The GlobalTop Technology FGPMMOPA6B is the world’s smallest (16mm x 16mm), single-chip, complete solution, GPS Module Engine Board with a finely tuned, high-sensitivity Patch on Top (POT) ceramic antenna utilizing SmartAntenna Structure. This tiny GPS module is an ideal solution for those who want to incorporate GPS receiver functions into their own design without worrying about RF noise interference or any additional antenna fine tuning adjustment. Because of its high sensitivity, it is able to excel in tracking performances under urban landscapes or other environments where GPS signals can be difficult to acquire. FGPMMOPA6B’s design is powered by MediaTek Inc. (MTK) 66 channels single chip architecture, the leading digital fabless semiconductor company for wireless communications and digital media solutions. This GPS module engine board has an extraordinary compact design with excellent tracking performances, accurate positioning and highest of sensitivity. Because of its size and SMD type design, it is ideal for use in small-form factor device design and can be integrated easily with maximum degree of flexibility. It is the best choice for any system designer who wishes to simplify GPS system integration process of their own electronic design.
