Available on all microcontrollers.

Explanation:

PS2ReadByte will read a byte from the PS/2 bus. It will return the byte, or 0 if no data was returned by the PS/2 device.

The PS/2 bus will normally be held in the inhibit state. PS2ReadByte will uninhibit the bus for 25 ms. If a response is received, it will be read. Then, the bus will be placed back in the inhibit state.
