Description
The Seeedstudio Grove 3-Axis Digital Compass is a Grove compatible module that uses I?C based Honeywell HMC5883L digital compass. This ASIC is equipped with high resolution HMC118X magneto-resistive sensors and a 12-bit ADC. It provides compass heading accuracy up to 1* to 2*. Signal conditioning like amplification, automatic degaussing strap drivers and offset cancellation are inbuilt. This grove module also includes a MIC5205-3.3 for power supply requirement. Hence user can connect any 3.3V to 6V DC power supply.
Features of the Seeedstudio Grove 3-Axis Digital Compass include:
- Grove compatible interface
- 3-Axis Magneto-resistive type sensors
- I?C serial interface
- 2.0cm x 2.0cm Grove module
- 1* to 2* Degree heading accuracy
- Up to 116 Hz Maximum output rate
- Built-In self test
