Pin layout
The joystick has a total of 5 pins: power supply, ground, X-axis output, Y-axis output, and switch output pin.
Joystick Pin | Details |
---|---|
GND | Ground pin. Should be connected to the Ground of the circuit. |
VCC | Power supply pin (typically 5V or 3.3V ). |
VRX | The X-axis analog output pin varies its voltage based on the joystick's horizontal position, ranging from 0V to VCC as the joystick is moved left and right. |
VRY | The Y-axis analog output pin varies its voltage based on the joystick's vertical position, ranging from 0V to VCC as the joystick is moved up and down. |
SW | Switch pin. When the joystick knob is pressed, this pin is typically pulled LOW (to GND). |
