What is a TMR Stick?

New ultra-drift-resistant thumbsticks use contactless TMR (Tunnel Magneto-Resistance) sensors, which provide faster, more stable inputs than traditional Hall-effect sensors for smoother, virtually lag-free operation.

Why TMR is Better?

What is tunnel magnetoresistance?

The TMR stick is a next-generation stick that uses the latest magnetic sensor technology. Like conventional Hall effect sticks, it uses a non-contact sensor, so it is characterized by its wear-free and high durability. However, the TMR stick not only achieves this, but also achieves even higher accuracy and response speed.

Features of TMR Stick

✅ Accurate input without delay

By placing a dedicated sensor between the north and south poles of the magnetic pivot, it provides a more stable, linear input that is less prone to drift than traditional Hall effect sticks, allowing for precise operation over long periods of time.

✅ Less susceptible to electromagnetic noise

It suppresses the effects of electromagnetic noise and prevents stick shake and malfunction. The technology, which has already been proven in third-party products, is also used in the genuine controller, providing a more precise and intuitive next-generation operation experience.

✅Perfect control in FPS games

The placement of the sensor and magnet has been optimized to improve response in the 0-20% input range (the area where subtle movements are required in FPS games). It responds faster than the hall effect method, providing a crisper feel to the controls.

The TMR stick has already received rave reviews in tests by third-party manufacturers, and we are confident that by incorporating this technology into our original controllers, we can provide a next-generation stick experience that is perfect for players who want more precise, responsive control.

FAQ

What controllers can the TMR stick be installed on?

MERKA.G has a stick for Dualsense/Dualshock4. We cannot provide a controller for Dualshock4, but we will provide a magnetic stick aftermarket service.

Is it possible to customize the tension on a TMR stick?

The first batch will only be available in the 120gf version, but it will also be available for adjustments such as increasing or decreasing tension.

When will the TMR stick be available?

Before making an official announcement on social media, we will first inform you of the release date via email newsletter and official LINE, so please register. *We are aiming for a release around the end of February to early March.
