Extremely compact OEM GPS Receiver Module featuring high performance, cost effective design making it very suitable for all NMEA type of applications |
 |
The Fastrax IT100 is an ultra small SMD Macro Component. It is a versatile OEM GPS receiver for applications that require only an NMEA-machine -type of receiver. It is suitable for integrated GPS applications where high performance and low cost are key issues.
High performance receiver architecture
It is based on the SONY single chip GPS receiver device with built in ROM firmware. In addition a one stage LNA, TCXO and RTC are included. Necessary on board regulators are also included for ease of use. Typical Cold Start TTFF is 45s. State-of-the-art signal acquisition and tracking circuitry enables weak signal capability in difficult environments.
Versatile interfaces
The Fastrax IT100 is very easy to use. The interface pins carries all necessary signals for making typical NMEA machine -type of applications possible. The user needs only to connect the power supplies (main supply and battery backup supply) to make it functional. Low power mode is simply achieved by removing the main power supply at any time. The receiver will resume normal operation once the main power supply is reconnected.
NMEA0183 output can be customized using SONY ASCII protocol. (Port 1). Default Baud Rate is 4800 baud. It can be configured for 4800, 9600, 19200 or 38400 using Pins 11 and 15.
A highly accurate 1PPS timing pulse is also available. A valid fix output can be used for indicating the state of the receiver (acquisition, tracking and navigation modes).
