The PCB-Mounted Joystick Module is a compact dual-axis input control designed for steering, menu navigation, games, and interactive electronics projects. The joystick measures movement across both the X and Y axes and also includes a built-in push button when the stick is pressed down, giving students multiple input options from a single component.
What's Included:
- PCB-Mounted Joystick Module – Dual-axis analog joystick with integrated push-button input.
- 5-Pin Male Header – Standard header connection for VCC, GND, X-axis signal, Y-axis signal, and button signal.
Joystick Features:
- Dual-Axis Control – Reads left/right and forward/backward movement for smooth directional input.
- Built-In Push Button – Pressing down on the joystick provides an additional momentary switch input.
- Analog Signal Output – X and Y axis signals can be read by analog input pins on the TechBox Nano Board or other Arduino-compatible boards.
- Header-Based Connection – 5-pin male header makes it easy to connect using standard female jumper wires.
- Great for Interactive Projects – Ideal for RC controls, games, menu selection, cursor movement, and student-designed input systems.
- PCB-Mounted Design – Compact board layout keeps the joystick stable and easy to mount inside project builds.

What Educators are Saying
Real feedback from educators using TechBox.
"My students had such a great time with their Tech Boxes. Many, were so excited to accomplish the task that they were ready to take them home to continue the lesson.
You know what else was cool? All the kids who were running around after the lesson with Tech Boxes in their arms bragging to other students and fielding questions about them - they were so excited and proud!"
"TechBox offered the hands-on interactive & educational component to Centre College's high school STEM camp that we needed! The Laser Stem Matrix introduced the students to wiring bread boards and programming, and it sparked the interest of some potential engineers in the group! With a range of exposure to technology and electronics, TechBox was able to meet the needs of everyone - from the beginner to the experienced. The instructions were easy to follow and offered educational lessons throughout for those who had less experience."
