The company that makes this trackpad (Synaptic) actually use the same pinout. The one in the video may work, but the most common pinout is: T22 - VCC (+5v) [Red] T23 - GND (-5v) [Black] T10 - CLK (D+) [Green] T11 - DATA (D-) [White] In the video, it works out fine, but some of these pads don't always line up the same with every Synaptic track pads. So it's best to use the pinout I gave above. Also, PS2 and USB adaptors are l passive and just basically short certain wires. So you can actually wire this up directly to a USB and it should work.

I can confirm the above pinout works with the following Synaptics touchpad models: 920-001019-02 Rev A. 920-000241-01 Rev B. But it only works if it's connected to an active USB to P/S2 adapter. I also tried that pinout with an USB cable and Windows 7 could not recognize the "USB"device. When connected via P/S2 cable to the USB active adapter, the touchpad recognize: Single tap to select an icon on the desktop Double tap as double click. The vertical scroll also works great on any window.

I have touchpad ripped out of Lenovo Yoga 520. I see points marked as: TR, T2, T3, T4, T5, T21, T1, T8, T9, T24, T20, T23, T33 Are you able to tell how I should solder wires to it?

Is it possible with ds4 controller trackpad?

I'm a bit new to this but I must say, I'm flabbergasted at how simple the connection to the touchpad is!

this is awesome man 😋😁

I have all these old laptops and finding this is like awesome. Random fun stuff to do with computers. Heck yeah

Hey man, thanks for the vid! Question: must the adapter be that specific one? And why would you jump the ps/2 female plug by soldering directly onto the pcb, instead of keeping the/soldering a ps/2 male plug to the end of the cable?

Os adaptadores PS2 e USB são passivos e basicamente curvam certos fios. Então você pode conectar isso diretamente a um USB e ele deve funcionar. A empresa que fabrica esse trackpad (Synaptic) realmente usa a mesma pinagem. O do vídeo pode funcionar, mas a pinagem mais comum é: T22 - VCC (+ 5v) [vermelho] T23 - GND (-5v) [preto] T10 - CLK (D +) [Verde] T11 - DADOS (D-) [Branco]

Yep, since USB will always scans using system power, and ps2 is using system intterupts that only scans when you move your finger above it it's just better for power conservation

Content loudness is +6.1db... it should be set to -2db.. that way when you turn the volume down on devices it will mute the audio otherwise you have to click mute in order to make the audio stop and turning the volume down as far as it goes does not mute the sound, there will still be 6.1db coming through ....
