Navman Wireless OEM Solutions, a designer and manufacturer of global positioning system (GPS) technology, announced that its latest low-power, small form factor Jupiter 32 xLP GPS module is now available in production quantities.
Featuring the new 65 nm SiRFstarIII GSC3e(f)/LPx chipset and providing up to 30% greater power savings than previous designs, the new module is ideally suited to GPS solution for devices where size matters.
Delivering high accuracy and fast position fixes, the device integrates SiRFstarIII GSW 3.2.4 firmware code and unique Navman software features including Write-to-Flash for easy configuration storage and retrieval, Ephemeris Push for rapid satellite acquisitions and starts, and user selectable profiles to maximise operation in even the smallest products. Firmware features incorporate rapid time-to-first-fix in urban environments, high navigation sensitivity and stability, and quick transient condition response and jamming mitigation.
Compatible with its predecessor, the Jupiter 32, the Jupiter 32 xLP is a small GPS receiver sporting a 17 x 15 x 2,7 mm form factor and weighing just 2 grams. Key features include fully sealed EMI edge shielding, a high sensitivity GPS receiver with an optimised RF front-end, proprietary shaped filtering to reduce noise, multipath mitigation for track re-centring and jammer elimination, and dynamic search control to adapt to severe environments.
The device can be further optimised with user selectable navigation modes via a simple ASCII command that can be stored in Flash memory. These navigation modes allow the selection of general use, automotive, pedestrian and optimised low power modes to suit any application. For more specific requirements, additional configuration of these settings is possible.
