Abstract

The design is comprised of single-chip computer module, liquid crystal display module, sensor module, clock chip module and speech chip module. Magnetoresistive sensor is responsible for collection of magnetic field strength in specific direction, while clock chip is for calculation of data such as time and calendar. After that, the data are processed by microprocessor and then are displayed and uploaded by display screen. After debugging, accuracy rating of the compass could reach 3 degree, current azimuth will be displayed on LCD1602 liquid crystal display and will be broadcasted by speech chip. Comparing with traditional compass, this electronic compass is more portable and convenient with certain practical value.
