Tilt sensor |

Where can I find "tilt sensor" with analog and/or digital output indicating
the tilt angle with better than 1 degree resolution?

The Analog Devices ADXL202E is probably the most popular device around.
Fairly cheap too.
I've used it as a three axis tilt sensor, and <1 deg resolution is
easily achievable. Digital PWM output, or analog output with a filter.

How did you temperature compensate it?

Didn't need to, the end device was always used in a relatively stable
temperature environment.
