Fluxgate Sensor Data Sheet - FMS 100

The document summarizes a miniature fluxgate magnetic field sensor called the FMS 100. It has a measurement range of ±100 μT, operates from DC to 1 kHz, and has low noise and high stability. It is a complete single-axis magnetometer requiring only a single 5V power supply. Key features include high sensitivity, low cost, and simple integration into microprocessor systems. Its applications include measurement of the Earth's magnetic field for navigation and detection of magnetic fields from sources like power lines.

Description
The magnetic field sensor FMS 100 is a miniature fluxgate magnetometer with high
resolution for the measurement of weak magnetic fields up to 100 µT. This sensor can
be used in any application where the sensitivity and stability of conventional magnetic
field sensors (Hall or MR sensors) is too low, e. g. for the measurement of the earth’s
magnetic field (for navigation) or if ferrous objects should be detected at larger distances.
The FMS 100 is a complete single axis fluxgate magnetometer which works without
onent of thepexternal drive circuits. The analog output voltage is proportional to the com
d lownmagnetic field parallel to the detection coil. Due to its single 5 V supply voltage a
current consumption it is ideally suited for battery powered or µP controlled applications

The supply and signal lines are connected to solder pads which are positioned at nodes
of a 0.1 inch grid. The excitation frequencies (typ. 17 kHz) of several sensors can be
synchronized by connecting the SYNC pads to each other.
