LIS2MDLTR

LIS2MDLTR is a specific part number for a 3-axis magnetometer sensor manufactured by STMicroelectronics. The LIS2MDLTR is a low-power, high-performance magnetometer sensor designed to measure magnetic fields in three dimensions. It is commonly used in various applications such as compassing, navigation, gaming, and augmented reality.

Here are some key features and specifications of the LIS2MDLTR:

1. 3-Axis Magnetometer: The sensor is capable of measuring magnetic fields along three orthogonal axes, typically labeled as X, Y, and Z axes. This allows for accurate sensing of magnetic field strength and direction in three dimensions.

2. Sensitivity and Resolution: The LIS2MDLTR offers high sensitivity and resolution, allowing it to detect even small changes in magnetic fields. The sensitivity is usually specified in terms of milligauss (mG) per LSB (Least Significant Bit).

3. Wide Measurement Range: The sensor can measure magnetic fields across a wide range, typically from a few microteslas (µT) to several tens of milliteslas (mT).

4. Low Power Consumption: The LIS2MDLTR is designed to operate with low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered devices and applications where energy efficiency is crucial.

5. Integrated Features: The sensor may include integrated features such as self-test capability, programmable interrupt generation, and data filtering options to enhance its functionality and ease of use.

6. I2C and SPI Interface: The LIS2MDLTR typically interfaces with the host microcontroller or system through standard communication protocols such as I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) or SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface).

7. Package: The package type for the LIS2MDLTR may vary, but common options include LGA (Land Grid Array) or QFN (Quad Flat No-Lead) packages.
