u-blox has announced the launch of two GPS modules based on the company's fifth generation positioning engine, which boasts an acquisition performance of less than one second and an impressive -160 dBm acquisition and tracking sensitivity.
The versatile, standalone LEA-5 GPS receivers combine an extensive array of features with flexible connectivity options. Their ease of integration results in fast times-to-market for a wide range of automotive, consumer and industrial applications with strict size and cost requirements. This new generation is backwards compatible to ensure migration from LEA-4 module designs.
u-blox 5 offers an ultra-fast acquisition time thanks to its 50-channel GPS architecture with over 1 million correlators and separate acquisition and tracking engines, capable of massively parallel searches. Combined with u-blox' AssistNow A-GPS service, the u-blox 5 chip and module generation acquires satellites in less than one second.
The LEA-5 GPS module series is lead-free and has an industrial temperature range of -40 to +85°C. Its small form factor and SMT pads allow for fully automatic assembly processes with standard pick-and-place equipment and reflow soldering, enabling cost-efficient, high-volume production.
The LEA-5H module comes with a Flash EPROM that enables easy firmware upgrades and configuration saving options. The ROM-based LEA-5S offers further cost efficiencies. Both modules feature u-blox' OMA SUPL compliant A-GPS interface and support AssistNow Online and AssistNow Offline A-GPS services.
