BL series
Miniature paddle joystick controllers
Overview
The BL is designed to be powered by a regulated 5V± 0.5V power supply. The outputs are raometric, making a stable, noise
free, power supply essenal. The power supply to the joysck should be carefully regulated to be within tolerance. Should
the power supply change outside of the specified tolerances, permanent damage may occur.
The BL Series incorporates internal magnec screening to minimize the effect of external magnec fields. Mounng
or operang the Paddle close to strong magnec fields is not recommended. System designers should follow best pracce
when incorporang the BH/BL Series Paddle into their products. Care should be taken to decouple the power supply properly
and to employ adequate EMC shielding.
When mounng the Paddle, care should be taken to site it in a posion that does not make vulnerable to damage when
in use. If the Paddle is intended for use in a handheld enclosure then care must be taken to protect the Paddle from
damage caused by dropping. For long term reliability, basic precauons should be implemented, such as mounng it at the
lightest end of the enclosure or by protecng it with a guard. The body of the Paddle, on the underside of the panel, must
not be subject to water spray, excessive humidity or dust.
