Hi folks,
What kind of detection range is possible with a magnetometer?
I realize magnet (detecting a neodymium magnet) strength will play a big factor, but what sort of range might one expect with a coin size N42 magnet?
Would a three axis device be superior to a 2 or even single axis device? I'd like to detect polarity as well.
Any advice would be welcome.
Thanks,

(I'm asking about an accelerometer application in an other thread but need to order both devices so I'm asking about this as well)
