XY joystick module

Analog joystick. Analog means that the resistance changes with the change in the deflection of the X or Y axis. How to use this module?

You supply ground and power. The PCB describes power as 5V, but it will work with basically any power supply, the output voltage will change from 0V to the supply voltage. So if you want to connect to a microcontroller whose analog input (measuring voltage) can work with a maximum voltage of 3.3V - use a 3.3V power supply. If it works in the range of up to 5V - use 5V.

After connecting the power supply, a voltage equal to half the supply voltage will appear on the two outputs (VRx and VRy). This voltage will change with the deflection of the stick, reaching 0V or the supply voltage in extreme deflections.

Pressing the lever shorts the button. In a free state, the button is pulled up to Vcc. After pressing, it is shorted to ground.
