The HMC1042L 2-Axis magnetic sensor features the same footprint as the HMC1052L with higher performance and less cross-axis effect. The small 3mm x 3mm footprint cuts board space by about 70%. This device offers a nearly perfect orthogonal 2-Axis sensing of 0.01 degrees for more accurate heading requirements. The patented “Set/Reset” functions eliminate the effects of temperature and stray magnetic fields. The HMC1042L is a precision sensor for small, high accuracy applications.
