Cytron PS2 Shield for Arduino The Cytron PS2 Shield is a compact and reliable PS2 controller interface designed for Arduino boards, making remote control projects smoother and far more intuitive. Whether you're working with an Arduino Uno, Mega, Leonardo, or other compatible boards, this shield lets you easily integrate a wired or wireless PS2 controller into your robotics, DIY RC projects, or gaming-inspired builds. With simple UART communication and a plug-and-play connector, reading joystick inputs and button states becomes effortless, even for beginners. Built with developers and hobbyists in mind, the Cytron PS2 Shield provides flexible UART selection options, stackable headers for adding more shields, and support for vibration motors on PS2 controllers. Because it draws power directly from the Arduino board, setup stays clutter-free. This PS2 Shield is perfect for anyone looking to add remote control, robotics maneuvering, or wireless navigation to their Arduino-based projects using a familiar PS2 controller format. Features: Provides an easy and reliable interface for connecting wired or wireless PS2 controllers to Arduino boards. Supports multiple Arduino models including UNO, Mega, Leonardo, and other pin-compatible variants. Simple UART-based communication allows effortless reading of joystick and button states. Integrated support for controlling the PS2 controller’s vibration motor for enhanced feedback. Stackable headers enable additional shields to be mounted above the PS2 Shield without conflict. Jumper-based selection for baud rates (9600, 57600, 115200) and configurable UART TX/RX pins. Fully powered from the Arduino main board with low current consumption. Includes status LED and reset control via Arduino A1 pin for convenient operation.
