Description: It is a high gain GPS Receiver (RS232) made with ultra small High gain third generation POT (Patch Antenna On Top) GPS module. Yes, there is no prior configurations required , just apply power (7V) by DC adpater or to RMC Connector from a battery or USB , your data (NMEA 0183) is ready at TX pin !. This is a stand alone GPS Module and requires no external components .It has a very compact and easy to integrate design with the ultimate tracking performances. The USB is only to power up the GPS, data will be available only at RS232 Port. so you will be able to power the GPS via USB and receive the data using RS232. No separate power Required.
With the use high gain GPS engine providing a solution that high position and speed accuracy performances as well as high sensitivity and tracking capabilities in urban conditions & 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 66 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.
