The Leadtek LR9548S GPS module is a high sensitivity, low power, Surface Mount Device (SMD).
This 20-channel global positioning system (GPS) receiver is designed for a wide range of OEM
applications and is based on the GPS signal search capabilities of the SiRFstarIII™ single chip
architecture, SiRF’s newest chipset technology. The LR9548S is also pin-to-pin compatible with the
LR9805-III (LR9548) for easier and faster transition.
The LR9548S is designed to allow quick and easy integration into GPS-related applications such as:
PDA, Pocket PC, and other computing devices Car and Marine Navigation Fleet Management /Asset Tracking AVL and Location-Based Services Hand-Held Device for Personal Positioning and Navigation
Features
Hardware and Software
Based on the high performance features of the SiRFstarIII single chip Compact module size for easy integration: 24x20x2.9 mm (0.94x0.79x0.11 in). Fully automatic assembly: reflow solder assembly ready Hardware compatible with SiRF GSW3.2.0 software Multiple I/O pins reserved for customizing special user applications RoHS compliance
