It outputs 3 signals on the 3 white wires "hand made" soldered to the TOSHIBA controller to retrieve the axis data. The other "hand made" soldered component uses 3 wires (black = ground, red = volts, and yellow soldered to TP26) seems to be a '''Murata ENC-03R''' Gyroscope Sensor [http://www.alldatasheet.es/datasheet-pdf/pdf/191258/MURATA/ENC-03R.html]. It seems both components was integrated later in the circuit board of the controllers labeled "sixaxis" | ||
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. | 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.

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 | 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).

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 | ||
