Description
The module based on a HMC5883L or QMC5883 IC that is used to measure magnetic field in three axes XYZ. It communicates via I2C interface with an accuracy of 1 ° to 2 °. Supply voltage is 3.3 V or 5 V.
|
The product is compatible with Arduino The device comes in two versions: with HMC5883L or QMC5883 system. In the case of the module with the system QMC5883, you should use a library for Arduino fromGitHub. Available is also an even older version of the module with HMC5883L system. For this system, you need to use the library along with a sample programfor users ofArduino. |
Connection
The module communicates using the I2C interface.
