Module GPS v2.1

SKU:M003-V21

Description

Module GPS v2.1 is a high-performance GNSS global positioning module that integrates the AT6668 high-performance chip to provide accurate and reliable satellite positioning services. The module supports multi-frequency and multi-mode GNSS signal reception and is compatible with multiple satellite navigation systems, including GPS, BD2, BD3, GLONASS, GALILEO, and QZSS. It enables high-precision multi-system joint positioning or single-system independent positioning with excellent anti-interference capabilities. In weak signal areas, it can quickly obtain higher-precision location information.
The module comes standard with an external SMA antenna. In addition, it features a DIP switch that allows flexible switching of TX/RX communication pins, and precise time synchronization via PPS signal output. It is suitable for high-precision positioning applications such as in-vehicle navigation, IoT positioning devices, remote monitoring, smart cities, home, and industrial automation. Compared with the previous Module GPS v2.0, this product has optimized interface compatibility to support CoreMP135, and the UART pin options have been increased from four to five.

DIP Switch Pin Notes
When used with the Basic host, at startup the G12 pin acts as a Strapping pin and must be set low; do not switch it to the ON position, otherwise it will not start normally. After startup, it can be reconfigured and switched to ON. The G25 pin outputs the PPS signal, while the speaker uses it as an input, causing a function conflict — only one can be used at a time.
When used with Core2, the G2 pin is shared with the speaker, so only one function can be used at a time.
