Hello all,
I'm completely new to this, but I have a specific project in mind! I'd like to build a usb gamepad with 10 buttons, a directional pad, and two analog sticks. I'm planning on using the psp analog stick because it's small and this gamepad will mostly be for retro gaming.
Here's a link to the joystick http://www.amazon.com/PSP-1000-Joystick-Analog-Assembly-Replacement/dp/B00170JDZU
My big problem is with the buttons--is there some sort of matrix or keyboard processor that I can use to get 10 buttons and a d pad working on the teensy? I was thinking of using an old ps /2 type keyboard and rewiring the keys, but they all have such big circuits!
I'd appreciate any help I can get!
