By following this guide and replacing the potentiometers with Hall effect sensor sticks, you can permanently fix PS5 joystick drift and enjoy a controller that performs like new for years to come.

It’s something [mircemk] demonstrates, with an Arduino-powered magnetic field strength meter that uses a UGN 3503U Hall effect device. The circuit is extremely simple, comprising the sensor, an ...

A third Hall effect sensor is used to measure a throttle stick positioned on the side of the box. An Arduino micro reads the sensors and converts the analog signal to USB.

It's all about the relative failure rate. My understanding is that drift can and does happen on pretty much any non-Hall joystick, but that the Switch Joy-Cons were particularly susceptible based ...

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

The Switch was notorious for its Joy-Con stick drift, and Nintendo wants to change that What are Hall-effect joysticks and why are they important for Switch 2?
