Overview

Product Overview

The KY-023 Dual Axis Joystick Module (PS2 style) is a simple analog joystick for Arduino projects that gives you two analog axes (X and Y) plus a push-button click when you press the stick down. It is perfect for building remote controls for robots, menu navigation for displays, camera pan/tilt projects, and interactive games or demos. Because it outputs standard analog voltages, it is easy to read with Arduino ADC pins (and with ESP32 as well), making it a go-to input device for DIY controllers.

Questions & answers

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The module provides two analog axis outputs that can be read by Arduino ADC pins and ESP32 ADC-capable pins, plus a push-button signal. Raspberry Pi boards need an external ADC because they do not include analog inputs.
ShillehTek supplies this breakout in a ready-to-use format with headers already soldered, so it can be connected with standard jumper wires. You still need to wire it to the correct controller pins and write code to read the inputs.
Connect the X and Y axis outputs to ADC-capable inputs, the button output to a digital input, and connect power and ground. Match the module’s supply and signal levels to the development board you are using.
Yes. The two analog axes are commonly used for direction or speed control, while the stick press can act as a select or mode button. It suits robot remotes, display menus, camera pan/tilt controls, and simple games.
Analog joysticks often do not rest at the exact midpoint on every reading. Calibrate the center value in your code and add a small dead zone so minor drift does not trigger movement or menu changes.
