IIS2MDCTR Description

A 3-axis digital magnetic sensor with outstanding precision and extremely little power is called the IIS2MDCTR.

The magnetic field dynamic range of the IIS2MDCTR is up to ±50 gauss.

The IIS2MDCTR has an SPI serial standard interface in addition to an I2C serial bus interface that supports standard, fast mode, fast mode plus, and high-speed (100 kHz, 400 kHz, 1 MHz, and 3.4 MHz).

The system can be set up to produce an interrupt signal when a magnetic field is detected.

The IIS2MDCTR is guaranteed to function across an extended temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C and is offered in a plastic land grid array packaging (LGA).
