Yamaha Corporation has developed the YAS529 three-axis Geomagnetic Sensor IC chip. Yamaha plans to start shipping its samples in October, 2006. Measuring 2 mm x 2 mm x 1 mm, the chip is expected to be in strong demand for applications related to mobile phones and compact navigation systems. The YAS529 combines a buffer amp, an A/D converter, a clock generator, and a serial interface circuit (I2c bus compatible) on a single three-axis geomagnetic sensor IC chip. When used with portable GPS systems and mobile phones, the YAS529 chip offers high-sensitivity, low-power, and compact electronic compass functions.
