I have an xwhatsit USB-C controller that I purchased from Model F Labs LLC (https://www.ebay.com/itm/324956507598) and I would like to know if it can be used on my IBM beam spring 3727 keyboard?
I have already used this controller on my IBM 5251 and checked in QMK Configurator (http://35.164.28.200:5000/#/xwhatsit/ib ... ev4/LAYOUT) that there is the option "xwhatsit/ibm/3101_3727_3278_87key/xwhatsit_rev4".

Yes per xwhatsit it should work with all non-displaywriter variants, with a few exceptions for boards requiring custom PCBs.

Here is xwhatsit's documentation for reference: https://static.wongcornall.com/ibm-capsense-usb/
