Did you get it working? #1

Hey :wave:

I'm considering building something like this. Did you get it to work? I'm thinking about using lekker switches with the same hall effect sensor you listed, any idea if that would work well?

Just thought I'd drop a line to see if you have any experience to share :)

o/ I've made some PCBs for it, but none seem to work, the voltages for each key just don't seem to work correctly, I've tried with lekker switches and with normal magnets to see if it was just the lekkers acting funny. I honestly have no idea why that happens, and i've talked with some people, and no idea either. Maybe with a redesign or something, but i've lost a bit of interest, mainly since i've put some of my own money on it for something that just doesn't seem to work. Might be bad documentation on the hall effect sensors, or the pi pico I used just trolling

I can also say that the 3d designs fit the pcb completely fine, so no work is needed on those

Thanks for reply! I just ordered a few sensors and lekker switches to see if I can get any usable signal from them. I'll let you know if I get anything working

I've looked at the pcb again, and I think i've seen why it was giving issues https://github.com/roxandtol/roxpad/commit/8534acdbeacef410c501729ffebace5882d33bec . long story short, analog pings were connecting to digital gnd, and that fucked up. Prob won't test this soon, but i'll let you know if it fixed it

Thanks for letting me know, keep me posted! Meanwhile I created a PCB with a similar design which I'm testing right now: https://github.com/pinpox/tm-gamepad/
