Product details
This Joystick Breakout Board allows you to use a 2-channel joystick with your Arduino.
It provides 2 independent potentiometer outputs for X and Y as well as a separate on/off switch activated by pressing the joystick.This breakout board makes it easy to mount a thumb joystick.It is an analog joystick – more accurate and sensitive than just ‘directional’ joysticks. Since its analog, you’ll need two analog reading pins on your microcontroller to determine X and Y. Having an extra digital input will let you read the switch. An LED is provided which glows when the switch is pressed. The pack comes in three parts – the joystick itself, a soft-touch rubber ‘hat’ and a nicely designed breakout board.
