anybody using an HMC5983 sensor or has experience with that? Compared with the 5883L it can output at higher rates and is temperature-compensated. I'm planning to build an external compass pole...

I am using it over the SPI - works like a charm! The only thing that surprises me is that with no averaging and averaging over 2 and 4 samples (configuration register A, bits MA1 and MA2 from 0 to 2) it still maintains 224 Hz output rate and drops it to half of that (112 Hz) only when I request averaging over 8 samples (MA1MA2= 0b11).
