Magnetometer for high performance avionics
3-axis magnetometer
The magneto-inductive geomagnetic sensor technology provides high resolution, low power consumption, immunity to large signal noise, a wide dynamic range and high sampling rates to measure the X, Y and Z vector components of the magnetic field.
I/O Expansion Module
Veronte Avionics MEX increases the capacity of input and output ports on Veronte autopilots or other devices. It can be used both to expand I/O in the system and to connect devices with weak signals using a robust communication protocol.
CAN Bus Management
The built-in microcontroller performs real-time monitoring of the CAN bus and, in case of anomaly or malfunction, disconnects the equipment, isolating it from the critical communication bus. Redundancy and isolation in the system’s power supply make it resistant to failures.

Advanced Magnetic Compass
It uses magneto-inductive technology to measure the magnetic field in 3 axes.
Magneto Inductive Technology
Geomagnetic sensor technology offers high resolution, significant immunity to signal noise, wide dynamic range and high sampling rates.
Orientation in 3 Axes
The magnetic compass detects the direction and strength of a magnetic field, including the Earth’s magnetic field, to provide altitude and orientation references for any vehicle.
HMR2300 spare part
Veronte Avionics MEX is a direct replacement for Honeywell MHR-2300 through the serial port. It was widely used in drones and other autonomous vehicles.

Robust Performance
Redundant Communication
One of the advantages of Veronte MEX is the robustness of CAN Bus communications. It includes a redundant CAN Bus with galvanic isolation, so it can continue to operate and communicate with the autopilot even if a CAN Bus line is broken.
Fault Detection
The system incorporates algorithms for message filtering and detection of “chattering idiot faults”. Equipped with an integrated microcontroller, it performs real-time monitoring of the CAN Bus to be able to react quickly in case of anomalies or failures on the Bus.
Peripheral Isolation
The advanced control of actuators and peripherals becomes feasible, being possible to condense the connection of control, feedback, sensors… using several analog, digital, serial ports, etc. on a redundant CAN bus robust to failures and line breaks.
Robustness and Flexibility
Offered in two different versions: Veronte MEX (protected by a 6061-T6 anodized aluminum housing) and Veronte MEX OEM (smaller and lighter, but requires mechanical protection when installed). Both versions feature reverse polarity protection, ESD protection and independent power supplies to ensure system robustness.
Certifiable
During the development of Veronte Avionics MEX, the aviation design standards DO178C / ED-12 and DO254 / ED 80 are followed. This allows to ensure hardware and software reliability for eVTOL and UAV certification, as well as for installation on critical autonomous vehicles. In addition, DO160 and MIL-STD-810 tests ensure robustness against adverse environmental conditions.
Robustez y flexibilidad
Se ofrece en dos versiones diferentes: Veronte MEX (está protegido por una carcasa de aluminio anodizado 6061-T6) y Veronte MEX OEM (es más pequeño y ligero, pero requiere protección mecánica cuando se instala). Ambas versiones vienen con protección contra inversión de polaridad, protección ESD y fuentes de alimentación independientes para garantizar la robustez del sistema.
Certifiable
Durante el desarrollo de Veronte Avionics MEX se siguen las normas de diseño aeronáutico DO178C / ED-12 y DO254 /ED 80. Permite garantizar la fiabilidad del hardware y el software para la certificación eVTOL y UAV y para la instalación en vehículos autónomos críticos. Además, los permisos de ensayo DO160 y MIL-STD-810 garantizan la robustez frente a condiciones ambientales adversas.
