Cambridge, UK based Antenova Ltd. has become a SiRF certified developer and value-added manufacturer (VAM). In addition, the company has unveiled a compact planar GPS RF antenna module incorporating the SiRFstarIII GPS chipset and its high performing patented antenna technology.
Greg McCray, CEO of Antenova said, “Our ongoing collaboration with SiRF has resulted in market leading GPS RADIONOVA RF antenna modules that offer the highest degree of integration and optimized performance required for the new generation of GPS enabled mobile handsets and wireless consumer devices. The M10264 is a highly integrated GPS RF antenna module suitable for L1-band GPS and A-GPS systems. The device combines a SiRF GSC3LT GPS receiver IC with Antenova’s high efficiency antenna technology and is designed for a low profile planar mounting. All front-end components are contained in a 29 x 13 x 4.7 mm single package laminate base module providing a complete GPS receiver for optimum performance. M10264 operates on a single 3.6 V positive bias supply with low power consumption and available low power modes for further power savings. It is supported by SiRF stand alone software and uses a UART as the host processor interface. And incorporates an antenna switch with built-in current sensing for optional active antenna connection.
