| Wiring 12 volts into a controller setup without destroying the board? |
| << < (3/3) |
| RayB:
I guess what you need is to build some sort of resistor circuit to step down the 12 volts to 5v or whatever voltage PS2 gamepads use (could be even less than 5v). wow, this post didn't help either, did it! |

the playstation interface actually has 2 power pins. all i could find atm is some specs on the diy interface but there is a 5v, (~3.6v), pin in the center which powers the controller and a 9v, (~7.6v), on the 3rd pin, depending which way you are looking at it, which supplies power for the dual shock motors. this line may be able to power your lights.. |
