Grove - GPS (Air530)

Are you confused about your GPS not working well in urban areas? Then you should not miss our new Air530 GPS! It’s a high-performance, multi-mode satellite positioning and navigation module to use with Arduino. It supports GPS / Beidou / Glonass / Galileo / QZSS and SBAS, which makes it suitable for GNSS positioning applications, such as car navigation, smart wear, and drones. This module is capable of receiving more than 6 satellites at the same time, and is able to work with a bad signal.

Features

• High precision Positioning: Positioning error within 10 meters, and will still be accurate with a bad signal
• The Integrated Design of RF Baseband: Adopt the integrated design of RF baseband, which integrates DC/DC, LDO, LNA, RF front-end, baseband processing, 32-bit RISC based chip, RAM, FLASH storage, RTC, and power management functions
• Low Power Consumption: Low power consumption at only 31uA
• High Compatibility: Compatible hard/soft interface for other modules
• Product number: Seeed 109020022
