Intellivision 1 controller to USB circuit

Product Description:
This circuit makes it possible to convert an original Intellivision 1 controller for use with a computer equiped with an USB port.

Features:

• All 16 directions (+ Idle position) of the disc are functional
• All "Telephone" style buttons are usable
• All 4 side buttons are usable (Top left and Top right are equivalents though)
• No custom drivers required. Device is standard USB Hid (Human Input Device)

Note that the rotating disc and the 12 'telephone' buttons cannot be used at the same time. This is a limitation of the controller, not the adapter.
