The new GPS receiver SL868, based on SiRF Star IV chip-set is targeted to assist companies to easily integrate GPS functionally into their products. This enables to reduce the development times and cost by using a complete, small form factor, low power and ready to integrate GPS module SL865 to the customer application.
GPS receiver SL868 features
16 x 12 mm, 24-pad, LCC packaging suitable for low, medium and high volumes, when manual soldering/reworking is a key factor. The GPS receiver SE868 is provided with an internal Flash memory to store operative software, software updates and Extended Ephemeris files. The GPS receiver integrates a software engine to locally predict the ephemeris for 3 days in advance, starting from ephemeris data collected by GPS satellites.
SL868 is equipped with integrated LNA as well as a wide set of interfaces like UART, I2C, and SPI. It supports assisted ephemeris file injection as well as Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) like WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS and GAGAN.
