Introduces Ultra Small Two-Axis Magnetic Sensor
for Compassing and Position Sensing |
| |
| MINNEAPOLIS,
JANUARY 16, 2001-Honeywell
Solid State Electronics Center has developed
another breakthrough in Magnetoresistive Sensor
products. The HMC1052 is a two-axis sensor
on one chip for compassing and position sensing
applications requiring ultra small size, low
power and high performance. These include
handheld wireless appliance applications such
as mobile phones, personal digital assistants,
walkie talkies, watches and GPS receivers.
Advantages of this new patented design include
nearly perfect orthogonal two-axis sensing
in a 3mm x 3mm x 1mm 10-pin miniature surface
mount package (MSOP). |
| |
| The
HMC1052 has a sensitivity of 1mV/V/Gauss,
a wide field range up to ± 6 gauss
and can operate on a supply voltage as low
as 1.8V. Nearly perfect orthogonal two-axis
sensing and matched sensitivity on both axes
improves performance and accuracy of this
sensor. Patented on-chip set/reset straps
eliminate the effects of temperature drift
and stray magnetic fields. |
