LIS3MDL set/reset circuit

[arslanoglu]

Hi,
We were looking at the LIS3MDL sensor. Apparently it is a magnetoresistive sensor. When we examined other magnetoresistive sensors in the market we have seen that they need set/reset circuits in order to compensate for the disturbances in the magnetic domains of magnetoresistive sensors. However, in the datasheet of LIS3MDL we couldn't see anything about it. Does LIS3MDL require an external set/reset circuit or is it already in the chip?

Hi @arslanoglu ,

Welcome to ST Community!

For our magnetometers, it is required only the capacitance on PIN4, no other circuit is needed.
