Pack gets to grip with GPS receiver module
The TDC GPS9543 starter pack allows fast out-of-the-box evaluation of the Leadtek 9543 GPS receiver.
Weighing only 5.5g and with dimensions of 35 x 32.5 x 2.95mm, this enables integrators to have the highest degree of flexibility possible when integrating voice and data communication in their own products.
Consequently, the modules are ideally suited for mass-produced consumer goods including mobile phones, smart phones, PDAs and other portable devices.
Together, the MC55 and MC56 cover all of the GSM/GPRS networks enabling product development for the global market.
The MC55 supports frequencies commonly used in Europe and Asia - 900, 1800 and 1900MHz - whereas the MC56 supports 850, 1800 and 1900MHz - and so is particularly suited to the North American market.
The new modules are designed for Microsoft Windows Mobile-based devices (smartphones and pocket PCs), also suitable for use as embedded GSM/GPRS modems in their own right.
RIL/MUX software will be available upon request with the modules.
Jerry Sandys, Managing Director of TDC comments, "These super small GPRS modules open up global opportunities for integrators".
