Alps Alpine HSCD Geomagnetic Sensors

Alps Alpine HSCD Geomagnetic Sensors are high-sensitivity, 3-axis magnetic sensors with 0.15µT/LSB resolution. The sensors are housed in an 8-pin LGA package that measures 1.6mm x 1.6mm x 0.65mm. They offer a ±2.4mT measurement range. Alps Alpine HSCD Geomagnetic Sensors offer digital output and feature a mounted sensor that detects terrestrial magnetism, which works well in robotic applications.
