HMR 3400 provides low-power tilt measurement
Inertial Aerosystems
Digital compass module
Inertial Aerosystems announce the availability of a new low-cost digital compass module manufactured by US-based Honeywell.
Designated the HMR 3400, this innovative device is a three-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass with low power consumption.
Incorporating Honeywell's established magnetorestive sensor technology coupled with a MEMS accelerometer to give a compact reliable tilt-compensated compass, which provides compass headings as well as pitch and roll angles.
Included are provisions for hard and soft iron correction algorithms to handle magnetic distortion effects.
The HMR 3400 has less than 1deg nominal heading accuracy with 0.1deg resolution with an update rate of up to 8Hz, with +/-60 degree pitch and roll.
The operating temperature is -40-85C and requires only 5VDC.
The compass comes with a UART serial data interface and the industry standard Honeywell compass instruction set.
Ideal for use where space and weight are at a premium it measures 15.24 x 25.43mm and weighs 3.75g.
Designed for high-volume OEM applications, the HMR3400 is available in Tape and Reel.
This product can be used for measuring tilt/movement of machinery, robotics, unmanned vehicles, vessels and buildings as well as for applications in navigation, dead reckoning, personal and onboard navigation.
