Description:
Level up your PS4 controller with Favor Union's next-gen hall effect analog stick modules—designed for precision, built to last. Say goodbye to stick drift and hello to smooth, responsive gameplay.
Compatible with Sony PS4 controllers, all variants of Sony PS4 official controller can be fitted with these modules.
Favor Union have a long history of providing the highest quality components for controllers, and have been a supplier of Sony for PlayStation first party controllers along side the likes of Alps.
If you are suffering from drift or random joystick inputs then look no further than our hall sense replacements to keep you in the game and out of the repair workshop.
To install these yourself you will need to be reasonably comfortable with both desoldering and soldering of electronic parts, difficulty level medium, clean and high quality soldering is needed in order for your controller to work properly once installed.
Compatible with Sony PS4 controllers, please note that opening the controller voids any warranty you may have with the manufacturer and installation of replacement parts is done at your own risk.
Includes one pair of hall sense joysticks, it is recommended to replace both the left and right at the same time, there is no left of right module so each replacment will fit either the left or right side control.
Calibration using an online software tool may be needed once the modules are installed.
Why use Hall effect over traditional analog sticks?
Traditional analog sticks use physical contacts inside the potentiometers, a conductive material and acts as a resistor to read a electrical value that identifies the joystick position. This material wears down over time a bit like breaks in your car, so depending on hours of use or play style the carbon breaks down and the joysticks start to read differently, creating what is known as drift.
The pots on the hall sense joysticks utilise magnets which pass over a small IC detecting changes in the joystick's position relative to a magnetic field. As you move the joystick, the sensors detect movement with high sensitiviy to convert them into electrical signals. These signals are then transmitted to your controller just like traditional analogs, translating your movements into in-game actions.
This process happens in real-time, providing accurate and precise control over your gaming experience. By utilizing magnetic sensor technology, Hall Sense joysticks offer consistent and reliable performance thanks to their contact-free mechanism. This ensures that your gaming inputs are always captured with precision, without the risk of drift or inaccuracies over time.
The hall sense sticks can be calibrated using a software tool at any time to, allowing you to see how the joysticks are functioning, set the dead center and adjust the range settings.
Technical information: This analog joystick button control is compatible with original Sony PS4 controllers and needs to be soldered onto the controllers mainboard.
There is no left or right module, you can use any module to replace a left or right, you can keep spares and change the left or right multiple times, it is recommended you install these as a pair but if you ever need to change one out you can change one at a time as needed.
The analog modules can be calibrated using an online tool for the center position and range of movement.
Requires technical installation, the parts must be soldered, you will need to also be able to desolder the mold modules.
Please note this will void any manufacturer warranty, opening your device could result in damage if done incorrectly, this is a DIY replacement part which is fitted at your own risk, please consult an expert if you are unsure.
A Philips screwdriver tool required to install this part (not included)
Calibrating the replacement joystick after installation:You may need to recalibrate the controller joysticks after installing the new modules, this can be done using the tool on the website: https://dualshock-tools.github.io/
