• Jack lo svelto: Hi guys, I need your help. My JDM 055 has extreme right drift. That is, it remains fixed to the right without trembling, motionless. under the microscope I noticed the lack of capacitors c23 and c24. They may be the cause. I saw that they are connected to the headphone jack input. Can you tell me their value? Thank you.

The 1914 schematics are here - https://acidmods.com/forum/index.php/topic,44711.0.html

U8 makes the 1.8v for the sticks, though I doubt it's bad, hence removing the Hall sensors and retesting to see if the 1.8v comes back first. You either have a bad Hall stick, the things aren't for the XB1 board or something was stuffed up while doing the swap.

could you write it out for me which pins and tp i should measure? Just to be sure because the pads did suffer a bit from my desoldering.
it seems the 1.8v rail does not deliver its voltage. Where is the 1.8v generated?

That AN+ (TP103) voltage for the sticks should be 1.8v, so something is wrong there if you're getting 1.2v. Pull all of those things off the board and retest that voltage, then install one sensor at a time and make sure it stays 1.8v. The voltage on the center pin should be around half of that 1.8v with the stick resting at center.

I have meassured 1.2V for both sticks and their two hall effect modules.
I used pin tp103 to measure the voltage against the port next to the 3.5mm headset connector.
I powered the controller over a usb cable with a usb power supply without the battery inserted

No idea on the specifics of those sticks, as I've never messed with them, but were the ones you bought for the XB1 controller? The DS5 and XB1 have a different stick orientation, and the Y-axis sensor is on the opposite side, so that could mess things up. Measuring the resistance on them being hall sensors isn't going to really tell you much, unless something is shorted to something it's not supposed to be, check the voltage on the pins of them with respect to ground.

Same chip, just different manufactures, and even then I'd be surprised if the things didn't come from the same place.

Now the PCAL6416A is a little different animal, though it still has the same pinout and core register commands as the others. That PCAL one I wouldn't swear would work 100%, but the TCA and PCA versions are pretty much identical.

Xbox One / 1914 Hall Effect sticks not working

« Last post by Ruboka on June 22, 2025, 08:15:08 AM »

Hey,

i have a xbox series s controller and replaced the analog sticks with ginfull hall effect ones from Aliexpress.
The problem is that the sticks won't read my input or to be more precise they move only in the tiniest amount . Also the movement of one sticks seems to influence the other one.
I know my pads are broken/missing but as far I could tell the the pins are not shorted?
between the 1.8v tp 108 and the ground pads of the hall effect  legs is 1.8(+-0.2) Ohm (measured on my multimeter on the 200 Ohm setting).
The resistance between the center and 1.8v i guess /measured is 7.48 Ohm (on 20k Ohm setting) and the same resistance between the center and ground.

• - make this 78.9 +-1 Ohm measured on 200k Ohm setting. Don't know how I measured the first value? seems to high now?

All 1.8v pads are connected with 0.2 Ohm(200 Ohm setting) to the 1.8v line as it it the same with the ground pins to ground.
 The center pins have all their connection the the tp points  working (about 0.7 Ohm on 200 ohm setting)

I cant attach images ? I have a reddit post with images . Reddit Thread

Could someone help me out?
Also if my description is not enough please tell me what to meassure and I will update it.

OK, this time I soldered back the original tca6416rtwr from a donor board, and now it's fully working. Are you 100% sure that the PCA6416AHF,128 is the correct equivalent?

Nope, it's just an I2C expander.
