LIS3MDL

Key datasheet specifications and the closest alternatives, ranked by parametric similarity and grounded in the manufacturer datasheet.

01 — Overview

This STMicroelectronics datasheet covers the LIS3MDL, a high-performance digital output 3-axis magnetometer. Designed for applications like compasses and magnetometers, it offers ultra-low power consumption with selectable full scales from ±4 to ±16 gauss. Key parameters include a wide supply voltage of 1.9V to 3.6V, independent IO supply support, and 16-bit data output. The device features interrupt generation, self-test capability, and operates over an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. It communicates via I2C or SPI interfaces and is available in a compact LGA-12 package.
