GPS/GNSS Modules

GPS Receiver Module Model GN-8421 Discontinued Products

GN-8421 is a low-cost, high-sensitivity, complete GPS/A-GPS receiver module that combines a hardware measurement platform with eRide powerful navigation software integrated onto an embedded 32-bit RISC microprocessor.

GN-8421 is ideal for a wide range of applications where performance, time to market and ease of integration are prime considerations. It includes two SAW filters for high performance when integrated with wireless communications, and has advanced features for use in car navigation devices and fleet management.

GN-8421 is based on OPUS III technology and includes the eRideOPUS IIIez BB IC and the Prelude III RF Receiver IC, a TCXO, two SAW filters and various matching and peripheral components in a small form factor. It is your complete GPS/AGPS solution with only an external GPS antenna and power supply required
