Three-Axis Magnetic Sensor
HMC1043L
The Honeywell HMC1043L is a miniature three-axis surface mount sensor array
designed for low field magnetic sensing. By adding the HMC1043L with supporting
signal processing, a cost effective and space-efficient three-axis magnetometer or
compassing solution is enabled. This ultra-compact, low cost solution is easy to
assemble for high volume OEM designs. Applications for the HMC1043L include
Compassing, Navigation Systems, Magnetometry, and Current Sensing.
The HMC1043L utilizes Honeywell’s Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) technology
that provides advantages over coil based magnetic sensors. They are extremely
sensitive, low field, solid-state magnetic sensors designed to measure direction and magnitude of Earth’s magnetic fields,
from tens of micro-gauss to 6 gauss. Honeywell’s Magnetic Sensors are among the most sensitive and reliable low-field
sensors in the industry.
Honeywell continues to maintain product excellence and performance by introducing innovative solid-state magnetic
sensor solutions. These are highly reliable, top performance products that are delivered when promised. Honeywell’s
magnetic sensor solutions provide real solutions you can count on.

MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
The following is the recommend printed circuit board (PCB) footprint for the HMC1043L.
NOTE: The HMC1043L is designed to fit on the
same landing pad designed for an HMC1043.
Top View
Each of the sixteen pads on the HMC1043L is spaced on 0.5mm centers with 4 pads per side. Each pad is nominally
0.20mm by 0.40mm with a tin over copper finish. Recommended PCB lands for the HMC1043L are outsized to 0.28mm
by 0.65mm for 0.025mm sides plus 0.05mm inside and 0.20mm outside areas. The extra area is for good reflow
attachment and enough pad contact exposure for test probing if necessary.
Stencil Design and Solder Paste
A 4 mil stencil and 100% paste coverage is recommended for the eight electrical contact pads. Do not apply paste on the
leveling pads. The HMC1043L
is expected to be
tested successfully with no-clean solder paste.
Pick and Place
Placement is machine dependant and no restrictions are recommended. The HMC1043L weight is 25.6 milli-grams.
Reflow and Rework
This device
is expected to be
classified as MSL 3 with 260
C
peak reflow temperature. A baking process (125
C,
24
hrs) is required if device is not kept continuously in a dry (< 10% RH) environment before assembly. No special reflow
profile is required for HMC1043 which is compatible with lead eutectic and lead-free solder paste reflow profiles.
Honeywell recommends the adherence to solder paste manufacturer’s guidelines.
