PS/2 Keyboard - OSDev Wiki
The PS/2 Keyboard is a device that talks to a PS/2 controller using serial communication. Ideally, each different type of PS/2 controller driver should provide some sort of standard/simple "send byte/receive byte" interface, and the PS/2 Keyboard driver would use this interface without caring about lower level details (like what type of PS/2 ...

Interrupts - OSDev Wiki
Interrupts are signals from a device, such as a keyboard or a hard drive, to the CPU, telling it to immediately stop whatever it is currently doing and do something else. For example, a keyboard controller can send an interrupt when a character key was pressed.
PS2 Keyboard - OSDev Wiki - mnml's vault - Obsidian Publish
The PS/2 Keyboard accepts commands and sends responses to those commands, and also sends scan codes indicating when a key was pressed or released. Keep in mind that these scan codes (from the tables below) may be altered (i.e. translated) by the PS/2 controller, depending on the controller's settings.
