Adafruit TLV493D Triple-Axis Magnetometer - STEMMA QT/Qwiic
Key Features Digital output via 2-wire based standard I2C interface up to 1 MBit/sec 12-bit data resolution for each measurement direction Bx, By, and Bz linear field measurement up to +130 mT Excellent matching of X/Y measurement for accurate angle sensing The TLV493D 3-axis magnetometer is a great little sensor for detecting magnets in 3D. In fact, the manufacturer Infineon suggests it could be used to make a joystick! You could also use it for other cool things like detecting objects with magnets attached, like the lid of a box, or maybe a statue that unlocks your secret lair when placed on your mantle?The TLD493D excels at measuring nearby magnetic fields in three dimensions. It's not going to make a good compass, it's not sensitive enough to pick up the Earth's magnetic field, but you can use it to track the movement of nearby magnets in three dimensions. As we are wont to do, we've made the TLV easy to use by putting it on a breakout PCB along with the circuitry to support it. A
