Brief Introduction
The
mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver is a compact-size, high performance
Bluetooth GPS receiver with elegant mechanical design. The core of
this elegant device is the SONY CXD 2951 GPS receiver IC and the ST
Micro 2415/2150 Bluetooth chipset. The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver
sports a high sensitivity of –152 dBm during tracking and –139 dBm
during acquisition. The average TTFF (time to first fix) is 2 ~ 3 sec.
in hot start mode, 30 sec. in warm start mode and 40 sec. in cold
start mode. This excellent performance really makes the mini-Bluetooth
GPS receiver stand out. The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver is a class 2
Bluetooth device, with range of 10 meters. It supports v1.1 Bluetooth
Serial Port Profile, which ensures compatibility with all devices such
as PDAs and smart phones which also support the SPP Bluetooth Profile.
There are three LED indicators on the mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver – a
green (GPS) LED, a blue (Bluetooth) LED, and a red (power status) LED.
The green LED will be lit when the GPS receiver is in acquisition
mode, and will start blinking every 2 seconds when the GPS position is
fixed (i.e., tracking mode). The blue LED will be blinking every 2
seconds when the Bluetooth is in connection and be blinking every 8
seconds if the Bluetooth connection between the host and
mini-Bluetooth GPS is lost. The red LED will be blinking to indicate
the battery power level is low, on when charging the battery and off
if the battery is fully charged. The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver
incorporates an intelligent power management scheme so that the GPS is
turned off if before the Bluetooth connection is established, or when
the Bluetooth connection is lost. Together with the large capacity
rechargeable battery, the operating time of the mini-Bluetooth GPS
receiver is much longer than most of the Bluetooth GPS receivers
currently on the market.
Features
The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver, based on AGP108
Bluetooth GPS module with built-in rechargeable, removable lithium-ion
battery has many smart and useful features. Without any wiring
requirement, mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver adds GPS positioning
capability to any Bluetooth (SPP profile) enabled device.
