FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62047-19 has been prepared by subcommittee 47F: Micro-
electromechanical systems, of IEC technical committee 47: Semiconductor devices.

Part 19: Electronic compasses



1 Scope
This part of IEC 62047 defines terms, definitions, essential ratings and characteristics, and
measuring methods of electronic compasses. This standard applies to electronic compasses
composed of magnetic sensors and acceleration sensors, or magnetic sensors alone. This
standard applies to electronic compasses for mobile electronic equipment.
For marine electronic compasses, see ISO 11606.
Electronic compasses are called “e-compasses” for short. Types of e-compasses are: 2-axis
e-compasses, 3-axis e-compasses, 6-axis e-compasses, etc., all of which are covered by this
standard.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and
are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any
amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
3-axis Helmholtz coil
three Helmholtz coils that generate magnetic fields at right angles to each other
3.2
zero magnetic field environment
magnetic field environments where magnetic field strength in a space including a device
under test is lower than the strength specified
Note 1 to entry: The device under test (DUT) is defined in 4.1.7.
3.3
e-compass
electronic compass
compass that calculates and outputs an azimuth using the electrical output of sensors

is the same direction a compass points to
Note 1 to entry: Geomagnetism is sometimes warped by artificial structures (buildings, vehicles, etc.), or is
sometimes affected by their magnetization especially in urban areas. Strictly, therefore, the geomagnetic vector
should be called a kind of environmental magnetic vector. Although the environmental magnetic vector does not
point to the magnetic north pole exactly, here “magnetic north” is defined as the horizontal component of an
environmental magnetic vector.
3.8
true north
direction of the horizontal component of a vector pointing to the North Pole of the Earth (north
end of rotational axis) at a location, which is the same as the north to which longitude lines or
a meridian point
3.9
azimuth angle
rotational angle around z-axis of a terminal coordinate system, which is defined as zero
degree when the xy-plane of a terminal coordinate system is horizontal and the yz-plane
includes the North Pole, where a clockwise turn is defined as positive when the z-axis is
viewed from the positive direction to the negative direction
Note 1 to entry: Azimuth angle is the same as the yaw angle, see Annex C.
Note 2 to entry: For coordinate systems of e-compasses, see Annex B.
Note 3 to entry: For an explanation with diagrams, see Annex C.
Note 4 to entry: Definitions for cases in which the xy-plane of a terminal coordinate system are not horizontal are
under consideration.
4 Essential ratings and characteristics
4.1 Composition of e-compasses
4.1.1 General
As shown in Figure 1, an e-compass is composed of the following sections:
– Magnetic sensor section;
– Acceleration sensor section;
– Signal processing section;
– Peripheral hardware sections;
– Peripheral software sections.
In some cases, an e-compass does not contain the acceleration sensor section and/or the
peripheral hardware section.

Figure 1 – Composition of e-compasses
4.1.2 Magnetic sensor section
A magnetic sensor section is a magnetic sensor to measure magnetic fields of an Earth's
magnetism level, which measures two or more axes of magnetic fields that are at right angles
to each other for calculating azimuth angles using its output.
In the case of a 3-axis magnetic sensor, for example, the sensor section is composed of an x-
axis sensor, a y-axis sensor, and a z-axis sensor, and the sensitivity axis of the x-axis sensor
is set to the x-axis.
4.1.3 Acceleration sensor section
An acceleration sensor section is an acceleration sensor to measure gravity. Vertical direction
(horizontal plane) is known from its output, and then an azimuth angle is calculated based on
the information with correction considering the attitude of the magnetic sensor section (tilt
angle).
In the case of a 3-axis acceleration sensor, for example, the sensor section is composed of an
x-axis sensor, a y-axis sensor, and a z-axis sensor, and the sensitivity axis of the x-axis
sensor is set to the x-axis.
4.1.4 Signal processing section
A signal processing section is a circuit section to drive the sensor section and to amplify its
signal. In some cases, this section includes an analog-digital converter.
4.1.5 Peripheral hardware section
A peripheral hardware section includes sections of a digital interface, data storage for
information to control registers and devices, and an information processing.
4.1.6 Peripheral software section
A peripheral software section includes not only a device driver section to acquire data but
also software to convert the coordinate data from magnetic sensors and acceleration sensors
and to calculate azimuth angles based on the results.

4.1.7 DUT
The DUT is a functional composition composed of the magnetic sensor section, the
acceleration sensor section, the signal processing section, and the peripheral hardware
section. For e-compasses not having the acceleration sensor section and/or the peripheral
hardware section, the DUT is a functional composition composed of the magnetic sensor
section and the signal processing section. Measurements of ratings and characteristics are
made using the DUT.
4.2 Ratings (Limiting values)
The following items should be described in the specification, unless otherwise stated in the
relevant procurement specifications. Stresses over these limits can be one of the causes of
permanent damage to the devices:
– Power supply voltage;
– Input voltage;
– Input current;
– Storage temperature;
– Mechanical shock (requisite for 6-axis e-compasses);
– Maximum magnetic field (can be omitted).
4.3 Recommended operating conditions
The following items should be described in the specification, unless otherwise stated in the
relevant procurement specifications. These conditions are recommended in order to keep the
characteristics of the DUT (the devices) stable state during operation:
– Power supply voltage;
– Input voltage;
– Operating temperature.
4.4 Electric characteristics
4.4.1 General
Electric characteristics specified in this standard are those of sensor sections and DC
characteristics. For the selection of essential ratings and characteristics, see Annex A.
4.4.2 Characteristics of sensor sections
Characteristics of sensor sections are listed as shown in Table 1.
