Development platform aids GPS integration
The Nemerix EK 2040 is an ARM9-based development platform that helps customers incorporate Nemerix's chipsets and software solutions into their own products.
Its performance is enhanced by Nemerix's 42-channel architecture, which delivers world-class GPS time-to-first-fix times in cold start mode.
Powered by Nemerix technology, the Transystem i-Blue GPS receiver consumes 40% less power than other wireless GPS receivers, and extends its operating time for more than 27 hours.
The i-Blue 727 model features the Nemerix NJ2020 hosted GPS baseband processor, which combines unmatched power, performance and accuracy, with one of the industry's smallest form factors, which uses the memory and processor resources already available on the host platform of the wireless i-Blue receiver.
As a result, the i-Blue GPS receiver is one of the highest performing, consumer-graded GPS receivers in the market today.

"Nemerix has built its reputation by providing the GPS industry's smallest and most efficient chipsets, and we're thrilled to continue our previous work with Transystem by powering their i-Blue offerings".
"We've selected the Nemerix baseband processors for a number of reasons, including performance; minimal power requirements; the ease with which they can be integrated into the i-Blue family, and ultimately, because of the overall value they provide", said Casber Hsiao, Director of Sales and Marketing for Transystem.
"By leveraging Nemerix's innovative technology, we're able to deliver the industry's best-performing GPS receivers to our customers".
