Description
This 3-Axis Magnetic Field Sensor can sense the Earth’s magnetic field, magnetic fields from current-carrying coils, and permanent magnets. There are two ranges: ±50 gauss and ±1300 gauss. This sensor is primarily for static fields.
Applications
- Measure the magnetic field of permanent magnets.
- Measure Earth’s magnetic field.
- Measure field strength of Helmholtz coils.
