Your PS4 controller is yellow because it's charging. The yellow light indicates that it's in rest mode and the battery is getting some juice!
Yellow light while playing? Probably a game-specific feature. Yellow while charging? It's just topping off the battery.
Some games use the yellow light to signify in-game events, so your controller might be reacting to something happening in the game!
