The Xtrinsic MAG3110 is a small-profile, low-power, 3-axis digital magnetometer that delivers enhanced digital electronic compass (eCompass) functionality for location-based services (LBS) such as navigation, dead-reckoning, and location-tracking in smart mobile devices and other electronics.

Freescale Semiconductor (Austin, TX) is expanding its Xtrinsic line of intelligent sensing solutions with the introduction of the MAG3110, the company’s first magnetometer. The Xtrinsic MAG3110 is a small-profile, low-power, 3-axis digital magnetometer that delivers enhanced digital electronic compass (eCompass) functionality for location-based services (LBS) such as navigation, dead-reckoning, and location-tracking in smart mobile devices and other electronics. Features include:

• A wide dynamic range of +/- 10,000 micro Tesla.
• High resolution in a full dynamic range of 0.1 micro Tesla.
• 250nT noise.
• A normal power consumption mode of 24 micro amps at 1.25 Hz.
• 80 Hz maximum sampling rate.
• A I2C interface at 400 kHz.
• A supply voltage of 1.95 to 3.6 V.
• OS drivers available.
• Data synchronization interrupts.
• Ultra small 2 x 2 x 0.8 mm 10-pin DFN package.
• An operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
