The CMPS12 is our 4th generation tilt compensated compass. Employing a 3-axis magnetometer, a 3-axis gyro and a 3-axis accelerometer. At the core of the module is the superb BNO055 running algorithms to remove the errors caused by tilting of the PCB. Powered from 3.6-5V @18mA the compass outputs the bearing reading via serial or I2C interface.

The CMPS12 module is the 4th generation tilt compensated compass from Devantech. Employing a 3-axis magnetometer and a 3-axis accelerometer and a powerful Kalman filter, the CMPS12 has been designed to remove the errors caused by tilting of the PCB.
The CMPS12 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 there raw form.
Examples of using the CMPS12 module with a wide range of popular controllers. The CMPS12 module requires a power supply at 3.6 - 5v and draws a nominal 18mA of current. There are two ways of getting the bearing from the module. A serial interface or an I2C interface
