MFG UNIVERSAL JOYSTICK

[MS Galileo]

Milan qui a developpe le palonnier MFG dont on avait causer ici y a quleques temps http://www.checksix-forums.com/viewtopi ... 3&t=184159 va bientot proposer un controleur nomme UNIVERSAL JOYSTICK

Voici les principales caracteristiques :

Electronic device development lasted so long because of many factors. Scope of usage is not nearly limited to MFG Crosswind pedals, It's capable to drive many future projects of MFG team, or other producers, as well as UNIVERSAL JOYSTICK conotroler device...only difference being the firmware on device, reusing same hardware. MFG team explored many magnetic sensors on the market and made numerus prototypes and testings before new electronic device was put into production.
Further delay was coused by last minute decision to have a "smart" universal software that will be used for all possible options of electronics... auto enabled depending on currently loaded firmware in electronics.

Electronics code name is MFG SiMM8Rge . I give you the glimpse of it's characteristics
- Usb B type connection ( like printers) + additional pins for external usb connection ( or 5v power)
- USB hid bootloader for quick and easy firmware upgrade
- 1x onboard digital Hall sensor of 3rd generation ( Melexis MLX90363 triaxis with 14 bit output resolution)
- 3x connections to connect additional 3x digital SPI devices ( MLX90363 sensors or possibly other )
( Digital sensor MLX90363 can be software reprogrammed to be used in rotational, linear od joystick configuration, as well as other features)
- 8x Analog inputs with 12bit resolution ( for sensors or potentiometers)
- 2x6 pins + 2x dedicated GND pins for BUTTON CONNECTION MODES - can be selected :
- disabled
- 12 buttons connected directly
- 32 buttons + HAT connected in matrix
- pins will be reconfigurable for other modes...using so called "shift registar" chips... to allow connection of TM Warthog grip and throttle...as well as act as universal button extender
- pins will be reconfigurable for use of ENCODERS ( interface has yet to be made for that purpose)
