# DaemonBite Sega Controller To USB Adapter
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
This is a simple to build adapter for connecting Mega Drive (Genesis), Master System (+ Atari and C= controllers) to USB. It supports 3 and 6-button Mega Drive controllers and 1 and 2-button SMS/Atari/C= controllers.
|
|
|
|
The input lag for this adapter is minimal. Here is the result from a test with a 1ms polling rate on a MiSTer:
|
|
|

The Mega Drive gamepad interface is based on this repository : https://github.com/jonthysell/SegaController but almost entirely rewritten and a lot of optimisations have been made.
