M10382 GPS Radionova
Antenova has released the M10382 GPS Radionova, a surface-mount GPS radio antenna module for embedded GPS, machine-to-machine (M2M) and mobile device manufacturers.
The M10382 Radionova incorporates the u-blox 6 GPS chipset with the company's GPS antenna utilising Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) technology in a compact, low-profile package.
The company said the M10382 offers manufacturers the convenience of a complete GPS system solution in a compact, surface-mountable device with patented external matching, which offers ease of tuning for each device platform.
The M10382 is an integrated GPS RF antenna module suitable for L1-band GPS and A-GPS systems.
All front-end and receiver components are contained in a 24.2 x 9.9 x 3.9mm surface-mountable device providing a complete GPS receiver for optimum performance.
The M10382 operates on a single 1.8V or 3.3V positive supply with low power consumption and several low-power modes for further power savings.
An accurate 0.5ppm TCXO and very low noise LNA ensures high sensitivity and short time-to-first-fix (TTFF).
The M10382 is supported by U-blox standalone software and is compatible with UART, SPI, DDC, I2C and USB host processor interfaces.
It is also said to benefit from Antenova's external matching, which ensures easy tuning for each platform.
