The Design and Implementation of Tri-Axial Magnetometer

Abstract:

The design, implementation, and testing of a tri-axial magnetometer instrument are introduced. The design is based on the MAG3110 chip. This chip has the properties of low power consumption and high resolution in the conventional mode. It runs with the peak power at 86.4μJ and the resolution of 0.1μT. The 12C5A60S2 MCU is chose as the data process and transfer unit. The data from the MCU is received by the principal computer through serial port. The measurement results, including the strength and the three component of magnetic field are displayed on PC by real-time curve through a VB programmed interface. The comparison between the measurements and the theoretical values shows that this instrument has the characteristic of high accuracy, high sensitivity and real-time display.
