I got a couple of corded PS2 GyroMice

These were made by GyroPoint about 10 years back ('95?)

I can't even find a pic on Google now!

Notice I've attached a PS2->USB converter on the back

I just cut it out of an off-the-shelf one


I've chopped the board down to size too (which was a bitch - I chopped an important wire and it took 12 hours to figure out)

So all you need is the chip pinout:

On the top row (counting from the left)

  • Pin 1: +
  • Pin 4: Data
  • Pin 8 Clk

Remember [Specification]! {+, -, clk, data}

On the bottom row (counting from the left)

  • Pins 2, 3 need to be tied. One is connected to the + rail, the other is the 'Gyro Is Active?' input, and has to be set high. Forgot which
  • Pins 4,5,6 are M,L,R buttons & need to be pulled to ground. erm ive forgotten to pull M low but whatever, works ok
  • Last pin is - rail
