    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Yep, they seem to work in the same way as the daughterboards of Steam Deck's K-Silver Joysticks. So, basically, it seems to be possible to hook K-Silver's daughterboard up as I suggested earlier. We'll have to follow his bilibili channel for further updates. It may only be available in China...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Unfortunately, it does not work like that. Calibration is controlled and adjusted by the chip itself. Steam deck would only provide visual interface in this regard. A simple desoldering of a thumbstick alone after the calibration on a Steam Deck would not provide the required effect, as the...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    I have received chipped version of joysticks. Well, the only suggestion I have is to solder thumbsticks as is to the Pro Contoller's mothetboard, but cut the axis traces and overtake them by wiring the daughterboard and rewiring output contacts of daughterboard back to Pro Controller's...

    Sadly, I was given a fake number promising to arrive by 25.02.2023... The new tracking number states that the package is still on the way🤔

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    I guess this is a DAC chip (with SPI Flash and Voltage Controller Combined) that is actually adjusting for hall sensors those are soldered to those 3-pin connections per axis. I am an amateur in the field of microcontroller electronics, so it is better to ask or wait for an expert's viewpoint.

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    I am still expecting mine in 2 days...my local post is working at a turtle's pace... @Retro2Modern, do you have a chip installed on daughterboards of your joysticks?

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Thanks for asking. I am still waiting. Forecasted ETA is 25.02.2023. Looking forward to get them installed on Pro Controller ASAP. As for the voltage adjustment and SPI chips those are found on daughterboards, I think it is possible to bypass voltage adjustment chip to get Pro Controller...

    Hardware Hall Effect sensor joycon sticks on Amazon

    In my case, as I have informed here earlier, I attempted to replace GuliKit thumbsticks/stems and internal axis mechanisms with the original Nintendo parts. The movement became buttery smooth, but it resulted in increased dead zones. Then I decided to leave everything as GuliKit intended except...

    Hacking [Tool] Joy-Con Toolkit

    That is exactly what I faced when I was playing with raw data and successfully calibrated my K-Silver hall effect joysticks to a center position. Writing these new values to SPI of a joycon does nothing in regards to user calibration. Upon reconnecting to the tool the recalibrated data seems...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Here is an interesting video and proof of concept about GuliKit Steam Deck Joystick Replacements installed on PS4 controller. It may become available as an open-source project thanks to Marius Heier promises. This is what @Retro2Modern was curious about and maybe you can both collaborate on...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Wow! @victorstk, thank you for the video and looking forward to the voice-over! That was a quick response full of resourceful info! It is not out of unusual seeing that the right stick had better success in calibration, as it is all about quality of magnets, their structure, components and...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Ignore this model all the way. It would be hard to make it compatible with 3-pin per axis connection of traditional controller boards, such as Switch Pro Controller and Xbox motherboards, etc. Getting my self-contained joysticks pretty soon to give you further updates on this project...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    This one is offtopic, since @victorstk is explaining having full-sized hall joysticks from K-Silver (Steam Deck replacements) installed on his Pro Controller. It is unusual to see that these K-Silver joysticks have run out of stock recently. Maybe GuliKit took over and will be releasing...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Looking forward to watch the video asap. Can you please share the link to the joysticks you have purchased? Because there are 2 different models: 1. Self-contained model without a calibration chip; 2. Joysticks with programmable chips installed on daughter boards.

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    The link for purchasing these joysticks was provided in the first post of this thread. There is no need to reverse engineer only if you are not planning to make it an open-source project😄 Once I get these sticks, I will try to report the MCU model number, if there will be any imprinted...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Sure, and this thread is just right for what you are inquiring. K-Silver joysticks have a built-in analog to digital converter in the compartment at the base, where you would normally find connections of the potentiometer. And there is a proof of concept, as well as installation videos on PS5...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Yes, you are right. This happens if you do no modification to these compensators, because straight from the factory they have bad incorrect variable resistors installed, those give you a range of adjustment up to 50kOhm resistance, whereas, it is ideally to have up to 500kOhm adjustment range...

    Hall Joysticks On Switch Pro Controller

    Just received a genuine used Switch Pro Controller in perfect condition for 40$. Hall joysticks have not been shipped out of China, yet... Well, while waiting, I may make some STLs for Fixture S1/HotFix X1 attachments built into side shell of the controller🙃
