Radenio Electronic Compass Module GY-271 uses a HMC5883L chip to provide a high performance electronic compass function. IIC (I2C) communication protocol is used. Accuracy up to 1 degree. It is suitable for major micro-controller including Arduino, 8051, AVR etc. Datasheet and example programs will be provided.
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Great little package, almost as pictured.....almost....mine has a nice little blank spot with only solder pads where the compass chip SHOULD be! Guess I should have read the reviews.....
I'm an engineer so accuracy and repeat-ability are the first two things I look for coming out of a sensor. This one is very repeatable. It thinks 050 is 360 every time. But it also thinks around 140 is 180 every time too. It seems too sensitive to movement between its 0 and 180 and way less sensitive to movement between it's 180 degrees and 360 degrees. It's span between 180 and 360 actually cover about 220+ real world degrees.
Arrived on time. Seems to work as intended but I've only had it for a couple days. 4 stars because it is a hard to mount without any brackets on board Data sheet: http://www.adafruit.com/datasheets/HMC5883L_3-Axis_Digital_Compass_IC.pdf Arduino Guide: http://www.meccanismocomplesso.org/en/arduino-magnetic-magnetic-magnetometer-hmc5883l/ Raspberry Pi Guide : http://blog.bitify.co.uk/2013/11/connecting-and-calibrating-hmc5883l.html
The Arduino Guide is written in Wiring while the Raspberry Pi guide is written for Python
Works as intended and comes with both straight and right-angle pins. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it does not include the datasheet or example programs mentioned in the description.
