Linx Technologies ASY-MDEV-GPS-SG-DB - Manual

DESCRIPTION
The SG Series GPS receiver module is a self-contained high-performance GPS
receiver with an on-board LNA and SAW filter. Based on the SiRFstar III chipset, it
provides exceptional sensitivity, even in dense foliage and urban canyons. The
module’s very low power consumption helps maximize runtimes in battery powered
applications. With over 200,000 effective correlators, the SG Series receiver can
acquire and track up to 20 satellites simultaneously in just seconds, even at the
lowest signal levels. These features, along with the module’s standard NMEA data
output, make it easy to integrate, even by engineers without previous RF or GPS
experience. The Linx SG Series GPS modules offer a simple, efficient and cost-
effective method of adding GPS capabilities to any product.
The Master Development System daughter board contains the surface mount SG
Series GPS module, SMA connector and a ferrite bead (used to supply power to an
external active antenna, such as the Linx UC or SH Series active GPS antennas) on
a single board with through-hole headers. This small board makes prototyping with
the SG Series module very easy.
