Compass Module

Description

Compass Module The compass module is a joint project between Liquidware and Modern Device and is available here as an assembled unit. This is a fully integrated compass module that combines the Honeywell HMC6352 2-axis magneto-resistive sensors with the required analog and digital support circuits, microprocessor and algorithms for heading computation. It comes assembled with a 4-pin male header soldered on. The Compass Sensor is fully integrated with the Antipasto Arduino IDE and can provide compass headings in degrees over Arduino serial. Applications Homebrew virtual reality & gaming systems Robotics and dead reckoning navigation systems Compassing & outdoor sports GPS confirmation Antenna positioning Specifications HMC6352 chip 4-pin male header included 4-pin stack through header included Heading output (0-360 degrees) I2C 2-Wire Serial Interface 3 output modes: Standby, Query, and Continuous Heading accuracy: 2.5 degrees Heading resolution: 0.5 degrees Arduino pin compatible +5V Tolerant I/O Arduino Pin MappingAnalog 2 = Ground Analog 3 = Vin Analog 4 = Data Analog 5 = Clock Resources LibCompass Arduino Library (also included in the Antipasto Arduino IDE) Honeywell HMC6352 Chip Datasheet Compass Module D2127718,
