3-Axis Magnetic Sensor Hybrid
HMC2003
The Honeywell HMC2003 is a high sensitivity, three-axis magnetic sensor hybrid
assembly used to measure low magnetic field strengths. Honeywell’s most
sensitive magneto-resistive sensors (HMC1001 and HMC1002) are utilized to
provide the reliability and precision of this magnetometer design.
The HMC2003 interface is all analog with critical nodes brought out to the pin
interfaces for maximum user flexibility. The internal excitation current source and
selected gain and offset resistors, reduces temperature errors plus gain and
offset drift. Three precision low-noise instrumentation amplifiers with 1kHz low
pass filters provide accurate measurements while rejecting unwanted noise. A
RS-232 development kit version is available that includes a windows compatible
demo program, interface cable, AC adapter, and carrying case.
Applications include: Precision Compassing, Navigation Systems, Attitude Reference, Traffic Detection, Proximity
Detection and Medical Devices
Honeywell continues to maintain product excellence and performance by introducing innovative solid-state magnetic
sensor solutions. These are highly reliable, top performance products that are delivered when promised. Honeywell’s
magnetic sensor solutions provide real solutions you can count on.
