I did look into them before posting. But I think the keypad they are talking about is the one that we usually use in DIY projects. The keypad I mean is a COMPUTER NUMERIC KEYPAD, like the one on a keyboard at the right side without the other buttons like the letters and function buttons. Not unless they are interfaced the same with the standard keypad.
yeah, it is definitely possible..not only the keypad but the whole keyboard...
just go through the protocols for the at keyboard the older ones with the ps/2 connector...usb ones are the difficult cases...

You may also give a look to this if you feel comfortable with atmega..anyways you may give a look to the keyboard interfacing section over there.

I had read about the keyboard scan codes and I'll only be needing the numeric ones.
Thanks for the link.
I have already researched a lot and I just can't find a sample that I'm familiar with.
if you download the Microchip USB Framework for PIC18, PIC24 & PIC32

you will find example code for attaching a USB keyboard to a Microchip Explorer 16 board
on my PC is it in directory
C:\Microchip Solutions v2011-10-18\USB\Host - HID - Keyboard
the example PIC24 code is for a PIC24FJ256GB110. However, it should be fairly easy to adapt it for a lower cost PIC24 such as the PIC24FJ64GB002 PIC24FJ64GB002
which can be used with Microchip's new microstick II

Thanks for the tips and information. I'll be going for the ps/2 connection. None of the MCU stated above is available in my area.
I found the pin config of ps/2, in the library the 5v should be pulled up. In wikipedia it said +5 V DC at 275 mA. So I need a resistor value of 18.18181818181818. Could I just pull it up with 10k resistor?
