GPS


This is a high gain GPS Receiver (5V Serial) with 4-pin 2.54mm pitch Berg strip. Receiver is
made with third generation POT (Patch Antenna On Top) GPS module. The built in 3V3 to 5V level
convertor enable us to interface with normal 5V Microcontrollers. Its low pin count (4-Pin) will make
it easy to interface and it is bread board friendly (2.54 mm connector). The 4 Pins are 5V, TX, RX,
GND.

Yes, there is no setting required, just plug in to the power (5V), your data (NMEA 0183) is
ready at TX pin! This is a standalone 5V GPS Module and requires no external components. It has
internal RTC Back up battery. It can be directly connected to Microcontroller's USART.
This GPS engine provides a solution with high position and speed accuracy performances as
well as high sensitivity and tracking capabilities in urban conditions and it provides standard
NMEA0183 strings in “raw” mode for any microcontroller. The module provides current time, date,
latitude, longitude, speed, altitude and travel direction / heading among other data, and can be used in
a host of applications, including navigation, tracking systems, fleet management, mapping and
robotics.
The GPS chipsets inside the module are designed by MediaTek Inc.,which is the world's
leading digital media solution provider and largest fab-less IC company in Taiwan. The module can
support up to 51 channels. The GPS solution enables small form factor devices. They deliver major
advancements in GPS performances, accuracy, integration, computing power and flexibility. They are
designed to simplify the embedded system integration process.
