Fits full-attitude heading where you need a Jewell Instruments ECV Series eCompass—full-sphere heading with ±90° pitch / ±180° roll, 3-axis magnetometer plus gyro and accelerometer, heading 0.1° rms static/level (default filtering), and RS-232/RS-485 NMEA/binary output.

Key advantages

  • Attitude — Full-sphere heading; ±90°/±180° tilt
  • Heading — 0.1° rms static/level (default filtering)
  • Sensors — Mag + gyro + accel (+ optional electrolytic tilt)
  • Update — 27.5 measurements/s; 36 ms min
  • Supply — 6–45 VDC class; ~40 mA run

Typical applications

  • UAV / ROV heading modules.
  • Full-attitude platforms.
  • Industrial orientation.

Selection guide

  • Interface
  • Optional electrolytic tilt
  • Filtering

Common mistakes

  • Hard-iron fields.
  • Ignoring dip ±80°.
  • Wrong mounting frame.
