  The Vector 2X is a compass with a serial interface. I did a project a
couple of years back that converted it into a NMEA 0183 magnetic heading
sentence. Its pretty easy to interface to, I used the SPI on a Motorola
68HC705C8, so I don't know why you would need any glue chips between it
and your micro.

  There was a product release on it in Circuit Cellar Ink a ways back, and
I'm sure you can find it by using a search engine.
