Resistor question. I think...
Moderator:Moderators
Is there any circuitry I can use that will just cut out current when a pot reaches a certain resistance level?
In case your wondering, I'm talking in reference to making a NOAC take a modded gamecube analog stick as its D-Pad. As far as I can tell, when I hook up the stick to the NES's Controller Chip, it registers even major resistance from the pot as a button push.
Anyone have any ideas?

nope... can't think of anything I could possibly want to put in my Signature Block...

schmellyfart seems to have a good answer but if it is all the same, I would rather not take apart the whole analog stick.
@ gannon and jeroen, I'm not very electrically inclined and am not sure of the electrical components you were talking about but it seems like you know what you are talking about. Is there anyway you can dumb it down for me a bit?
Edit: I looked up the parts you mentioned and am still clueless to their usage
Edit2: schellyfart, I just relized that your idea would not work for my situation. My portable plays NES and N64 games and I would like the GC analog stick for the N64 to be able to run the NES D-Pad as well.

Well *sigh*, I'm not sure I even have enough room for ONE analog stick, let alone two. The whole point was to have the N64 and NES run off off of one stick, but if I alter the resistance of the pots, the N64 will be all screwy.

I had an idea yesterday while sitting at the orthodontist. You could put tacts under the rim thing of the GC analog.
Put the tacts where the t's are, and turn it 90 degrees and do the same. Then it'll hit the tact when you push all the way in a direction.
