PAW3401
12 PIN PS/2 Optical Mouse Sensor
5. Data Format
The PAW3401 supports three different PS/2-compatible packet formats, depending upon the following
operational modes:
•
•
Standard 2D mode (2D3B)
Standard 3D mode (3D3B)
5.1 Standard 2D Mode Format
A standard 2D PS/2-compatible mouse motion report consists of a 3-byte packet defined as below.

X0 ~ X7 X data (D0 - D7). A positive value indicates motion to the right; a
negative value indicates motion to the left. Bit 0=LSB.
Y0 ~ Y7 Y data (D0 - D7), A positive value indicates device motion upward; a
negative value indicates motion downward. Bit 0=LSB.
