    For Keyboard(at least:)

    In case of PS/2 the data is received by a microcontroller which is located on the


    motherboard
    When a key is pressed, the microcontroller stores the relevant information inside
    the I/O port 0x60 and sends an interrupt request IRQ 1 to the programmable
    interrupt controller (PIC).
