“In this Instructable, I’ll describe the process I used to create a breakout board for my broken PS4 controllers. When I took mine apart, I discovered that most of the buttons connect via a membrane keypad, and a custom PCB would be required in order to make the necessary matching contacts.
Supplies
- PS4 controller with a bad brain and/or battery
- Small screwdriver
- Solderless breadboard
- Header pins and/or prototyping wires
- 2x tiny tactile switches
- 1x small tactile switch
- 2x joysticks”
