MagnaChip Begins Delivery of e-Compass Sensors in China
MagnaChip's MXG2320 e-Compass product is a Hall effect magnetic direction sensor. The MXG2320 supports high resolution (0.6uT/bit) at low voltage (1.8V/3.3V) and is well-suited for mobile applications because of its small die size (1.2mmX1.2mm). The e-Compass design win in
In addition to the MXG2320, MagnaChip is in the final development stages of a buffer-embedded, e-Compass sensor with the smallest footprint (1.2mmX0.8mm) currently available in the market. This product is now undergoing beta testing and is being evaluated for use by a major smartphone manufacturer.
The e-Compass has become an essential part of mobile device applications and has now found its way into new applications such as virtual reality, indoor navigation and drone control. An e-Compass sensor interprets compass direction through the detection of the earth's magnetic polar fields.
"MagnaChip has been developing e-Compass and other sensor products for mobile applications as part of its strategy to target emerging growth markets," said YJ Kim, CEO of
