Matrix - Joystick

1 Introduction

Joystick

• The matrix-joystick module is a two-axis stick module. It consists of two Sliding rheostats and one button. It has two analog outputs and one digital output. Its positional states can be measured as X and Y axis values as the calibrated resistance of the two potentiometers.
• When you move the joystick the sliding rheostats' resistance will change and the corresponding x/y values will change too. When you push the joystick the SW level will turn low.

2 Features

• X and Y axis, and one button
• 2.54mm spacing pin
• PCB dimension(mm): 24 X 32

• Pin Description:

Pin	Description
GND	Ground
5V	Supply Voltage 5V
SW	Button
X	X Axis
Y	Y Axis

3 Basic Device Operation

• It has two analog outputs and one digital output. The two analog outputs are measured as X and Y values as the calibrated resistance of the two potentiometers. The digital output is measured as Z value indicating whether or not the button is pressed.
  
• We extend all three outputs: X, Y and Z and users can use them easily.

4 Applications

The Matrix-Joystick module outputs analog signals which can be converted to digital signals with an ADC converter e.g. the Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter.
For more details about the Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter module refer to wiki: Matrix_-_Analog_to_Digital_Converter.

5 编译运行测试程序

启动开发板并运行Debian系统，进入系统后克隆Matrix代码仓库：

$ apt-get update && apt-get install git
$ git clone https://github.com/friendlyarm/matrix.git

克隆完成后会得到一个名为matrix的目录。

编译并安装Matrix：

$ cd matrix
$ make && make install

运行测试程序：

$ matrix-joystick

注意：此模块并不支持热插拔，启动系统前需要确保硬件连接正确。
运行效果如下：

x=1280 y=1280

拨动摇杆可以检测到x和y轴的变化。

6 代码说明

所有的开发板都共用一套Matrix代码，本模块的测试示例代码为matrix-joystick，内容如下:

int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
    int i = 0;
    int x, y, board;
 
    x = y = 0;
    if ((board = boardInit()) < 0) {
        printf("Fail to init board\n");
        return -1;
    }
 
    system("modprobe "DRIVER_MODULE);
    signal(SIGINT, intHandler);
    for (i=0; i<PS2_READ_TIMES; i++) {
        if (pcf8591Read(1, &x) != -1 && pcf8591Read(2, &y) != -1) {
            printf("x=%4d y=%4d\n", x, y);
        }
    }
    system("rmmod "DRIVER_MODULE);
    return 0;
}
