{"title":"Mini Analog Thumbstick - Similar to Joycon Style","handle":"mini-analog-thumbstick-similar-to-joycon-style","url":"/products/mini-analog-thumbstick-similar-to-joycon-style","description":"A compact, self-centering analogue thumbstick with a feel and size similar to Nintendo Joy-Con joysticks. It uses two 10kΩ potentiometers (one for each axis) to provide proportional X/Y analogue output, plus a centre-press tactile button for selection — ideal for directional control in robotics, custom controllers, and interactive projects.\n\nThe voltage output follows the thumbstick's position and returns to centre when released. Solder the 2mm pitch pins onto a custom breakout board for integration into your design.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nSelf-Centering – Springs back to centre position when released\n\nTwo-Axis Analogue – 10kΩ potentiometer per axis for smooth proportional control\n\nCentre Press Button – Built-in tactile button for selection/click\n\nCompact Joycon-Style Form Factor – Small enough for handheld builds\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nType – Self-centering analogue thumbstick\n\nPotentiometers – 2× 10kΩ (X and Y axes)\n\nButton – Centre-press tactile switch\n\nPin Pitch – 2mm (not breadboard-compatible)\n\n\n\nNote: This is NOT a replacement for Nintendo Switch Joy-Con joysticks — it simply has a similar feel and size. The 2mm pin pitch requires a custom breakout board (not breadboard-friendly).\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nCustom game controllers and handhelds\nRobotics and RC control interfaces\nMenu navigation and UI input\nInteractive art and maker projects\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Mini Analog Thumbstick (with rocker cap)\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":1807,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-5628","price":8.77,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":1,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
