The name is BU0836, look here:

http://www.simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1738041&page=0&fpart=1

Is possible built your own, like this: http://www.mindaugas.com

I build two these , for about U$15 each - the IC cost me U$ 6 (In Brazil).



But BU0836 is more advanced (USB 2.0), tested and approved for the SIM community.

You may be talking about the BU0836 from Leo Bodnar. Check out his card at: http://www.aqza37.dsl.pipex.com/joystick/

Hope this helps...

Edit: Your faster than me Sokol1!

I wanted to follow up in this other thread too (you have two it gets confusing). They have more options and probably cost more but choices are good to have!

Oh and I believe you have to get a master module first then get the input board. I liked this one becuase you could get one with up to 128 inputs plus the pots and rotary encoders.

Here's my MJoy16.



The PCB was designed by a member of a local flightsim forum, includes both the main board and the key matrix.
