Here's a picture of the keyboard controller. Note the break in the PCB is not the split of the Matrix. Confused me at first.

Keyboard Controller

Here is the matrix for the keyboard I used. It only took me 2 hours to lay out, with the help of my 1 and 4 year old assistants. I chose to trace all the wires on the circuit boards, rather than hooking up 2 wires to see what they did. I thought it would be easier, knowing I would be interrupted multiple times.
