Introduces Two-Axis Magnetic Sensor Circuit
Designed For Compassing, Navigation Systems
and Attitude Reference |
| |
| MINNEAPOLIS,
Minnesota, May 10, 2002
- Honeywell [NYSE:HON] today announced a new
addition to its family of magnetic products.
The HMC6022 is a high-performance magnetoresistive
sensor with signal conditioning circuitry
to convert magnetic fields to 0-5 volts output
signal. Like the other products in the magnetics
family, the HMC6022 detects the presence and
magnitude of the earth's magnetic field. The
HMC6022 offers a high-sensitivity and high-reliability
solution for low-field magnetic sensing applications
thus providing improved accuracy to compasses
and navigation systems. |
| |
| Each
of the magnetoresistive sensors is integrated
with signal conditioning circuitry resulting
in a two-axis magnetometer to convert magnetic
fields to 0-5 volts output. This sensor assembly
offers both a high-performance and low-cost
solution for low field magnetic sensing situations. |
| |
| Product
features include small size and low power
capability designed into a 20-pin SOIC package.
The HMC6022 is based on Honeywell's magnetoresistive
technology. The solid state technology and
small size reduce circuit board assembly costs
and improve the product's ruggedness and reliability. |
| |
| Honeywell's
complete family of magnetic sensor-based products
offer high sensitivity for accurate compassing,
remote vehicle detection monitoring, virtual
reality, position sensing, security systems
and medical instrumentation. For more information
regarding our HMC6022 two-axis magnetic sensor
circuit or other Honeywell magnetic sensor
products, visit Honeywell's web site at www.magneticsensors.com.
From this Internet location, visitors can
immediately download product specifications,
data sheets, tutorials and application notes
for details about magnetic sensor technology,
components and system level solutions. To
