ICSH044A ICSTATION Blackberry Trackball Breakout Board 360 Degree Trajectory Ball Module

ICSH044A ICSTATION Blackberry Trackball Breakout Board 360 Degree Trajectory Ball Module

The ICSH044A ICSTATION Blackberry Trackball Breakout Board 360 Degree Trajectory Ball Module Hall Effect Sensor has four spindles, each with a tiny circular magnet at the end. These magnets are paired with SMD hall effect sensors, which measure the trackball’s movements in four directions: up, down, left and right.

Under the trackball, there is an SMD momentary switch that acts as a select button. When the switch is pressed, the BTN line goes low. The Trackballer also has four LEDs: red, blue, green and white. These can be powered to light up the clear trackball in any color.

All features are connected to a 0.1″ pitch header. The Hall sensors need regulated power between 2.5 and 5.25VDC. The trackball is attached with strong CA glue. The board comes as shown, with all components assembled.

The hall-effect sensors and trackball combo are very sensitive. A small roll of the trackball produces multiple high/low transitions on the four axis pins, which can be easily detected by any microcontroller. This gives you the option of adding a mouse to your project. A full rotation of the trackball along a single axis result in about 9 high/low transitions.

Note: This Product is available in two different variants (ICSH044A and HW-204) with the same working.
