Hi everyone; I'm a mechatronic engineering student and I'm trying to produce digital compass with Phillips KMZ51-52 sensors. Digital compass will be assembled...
Hi Sinan: You might want to have a look at the Daventec CMPS03. It's a PIC based compass using a couple of single axis sensors, but no tilt compensation....
Hi Sinan, The following example might be suitable for your project. You can find the hardware and software related to your topic. In this ap note HMC1052 is...
Hello Gentleman, In reference to the HMC1052 there are two arrow that represent A and B sensor and are orthogonal to each other. If one places this IC on a ...
Hi all! ... Quite a while ago a member posted, that he used the KMZ sensors, but then switched to the HMC Honeywell sensors, because those have less noise and...
Hi everyone, I just thought I should introduce myself to the group and share a bit of background on what i'm doing before I get going here. My name is Rob and...

Hi Rob: You might try eBay for "Schonstedt" To learn why search my web page for the same word: http://www.prc68.com/I/FGPat.shtml Have Fun, Brooke Clarke ...
John, thanks for the response! In regards to your message, I suppose you are right that it is not "truly" necessary to have two sensors gradiometrically to get...
Hi Rob: It's very important that whatever you use to hold the two sensors keeps them perfectly aligned. For a gross example if you used a 10 foot length of 1"...
OK, the parts kit is here and my "Dead Micronta 4001 metal detector to dual FGM-3 gradiometer mag conversion" project is now officially underway... :) I have...
Rob, There is no "reset" function on the SCL-007. Pin 18 is labelled RESET because it is, in fact, reset by the input from the other FGM-3 sensor to obtain the...
Hi: I've received some sample ring cores that may make good fluxgate magnetometers. The metal has an OD of 1/2", ID of 3/8" and height of 0.111" The...
Hi all, Has anyone noticed a slow gradual long term drift of their magnetometer ? I've been monitoring this for Months & not found out what is causing this...
It may be moving slightly relative to the earth's field. Have you getting a lot of rain there? If it's buried, the ground is expanding slightly as it absorbs...
Hi Erich, No, my magnetometer is inside the house on a sturdy shelf, checked for signs of the bracket buckling & such but even that seems ok. Thanks for your...
In the past I've tried to obtain a couple of sample PNI magneto-inductive sensors (the unshielded leaded variety), but they were asking something like £20...
As I am one of the developers of the PNI technology I can tell you for certain that the sheld is an EMI shoeld to try and keep radiation from the coil to a...
Ah - so it's to prevent RFI emission ... Thanks a lot John - appreciated - that's the kind of explanation I was looking for. There was zero info in the data...
Rotational calibration is available in almost all compasses. It is a simple math routine. Even the fluxgates use it. I fyou want any of the math to make the...
Hi Mark, Magnitude or direction? Or is it not possible to distinguish? What component(s) are you measuring and with what kind of magnetometer? Also, can you...
Hi Doug, Not sure if it's direction or magnitude, I would probably think magnitude. I'm using a dual sensor kmz sensor from Philips (sorry I totally can't ...
Hi all, Just found this description:- Long Term Drift Long term drift is common with magnetometers. Once there has been more data gathered over longer periods...
... Hi John thanks very much for your kind offer - appreciated. I'm ok at the basic concepts (I hope!), but woefully lacking when it comes to the math...
Hi all, Just a thought, do any of you chaps know if the magnets in hi-fi speakers gradually lose there magnetic strength over time ? With my long-term magnetic...
I spent 25 years in pro audio. You don't need to worry about your permanent magnet speakers unless you beat them up physically. The earth's magnetic field ...
