The joystick is a 'self-centering' analog-type. That means it basically acts like two 10K

potentiometers, one for up/down and another for left/right. It has a built-in flex cable that can

plug right into a fine pitch (0.5mm) connector. The four pins connect to power, ground and then

two analog outputs. As the joystick is moved around, the voltage will follow the motion. When

you release the joystick it will center itself.

The connector is very fine pitch, and not easy to solder to - so we suggest using our 4-pin breakout board

to make it easier to connect to a breadboard (it is not included!)
