Honeywell HMC1055 Handbook
Summary
The HMC1055 3-Axis Compass Sensor Set provides integrated solutions for developing tilt-compensated compass systems. This kit combines specialized two-axis magnetoresistive sensors (for X-Y axis Earth's field detection), a dedicated Z-axis sensor, and a high-precision 2-axis accelerometer. The comprehensive manual guides Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) through the product architecture, including detailed reference designs, function descriptions, and integration tips. It is essential for system designers requiring accurate, reliable, triaxial heading data across varying temperature and tilt conditions.

3-AXIS COMPASS SENSOR SET
Features
3 Precision Sensor Components 2-Axis Magnetoresistive Sensor for X-Y Axis Earth’s Field Detection 1-Axis Magnetoresistive Sensor for Z-Axis Earth’s Field Detection 2-Axis Accelerometer for 60° Tilt Compensation 2.7 to 5.5 volt Supply Range 3-Axis Compass Reference Design Included
Product Description
The Honeywell HMC1055 3-Axis Compass Sensor Set combines the popular HMC1051Z one-axis and the HMC1052 two-axis magneto-resistive sensors plus a 2- axis MEMSIC MXS3334UL accelerometer in a single kit. By combining these three sensor packages, OEM compass system designers will have the building blocks needed to create their own tilt compensated compass designs using these proven components.
The HMC1055 chip set includes the three sensor integrated circuits and an application note describing sensor function, a reference design, and design tips for integrating the compass feature into other product platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the HMC1055 set?
It combines the HMC1051Z one-axis sensor, the HMC1052 two-axis sensor, and a 2-axis MEMSIC MXS3334UL accelerometer.
How do I compensate for current temperature changes?
For best accuracy in heading, a new calibration should be performed when operating in a new temperature environment.
What is the acceptable supply voltage range?
The system has a supply range from 2.7 to 5.5 volts, and the accelerometer module requires Vdd = 2.7 to 5.0 volts for operation.
How can I measure the bridge offset?
To find the true offset value, you can sum two measurements—one after a reset pulse and one after a set pulse—and divide the result by two.
