Digital Compass Solutions
HMR3200/HMR3300
The Honeywell HMR3200/HMR3300 are digital compass
solutions for use in precision heading applications.
Honeywell’s magnetoresistive sensors are utilized to
provide the reliability and accuracy of these small, solid
state compass designs. These compass solutions are
designed for generic precision compass integration into
customer systems using a 5-voltage logic level serial data
interface with commands in ASCII format.
The HMR3200 is a two-axis precision compass with three
orthogonal magnetoresistive sensors, and can be used in
either vertical or horizontal orientations.
The HMR3300 includes a MEMS accelerometer for a horizontal three-axis, tilt compensated precision compass for
performance up to a ±60° tilt range.
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.
