This document introduces HMC1055 3-Axis Compass Sensor Set products features and characteristics, including 2-axis magnetoresistive sensor, 1-axis magnetoresistive sensor and 2-axis MEMSIC MXS3334UL accelerometer, which can be used to create self-balancing compass designs.
The Honeywell HMC1055 is a 3-axis compass sensor set designed to facilitate tilt-compensated electronic compass development. It integrates three specific sensor packages into a single kit: the HMC1052 two-axis magnetoresistive sensor, the HMC1051Z one-axis magnetoresistive sensor, and the Memsic MXS3334UL two-axis accelerometer.
| Supply Range | 2.7 to 5.5 volt |
|---|---|
| Operating Temperature Range | -40 to +125 °C |
| Accelerometer Sensitivity (Typ) | 20.00 %Duty Cycle/g |
| Accelerometer Noise Density rms | 0.4 mg/sqrt-Hz |
The kit includes the HMC1051Z one-axis sensor, the HMC1052 two-axis sensor, and a Memsic MXS3334UL accelerometer.
It allows the electronic compass to be oriented arbitrarily and perform tilt-compensated heading measurements regardless of level.
