display 4.If main frame 3 not only obtains the scan code of key [Z], and receive the scan code of the key [X] of key numbers 47, main frame 3 can learn that column data line ksout0 and column data line ksout1 are short-circuited according to built-in scan code database, and is short-circuited with Word message display column data line ksout0 and column data line ksout1 on the screen of display 4.The shown Word message that goes out as shown in Figure 6.
Now method how to use fast detecting keyboard array of the present invention is described and finds out short-circuit conditions between data line with computer keyboard 1 pairing keyboard matrix.
The situation that occurs short circuit between the line data line is discussed earlier, if short circuit appears in line data line ksin8 and line data line ksin9, as user when to press key number be 44 key, owing to the short circuit between the line data line makes the key of key numbers 57 also be in the state that is pressed.Because the key of the key of key numbers 44 and key numbers 57 is on the column data line ksout11 simultaneously, so when the key of key numbers 44 is pressed, line data line ksin8 will contact with column data line ksout11, but because short circuit appears in line data line ksin8 and line data line ksin9, so line data line ksin9 also contacts with column data line ksout11,, this measure is pressed and being equivalent to the key of key numbers 57.If short circuit appears in line data line ksin0 and line data line ksin1, as user when to press key number be 29 key, owing to the short circuit between the line data line makes the key of key numbers 76 also be in the state that is pressed.Because the key of the key of key numbers 29 and key numbers 76 is on the column data line ksout9 simultaneously, so when the key of key numbers 29 is pressed, line data line ksin0 will contact with column data line ksout9, because short circuit appears in line data line ksin0 and line data line ksin1, so line data line ksin1 also contacts with column data line ksout9,, this measure is pressed and being equivalent to the key of key numbers 76.In like manner, if short circuit appears in line data line ksin8 and line data line ksin10, as user when to press key number be 44 key, owing to the relation of the short circuit between data line makes the key of key numbers 60 also be in the state that is pressed.
So the user is if press the key of key numbers 44 earlier, and the scan code that can only read the key of key numbers 44 is not followed the scan code of the key of other keys number, and the row, column data line that then can judge the key present position of key numbers 44 is not short-circuited with other row, column data line.If ought only press the key of key numbers 44, in the time of but can obtaining the scan code of key of the key of key numbers 44 and key numbers 57, illustrated that then short circuit appears in line data line ksin8 and line data line ksin9, if ought only press the key of key numbers 44, in the time of really can obtaining the scan code of key of the key of key numbers 44 and key numbers 60, illustrated that then short circuit appears in line data line ksin8 and line data line ksin10.And for line data line ksin0 these line data lines to line data line ksin7, and line data line ksin8 is to these line data lines of line data line ksin15, all can find out the relation of the short circuit between the line data line each other in the same way, no longer discusses at this.
Short-circuit conditions for column data line, column data line ksout0 is to the short circuit test method between substantially the same these line data lines in line data line ksin0 to line data line ksin7 of the short-circuit test principle between column data line ksout10, difference only is the difference of row and column, so no longer discuss at this.
And with regard to column data line ksout10 and column data line ksout11, when pressing any key that is positioned on the column data line ksout11, because column data line ksout10 and the not shared identical line data line of column data line ksout11 be not so can have influence on the state of any key on the column data line ksout10.So whether column data line ksout10 and column data line ksout11 short circuit can't have influence on the normal use of keyboard.In like manner, the user needn't judge that column data line ksout11 and column data line ksout0 are to the column data line short circuit problem between ksout10.
Owing to do not have shared column data line between line data line ksin8 to ksin15 and line data line ksin0 to ksin7, so whether line data line ksin8 to ksin15 and line data line ksin0 to ksin7 short circuit therebetween can't have influence on the normal use of keyboard 1, so needn't judge therebetween line data line short circuit problem at this.
According to above analysis as can be known, when between detection line data line ksin8 to ksin15, whether line data line short-circuit conditions is arranged, only need press key seven keys such as [Fn] of the key [right Ctrl] of key [left Ctrl], key numbers 64 of the key [right Alt], key numbers 58 of the key [left Alt], key numbers 62 of the key [right shift], key numbers 60 of the key [left shift], key numbers 57 of key numbers 44 and key numbers 59 successively, whether successively the scan code that obtains these seven keys separately with whether has line data line short-circuit conditions to take place and can judge between line data line ksin8 to ksin15.
If detect line data line ksin0 to ksin7 between whether line data line short-circuit conditions is arranged, only need key eight keys such as ['] of the key [F7] of key [PgDn], key numbers 118 of the key [End], key numbers 86 of the key [8], key numbers 81 of the key [I], key number 38 these keys [K], key numbers 9 of the key [<] that press key numbers 53, key numbers 24 successively and key numbers 41, whether successively the scan code that obtains these eight keys separately with whether has line data line short-circuit conditions to take place and can judge between line data line ksin0 to ksin7.
If detect column data line ksout0 to ksout10 between whether the column data line short-circuit conditions is arranged, only need successively the key that press key numbers 27 [key of the key [4] of the key [7] of the key [K] of the key [L] of the key [=] of [], key numbers 13, key numbers 39, key numbers 38, key numbers 8, key numbers 5, key numbers 40 [; ], key 11 keys such as [A] of the key [S] of the key [D] of the key [F6] of key numbers 117, key numbers 33, key numbers 32 and key numbers 31, whether successively the scan code that obtains these 11 keys separately with whether has the column data line short-circuit conditions to take place and can judge between column data line ksout0 to ksout10.
Remove the key [K] of a key numbers 38 of repetition, the user only needs can to learn between line data line ksin8 to ksin15 by 25 keys, between line data line ksin0 to ksin7, the short circuit result between column data line ksout0 to ksout10, and obtain the short-circuit conditions of whole computer keyboard 1.
So when the prompting of user according to the method for fast detecting keyboard array of the present invention, behind 25 keys having pressed appointment successively, promptly finished detection, and the shown Word message that goes out on the screen of user according to display, can obtain the short-circuit condition of keyboard this computer keyboard.
Comprehensive above embodiment and method, we can obtain the method for fast detecting keyboard array of the present invention, be to utilize between some line data lines and line data line, and the short-circuit conditions between some column data line and column data line does not influence the normal use of keyboard, and when between two line data lines and line data line also or when being short-circuited situation between two column data lines and column data line, when pressing the arbitrary key that is positioned on the data line line, another key that obtains being positioned on another line data line is in situation about being pressed simultaneously, so do not need all to press for all keys on the data line line during test, and only need choose a key arbitrarily and press, can obtain two line data lines and line data line between short-circuit conditions, same reason can be applicable to the short-circuit test between two column data lines and data line.So under the situation of the decreased number of the key that test the time is pressed, can be after only pressing 25 keys, and can record the short-circuit condition of whole keyboards, so saved the test duration.And main frame is with after directly next keyboard scancode is done the contrast processing via keyboard controller, on the screen of display, inform the short-circuit test result of its key of being pressed of user, allow the user can finish keyboard detection easily, fast in the mode of Word message.The advantage of this fast detecting keyboard array method has:
1. the user need not to press the button on all keyboards, and can learn the short-circuit test result of whole computer keyboard under the situation of only pressing 25 keys.
2. the user is by behind next key, when this button and other keys are short-circuited, on the screen of display, show in the Word message mode, and after allowing the user read Word message, can learn the short-circuit condition between this key and other keys, alleviate the work load of user when testing the keyboard short circuit.
The above is a most preferred embodiment of the present invention only, is not in order to limit scope of the present invention; All other do not break away from the equivalence of being finished under the disclosed spirit and changes or modification, all should be included in the following claim.
