A2100-A/B SiRFstarIV GPS Module: Positioning Products The Answer to All Challenges GPS Receiver Modules Smart GPS Antenna Modules Telematics Platforms The A2100 GPS modules enable fastest acquisition and tracking with the latest SiRFstarIV technology. With module versions supporting either 3.3V or 1.8V there is an appropriate solution for all telematics and power-sensitive mobile consumer application devices. In any case the module fully answers the demand for lowest power consumption with – amongst other features – SiRFawareTM technology. The removal of jammers does not only facilitate designs of new products, but guarantees operation even in hostile environments. Highest sensitivity, during acquisition or while tracking, allows for use in many different environments and under toughest conditions. Features Complete GPS module Direct passive antenna support Jamming detection and removal Flash-based design Best acquisition sensitivity Lowest tracking power consumption SiRFawareTM for constant Hot Start I I I Benefits Easy integration Fastest design-in Minimal BOM Configuration / Firmware update Ideally suited for all small battery powered GPS applications GPS Solutions for Many Applications With the mission to support our customers in implementing GPS functionality into their systems,Vincotech is offering a distinct product portfolio to address a wide area of applications. These range from traditional telematics solutions to latest highly integrated consumer devices, all of them having their special requirements towards a GPS module. Based on SiRFstarIII and now also SiRFstarIV chip sets, Vincotech GPS module solutions address different specific needs and combine high performance, low power consumption, and simplified integration effort. Our modules comply with the RoHS standard and are 100% electrically and functionally tested prior to packaging, thereby assuring the guarantee of the highest quality products.
