Le Tableau à 6 clics Compass™ est une carte complémentaire compacte parfaite pour une mise en œuvre dans des applications telles qu'une boussole électronique. Cette carte comprend le HSCDTD008A, un capteur géomagnétique haute sensibilité d'ALPS Alpine. Cette boussole configurable I2C intègre un capteur magnétique capable de mesurer des intensités de champ magnétique de ±2,4 mT sur chacun de ses trois axes et fournit une résolution de sortie de 0,15 µT/LSB. La plage de mesure plus complète du HSCDTD008A est le résultat de l'application d'un processus à couche mince et d'une technologie de simulation magnétique. Cette Click Board™ est destinée à être utilisée dans des équipements électroniques compacts et fonctionne bien dans les applications robotiques en raison de sa fonction de détection du magnétisme terrestre.
Le tableau à clic Compass 6™ est pris en charge par une bibliothèque compatible mikroSDK, qui comprend des fonctions qui simplifient le développement logiciel. Cette Click Board™ est un produit entièrement testé, prêt à être utilisé sur un système équipé du socket mikroBUS™.
How Does The Compass 6 Click Board™ Work?
The Compass 6 Click Board™ as its foundation uses the HSCDTD008A, a high-sensitivity three-axis terrestrial magnetism sensor from ALPS Alpine. It comes with an integrated drive circuit, signal processing circuit, and serial interface block, allowing low noise and high resolution. The HSCDTD008A can measure magnetic field strengths of ±2.4mT on each of its three axes and provides an output resolution of 0.15µT/LSB. This Click board™ represents a perfect choice for implementation in applications such as an electronic compass.
At the beginning of the operation, all internal circuits and registers are set to the default state by turning the power ON. The operating mode is set to a low-power Standby mode automatically by Power-On reset. In addition to the Standby mode, this sensor also has an Active mode for power control accessible through a register command. The active mode has two states: the force state that starts measurement and outputs data by register command, and the Normal state, which performs measurement and outputs data using the internal timer trigger.
Compass 6 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface to read data and configure settings, supporting Standard Mode operation with a clock frequency of 100kHz, Fast Mode up to 400kHz, and Fast Mode Plus up to 1MHz, in addition to the High-Speed Mode. It also features an additional ready signal, labeled as RDY and routed on the INT pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, that informs when new measured results for the host are updated.
This Click board™ can be operated only with a 3.3V logic voltage level. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before use with MCUs with different logic levels. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.

Additional Notes and Information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
mikroSDK
This Click board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
