Description:
These are basically the opposite of boards like Toodles' Cthulhu or the PS360 which take the button/joystick wire signals and turn them into USB. This takes input from your USB 360 or PS3 controller and turns that into discrete button/joystick wire signals. You could use this to control any number of projects from Superguns to robotics, to anything you can imagine that you'd like to control with your digital 360 or PS3 joystick!
They use essentially the same circuit and firmware as that of the UD-CPS2 (which has run at many major Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo and Vampire Savior competitions over the last couple of years including X-Mania USA).
Screw Terminal Version Features:
- Terminal Blocks for solder free wiring (signal layout intentionally similar to MC Cthulhu so you can mate them for fun things like TE stick on SNES)
- USB A Socket
- Alternate header for USB signals - for people who don't want to use the on-board USB socket
- Indicator LED - bi-color, red/green
- Alternate header for LED signals - for people who don't want to use the on-board LED
- Pull-Up Selection Jumper - allows for pulling button/joystick signals up to +5V or +3.3V, depending on the application
- Player Select Jumpers - tell the joystick to light up the appropriate controller LED (can be set for P1-P4)
- Custom button mapping - for 6-8 action buttons (same as what you'd expect for Street Fighter series)
- Firmware can be updated via USB for future features/improvements
15 Pin Sub-D Version Features:
- Same as above, minus the Screw Terminals, Aux ports, and supports 6 action buttons vs 8
- Compact housing to protect electronics and look oh so sexy

- Clear Laser etched/cut faceplate to keep out debris and allow indicator LED visibility
Price / Ordering:
Price is $35 for the Screw Terminal version and $40 for the DB15 version. I've been selling these via word of mouth, but should have distribution sorted out before the end of the year (2014) with Paradise Arcade Shop. I will post up when they are available there.
Future:
I will continue to improve the firmware features as I have time.
Let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions!
