The CMPS09 from Devantech is a tilt compensated magnetic
compass. Employing a 3-axis magnetometer, a 3-axis
accelerometer and a powerful 16-bit processor, the CMPS09
has been designed to remove the errors caused by tilting of
the PCB. The CMPS09 produces a result of 0-3599 representing
0-359.9 or 0 to 255.
The output of the three sensors measuring x, y and z
components of the magnetic field, together with the
pitch and roll are used to calculate the bearing, each
of these components are also made available in their raw
form. We have also written examples of using the CMPS09
module with a wide range of popular controllers. The
CMPS09 module requires a power supply at 3.3V - 5V and
draws a nominal 25mA of current. There are three ways of
getting the bearing from the module. A serial interface,
an I2C interface or a PWM output.
An I2C interface is available on many popular microcontrollers
such as the
BASIC
Stamp BS2P and may be easily implemented on most PIC
microcontrollers using either the
PicBasic or
PicBasic Pro
compiler.

of popular controllers may be found
