Usb => Gameport v0.1

Author: ChrisDeadman

Convert a USB HID device (joystick, gamepad) into a Gameport joystick with the power of arduino :-)

Note: This is obsolete and has been superseded by usb-to-ps2-gameport-hat.

Example Device

Notes

  • Supports Xbox wireless receiver
  • Watchdog timer is enabled and configured to 4sec
  • You need to lower USB_XFER_TIMEOUT (e.g. to 1000) in UsbCore.h (part of the used platform library)
    Usb.Task() may otherwise take longer than the watchdog's timeout and the chip will just reset over and over
  • Diagnostic information is available via Serial1 @ 115200 8N1 (can be disabled in HIDDescriptionParser.h)
  • Use an USB OTG cable to connect your device to the board
  • SPI pins SCK(13) and SDO(11) are used to control two MCP4251 (2x dual digital potentiometer) for 4 axis
  • Chip-select pins for both MCP4251 are set to pins 2 and 3 - can be changed in main.cpp
  • Button pins are set to pins 4,5,6,7 - can be changed in main.cpp
  • Don't forget that SAMD21 has 3.3V rated pins, so you should really use level-converters to avoid any damage

(Known) Limitations

  • The HID descriptor parsing is work in progress so it might not work as intended with all devices

Supported Arduino Boards

  • ATSAMD21G18 (developed on SparkFun SAMD21 Mini Breakout)

Release notes

Usb => Gameport v0.1

  • Initial version
