This GPS module is powered by SiRF Star IV, it can provide you with superior sensitivity and performance even in urban canyon and dense foliage environment. Optional Built-in EEPROM realizes SiRF CGEE (Client Generated Extended Ephemeris) function that predicts satellite positions for up to 3 days and delivers CGEE-start time of less than 15 seconds under most conditions, without any network assistance. Besides, MicroPowerMode allows GPS module to stay in a hot-start condition nearly continuously while consuming very little power. 2 Features 3 SiRF Star IV high sensitivity solution Support 48-channel GPS Fast TTFF at low signal level Built-in active jammer remover to track up to 8 CW jammers Support Trickle Power Mode, Push To Fix Mode and Micro Power Mode Capable of SBAS (WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS) Support Japan QZSS Free CGEE technology to get faster location fix (optional) Built-in LNA (on chip) and SAW filter Small form factor 15 x 13 x 2.2 mm SMD type with stamp hole; RoHS compliant Application Personal positioning and navigation Automotive navigation Marine navigation Page 1/21 © 2012 LOCOSYS Technology Inc.

CKSUM is a two-hex character checksum as defined in the NMEA specification, NMEA-0183Standard For Interfacing Marine Electronic Devices. Use of checksums is required on all input messages. 4. Each message is terminated using Carriage Return (CR) Line Feed (LF) which is \r\n which is hex 0D0A. Because \r\n are not printable ASCII characters, they are omitted from the example strings, but must be sent to terminate the message and cause the receiver to process that input message. Note: All fields in all proprietary NMEA messages are required, none are optional. All NMEA messages are comma delimited.

Generally, this command is used to switch the module back to SiRF binary protocol mode where a more extensive command message set is available. When a valid message is received, the parameters are stored in battery-backed SRAM and the Evaluation Receiver restarts using the saved parameters.

ON_OFF pulse requires a rising edge and high level that persists for three cycles of the RTC clock in order to be detected. Resetting the ON_OFF detector requires that ON_OFF goes to logic low for at least three cycles of the RTC clock. If the module is in hibernate state, an ON_OFF high will move it to full-power mode. If the module is in MicroPower mode, an ON_OFF pulse will move it to full-power mode. If the module is in AdvancedPower mode, an ON_OFF pulse will initiate one AdvancedPower cycle. If the module is in TricklePower mode, an ON_OFF pulse will initiate one TricklePower cycle. If the module is in Push-To-Fix mode, an ON_OFF pulse will initiate one Push-To-Fix cycle. If the module is already in full-power mode, an ON_OFF pulse will initiate orderly shutdown. 3. In order to get the advantage of CGEE, this pin must be always powered during the period of effective ephemeris prediction. Page 16/21 © 2012 LOCOSYS Technology Inc.

MPM average current reduces by approximately 50% when there is valid ephemeris. 2. If using software command “$PSRF117,16*0B” or hardware ON_OFF pin to turn off GPS module and keeping VCC powered, the backup battery current will be 15uA. At the same time, the current through VCC is about 170uA. 8.3 Temperature characteristics Parameter Symbol Min. Typ. Max.
