Even the tiniest magnetoresistive sensor allows you to harness the earth’s entire magnetic field

G
and Honeywell SSEC manufactures the most sensitive and reliable low-field sensors in the industry.

N
We build products that accurately detect the presence and magnitude of the earth’s magnetic field.

E
Our magnetoresistive technology provides the ideal solution for your compassing, navigation and

position sensing needs. Honeywell SSEC magnetic products range from discrete sensors for

T
low-cost applications to high-performance, solid state magnetometers and compass modules

I
designed to function optimally on any platform. Applications include:

C

1- and 2-Axis Magnetic Sensors
(HMC1001, HMC1002,

O
HMC1021 and HMC1022)

D
These sensors are high in sensitivity and reliability, built with
our solid state magnetoresistive technology. They are specifically

U
designed to be low in cost for high volume OEM applications.
Used individually, they can sense fields on either one or two axes.

C
Combined they allow three-axes sensing. This flexible configurability creates a
powerful tool capable of sensing magnetic fields as low as 30 µgauss while converting
the data into a differential output voltage. These sensors have virtually eliminated errors due

T
to hysteresis and repeatability. These sensors are the building block components in our magnetometers and
compasses. Solid state and small size reduce your board assembly costs and improve reliability and ruggedness.

• Wide field range of up to ±6 gauss

S
• Low hysteresis and high repeatability
• Small package
— 1-axis part in an 8-pin SIP, 8-pin SOIC or a ceramic 8-pin DIP package
— 2-axis part in a 16-pin or 20-pin SOIC package
— designed for the 1- and 2-axis to cooperatively provide 3-axis sensing
• Patented on-chip straps can reduce the effect of temperature drift, non-linearity errors,
offset errors, and effects of hard iron distortion
• Cost-effective for high volume OEM applications

designed to excel in applications requiring precise orthogonal

sensing of the x, y and z axes. Improved design draws less power and can
N

operate with less than 3 volt supply. Using a custom Ball Grid Array (BGA),
with 1mm pitch the HMC 1023 board-level footprint (<31mm2) is the smallest 3-axis
E

magnetic sensor available and its sensitivity of 85 µGauss far exceeds its closest competition.

Displacement Sensors

G
(HMC1501/HMC1512)

N
The HMC1501 and HMC1512 sensors measure the angle
and position of a moving magnet. Since they do not measure field

E
strength, they are insensitive to magnet temperature variations and
less sensitive to shock and vibration. These sensors can withstand
large variations in the gap between the sensor and the magnet. Both

T
can operate on < 3V with a bandwidth response up to 5 MHz.

I
• Operates with low cost magnets, unlike competitors that require costly rare earth magnets
• Wide angular range; the HMC1501 has an angular range of ±45˚ with <0.07˚ resolution,

C
while the HMC1512 has an angular range of ±90˚ with <0.07˚ resolution
• Typical 14mm linear range with a single sensor, range may be increased through multiple
sensor arrays operating together
• Absolute sensing allows sensors to know the exact position, requiring

S
no indexing for proper positional output
• Non-contact sensing means no moving parts to wear out and no dropped

E
signals from worn tracks
• Small package with case-only dimensions of 5mm x 4mm x 1.2mm

N
• Large signal output range of 120mV with 5V supply
