Adafruit TLV493D Triple-Axis Magnetometer - STEMMA QT/Qwiic
Key Features Digital output via 2-wire based standard I2C interface up to 1 MBit/sec 12-bit data resolution for each measurement direction Bx, By, and Bz linear field measurement up to +130 mT Excellent matching of X/Y measurement for accurate angle sensing The TLV493D 3-axis magnetometer is a great little sensor for detecting magnets in 3D. In fact, the manufacturer Infineon suggests it could be used to make a joystick! You could also use it for other cool things like detecting objects with magnets attached, like the lid of a box, or maybe a statue that unlocks your secret lair when placed on your mantle?The TLD493D excels at measuring nearby magnetic fields in three dimensions. It's not going to make a good compass, it's not sensitive enough to pick up the Earth's magnetic field, but you can use it to track the movement of nearby magnets in three dimensions. As we are wont to do, we've made the TLV easy to use by putting it on a breakout PCB along with the circuitry to support it. A voltage regulator and logic level shifting combine to make it usable with a range of microcontrollers with either 3.3V or 5V logic levels. We even give you a pin for you to use the excess 3.3V juice not needed by the TLV493D.Item SpecificsSame size, form-factor as the ItsyBitsy 32u4 and ItsyBitsy M0, and nearly-identical pinout as bothATSAMD51 32-bit Cortex M4 core running at 120 MHz/Floating point support with Cortex M4 DSP instructions512 KB flash, 192 KB RAM2 MB SPI FLASH chip for storing files and CircuitPython code storage.32-bit, 3.3V logic and powerBuilt in crypto engines with AES (256 bit), true RNG, Pubkey controllerNative USB supported by every OS - can be used in Arduino or CircuitPython as USB serial console, Keyboard/Mouse HID, even a little disk drive for storing Python scripts.Can be used with Arduino IDE or CircuitPythonDimensions: 25.4mm x 17.8mm x 4.6mm / 1.0" x 0.7" x 0.2"Product Weight: 1.8g / 0.1oz
