Paddle Picture

Am I the only one who noticed that the picture of the Atari "paddle" is actually the Atari driving wheel?

Twaddle Article

Twaddle article, oriented towards those Tater-Tots who merely play games.

These circuits were early versions of Consumer oriented ADCs. What were the Voltage Ranges, the Resolutions, the Timings, and any Hysteresis, either Inherent or Intentional, on those early Analog Paddle Game Controllers? At some point, I might have been Bold, and detailed just what happens on pins 17 and 18 of the 6561 VIC Chip, and just when. FYI, just how useful did NASA find all this? Very. Unfortunately, that would all be Original Research, really Original Research, so... No.
