How Does Magnetic Switch Technology Work?


  • Question: What technology does the V75 keyboard use to detect key presses?

    The V75 keyboards use Hall Effect magnetic switch technology.

    Each key contains:

    • a magnet
    • a Hall sensor

    When the key is pressed, the magnet moves closer to the sensor, changing the magnetic field. Once the signal passes a defined threshold, the keypress is registered.

    Because this system has no physical electrical contact, it allows:

    • extremely fast response times
    • adjustable actuation distance
    • reduced wear on components
