General Description
The PCM-GPS from WinSystems is a PC/104 module incorporating the Lassen IQ
12-channel parallel tracking GPS receiver from Trimble®. The GPS receiver is interfaced to an
on-board 16550 compatible DUART which receives the serial data sent by the GPS module.
The data output as supplied by the factory is in TSIP format making it compatible with all offthe-shelf mapping, navigation, and geocaching application software. Supplied C source code
assists the integrator in creating custom applications utilizing the PCM-GPS. The PCM-GPS also
supports the Trimble receiver’s high precision Pulse Per Second (PPS) output for use in critical
time keeping or synchronizing applications. The PCM-GPS also supports the CDMA and GPRS/
GSM cellular SocketModems® from Multi-Tech Systems®. These modems, when combined with
the GPS positioning data, can provide a “phone home” function to report its current location.

I/O Address Selection
The PCM-GPS requires eight consecutive I/O addresses beginning on an 8-byte
boundary for each of the two on-board serial channels. The jumper blocks at J4 and
J7 allow selection of the primary (GPS) and secondary serial (SocketModem®) port
I/O addresses respectively. Address selection is made by placing a jumper on the
jumper pair for the address bit, if a 0 is desired or leaving the jumper pair open if a
1 is required for the desired address. The illustration below shows the relationship
between the address bits and the jumper position and a sample jumpering for an
address of 300H.

To disable a port, place a jumper on all 7 positions 9Address = 000H.
Interrupt Routing
The PCM-GPS can source up to three unique on-board interrupts. Two are available for
each of the serial interfaces and a third for the Pulse Per Second (PPS) interrupt from
the GPS. The jumper blocks at J8, J9, and J10 allow for routing of the interrupts for
the SocketModem®, the GPS serial output, and the PPS source respectively.
To route an interrupt to a source, place a jumper at the desired IRQ position. Unused
sources should be left unjumpered. Each source must have its own unique interrupt.

On-board PPS Usage
Visual
Index
Visual
Index
Visual
Index
The GPS receiver generates a 4 µs wide positive pulse every second with the leading
edge synchronized to UTC time within ±95 nanoseconds when valid position xes are
being reported. WinSystems’ on-board implementation degrades this accuracy by
buffering the PPS output using a 74HCT14 Schmitt trigger device which also inverts the
signal. Since PC interrupts are edge-triggered on the rising edge, the actual interrupt
will occur 4 µs plus the inverter propagation time later (typical 17 ns). This added delay
is actually insignicant to any software synchronizing routines as the entire hardware
interrupt acknowledgment process will consume many additional microseconds in a bestcase scenario. The PPS signal begins immediately at power-up and continues even if the
receiver loses GPS lock. The drift of the signal without GPS lock is unspecied.
External PPS Usage
The PPS signal, in addition to being available on-board for interrupt generation, is also
terminated at two polarities on the J2 connector. The negative pulsed output at pin 2 of
J2 is driven by a 74HCT14 inverter with a typical propagation delay of 17 ns.
The positive signal is available on pin 3 of J2 and is double-buffered by the same type
device for a typical delay of 34 ns. Either of these signals can be used by external
hardware for time synchronization purposes.

GPS Almanac Battery
The PCM-GPS is shipped with a 350 mAH 3.5V Lithium battery. This battery is used to
retain GPS Almanac and Ephemeris data which provides for a greatly improved time
to position x from power-up. With the battery available, and valid Almanac data, the
time for a valid x is reduced from under 2 minutes to under 20 seconds. The Trimble®
published current draw on the battery backup line is 19 µA typical at 25ºC. Alternately, an
external battery may be connected between Pin 1 (+) and Pin 4 (-) of J2. An externally
connected battery should be rated at 3.5V ±.2V. The jumper block at J5 is used to select
the GPS backup battery source as shown below. The jumper may be removed or moved
to the external position for long-term storage of boards for battery preservation.

GPS Antenna
The PCM-GPS requires an external outdoor antenna with a clear view of the sky in order
to receive and track satellites in the GPS constellation. J1 is a standard SMA connector for
attachment of the antenna. It must be an active antenna powered by the 3.3V supplied by
the GPS and with a typical gain of 28 dB. WinSystems offers an optional magnetic mount
antenna P/N ANTENNA-MAGNETIC built by Trimble® for this module. Other antennas
meeting the above specications should work as well.

PCM-GPS Programming Reference
Software Interface 3
The serial port driver in the iQ_CHAT Tool Kit matches the Lassen iQ
GPS receiver serial port characteristics. The TSIPPRNT program
converts binary data logged with the iQ_CHAT program into text that
may be printed and displayed. Both of these tools are included in the
Software Developer’s Toolkit.
Warning – When using the TSIP protocol to change port assignments or
settings, confirm that your changes do not affect the ability to
communicate with the receiver (e.g., selecting the PC COM port settings
that do not match the receiver’s, or changing the output protocol to TSIP
while not using iQ_CHAT).
Introduction
The software standard for commercial GPS receivers is TSIP format (www.trimble.com). The
Trimble Lassen® IQ GPS module is also capable of transmitting and receiving serial data in a
Trimble proprietary format known as TSIP. This is a binary protocol which ordinarily runs at
9600 baud, an 8-bit word, and odd parity. PCM-GPS boards as shipped, default to this TSIP
standard.
The Trimble Lassen® IQ GPS module is also capable of transmitting and receiving serial data
in NMEA 0183 format. This is a simple ASCII, serial communications protocol that denes how
data is transmitted. Users requiring a NMEA interface to the GPS should see the Software
Drivers & Examples section of this manual or contact WinSystems Technical Support for details
on converting the PCM-GPS to NMEA.
TSIP Software Interface
091110 OPERATIONS MANUAL PCM-GPS 6
Software Interface 3
3.2 Communicating with the Lassen iQ GPS Receiver
The Lassen iQ GPS Receiver supports three message protocols: TSIP,
TAIP, and NMEA. Communication with the module is through two
CMOS compatible, TTL level serial ports. The port characteristics can
be modified to accommodate your application requirements. Port
parameters can be stored in non-volatile memory (FLASH) which
does not require backup power. Table 3.1. lists the default port
characteristics.
3.2.1 Software Tools
The Software Tools provided on the Starter Kit CD-ROM include both
user friendly Windows and DOS applications to facilitate
communication with the receiver, via the Trimble Standard Interface
Protocol (TSIP). This CD also includes sample C source code and
reusable routines to aid in developing applications.
Note – The TSIP, TAIP, and NMEA protocols are discussed beginning
on page 42 of this chapter, and in the Appendices of this document.

while not using iQ_CHAT).
Software Interface 3
3.3.2 TSIP Data Output Modes
TSIP is the default protocol for Port 1 on the Lassen iQ GPS receiver.
This binary language offers users a wide variety of commands and
reports. TSIP enables the Lassen iQ GPS receiver to operate in two
data output modes, both available during operation. In Query Mode,
packet data is returned in response to input query packets. In
Automatic Mode, a selected group of data packets is output
continuously at two fixed rates – every second and every five seconds.
The format and ensemble of the automatic output packets is
configured using packets 0x35, 0x70, and 0x8E-20 (see Appendix A
for packet details). Packet settings are stored in BBRAM. They can
also be saved in non-volatile memory (Flash) using command packet
0x8E-26. See Appendix A for additional information on Flash storage
for custom operation.
3.3.3 Default TSIP Output Settings
