Project 3 (Novice): LED Circle with Joystick

Another simple project, designed to help me get familiar with the use of joysticks.

features
-The corresponding LED will light up in the same direction as the joystick
- when the button is pressed (joystick comes with a pushbutton), turn all LED's on














Parts Used:
- 8x red LED's
- 8x 330 ohm resistor
-  1x 10k ohm resistor
- 1x joystick (salvaged from a PlayStation controller)







The only difficult thing in this project was to unsolder the joystick from my playstation controller. This is very difficult, since there are 14 pins and I had to use a gigantic soldering iron.
