Talk:DualShock 4
Eleccelerator
Hi, this is Frank, Eleccelerator is my website. I noticed the little message you've sent me (please use email next time, I don't check my own wiki edits, but I can't find your email either lol so I'm a hypocrite right now). Feel free to copy whatever information you want, I want the information to be public. Including a link to my website would be nice though.

- I’ve been decoding the USB reports independently and appear to have got further along, when I’m happy that most of the packet is described, I’ll integrate my findings, still a few nibbles unaccounted for though… https://gist.github.com/johndrinkwater/7708901 -- Johndrinkwater (talk) 05:22, 3 December 2013 (EST)
Review:
It feels really good to hold.
Hardware
Teardown photo album: http://imgur.com/a/ytRW5
The USB port and LED are on one separate board, connected using a flat flexible cable, this cable is connected to a vertical FFC connector that does not have a locking mechanism.
The touchpad sensor is also detachable, connected using a flat flexible cable, this cable is connected to the main PCB using a connector that has a flip-up locking mechanism.
The speaker is not removable and it connects to the main PCB using some raised contacts.
The battery is 3.65V 1000mAH Li-ion.
Main microcontroller is a Spansion MB9BF002, a ARM Cortex M3 core, BGA package. The reset and SWD signals might be exposed to test points, I am not sure.
The Bluetooth module shows "8LA18366" and "GS-WCM-01" (or maybe it's "GS-WCN-01") and "VR2.0". There is also a QR code that I can't decipher yet. There are a lot of test points near it.
There's a chip marked with "BD9200" (in QFN 32 pin footprint) that might be a PMIC because it has some thick traces around it, plus a big inductor. One of the pins near it read 6V, might be for the motor.
There's a shiny small square chip left of the left analog stick, it is marked with "7710" "325A1", I have no idea what this is, but there's some differential signals coming out of it, it might be USB, the activity stops when I disconnect the USB cable. I think this is connected to the USB port. I suspect this is a OTG chip.
There's a rectangular (maybe LGA) chip on the bottom side on the left, marked with "134" "A1322" "333", possibly a sensor. It's got some sort of latch signal around it, or maybe it's a weird clock. It's slow and doesn't seem like a bus. Or it could be a shift register and it's reading blank because I'm not pressing buttons.
There's a QFN 32 pin chip marked with "WM18016" (the M could be a N, the 6 could be a G) "36A0LM6" dead center on the bottom side of the PCB. It has a sine wave logo on it (possibly Wolfson Microelectronics). It is near the audio stuff but it is also near where all the buttons connect. There are 5 test points near it. It appears to be communicating with SPI with constant activity. There's also two resistors that look like I2C pull-up resistors, and there appears to be constant I2C traffic.
Some buttons are active low, some are active high (maybe only the thumbstick push buttons). The sheet of flexible circuit for the buttons are active low.
I'll keep adding to this section
Flexible Film Pin Mapping
The buttons are all on a single sheet of flexible film. The contacts for the flexible film are numbered from 1 to 18, and the numbers are written on the PCB.
The triggers have a resistor printed directly on the film, this appears to form a voltage divider, so that the trigger can have an analog value. The ground side of the voltage divider appears to be oscillating, the frequency and duty cycle are not fixed or predictable.
| Pin # | Purpose | Notes |
| 1 | L2 Common | oscillating between 0 and 3.3V |
| 2 | L1 Sig | active High |
| 3 | L1 Common | fixed at 3.3V |
| 4 | L2 Sig | voltage divider output, active low |
| 5 | DPAD Right | active low |
| 6 | DPAD Up | active low |
| 7 | DPAD Left | active low |
| 8 | DPAD Down | active low |
| 9 | Common | ground |
| 18 | PS Button | active low |
| 11 | X | active low |
| 12 | Circle | active low |
| 13 | Triangle | active low |
| 14 | Square | active low |
| 15 | R2 Common | oscillating between 0 and 3.3V |
| 16 | R1 Sig | active high |
| 17 | R1 Common | fixed at 3.3V |
| 18 | R2 Sig | voltage divider output, active low |
USB
Audio definitely does not carry through USB.
The reports arrive once every 4ms.

The same controller is then disconnected, and this is what happened when it reconnected

report ID 0xA3 seems to be some sort of time-of-manufacture identifier, it contains a date and time as a string in the beginning, ".Aug 3 2013.....07:01:12...........1....I....."
AC 9E 17 94 05 B0 is PS4 (Host) Bluetooth MAC Address (in proper MAC format, it is B0:05:94:17:9E:AC), AC 9E 17 is the LAP and 0x94 is the UAP, 05 B0 is the NAP, this was verified using a Bluetooth sniffer.
I am guessing that 8B 09 07 6D 66 1C (in proper MAC format, 1C:66:6D:07:09:8B) is controller's MAC address, it's different on a different controller
