Internally the Gyroscopic sensor for Sixaxis controllers is wired onto the board - presumably as a test for a sensor revision on a spare sample board. The sensor itself appears to be far from complete and very early.

The VX8 is official, the board traces, testpoint locations, and the sensor chips has a lot of coincidences with VX7... the weird thing that is shocking is the toshiba chip and the alps bluetooth module has been replaced. The PCB has more than 2 layers (previous versions up to VX6 had only 2 layers)

In [http://www.alps.com/products/e/category_multi.html ALPS] webpage are only available sticks with 3 pins pots, there are two posible explains for this, maybe ALPS manufactured the sticks without pots and sony ordered this special version of the pots to other company then sony asembled the pots and sticks together.... or... ALPS made an special production of sticks with 4 pins pots. anyway, this pots with 4 pins are a bit special

In the boards where this component is present (or his replacement upgraded versions) every stick has two pots (to meassure rotations of X and Y axis of that stick), and every pot has 2 pins that are carrying the signals related with the rotation of the axis (pin 1 and 2 of the pot). This signals are voltages, but there is also another pin of the pot that has an additional voltage (pin 3). Inside the pot there are two separated voltages, this seems to create a magnetic field with a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetoresistance magnetoresistive effect]. Also this allowed them (in further versions of the pots) to separate the mobile parts inside the pot by an intermediary "seal" that prevents dust and degradation of the parts

**If you have consistent trouble wirelessly syncing your controller to your PS3, the device may be counterfeit.
* No pressure-sensitive buttons, some games might not even go past the title screen. An example is Metal Gear 2/3 from the Metal Gear Solid HD collection, selecting any of those games will either get you stuck in the title screen (MGS2) or will not function properly (MGS3).
