TIM-LF

OEM GPS Module

ANTARIS® Positioning Engine

 TIM-LF GPS Module For new designs, we recommend
the TIM-4P or TIM-4H instead.

Overview

The TIM-LF is an ultra-low power OEM GPS module suitable for active antennas. It provides two 3V (5V TTL input compatible) serial ports, SPI and configurable 1.8V I/O ports. The TIM-LF provides system resources for user application software. The combination of high performance, maximum flexibility, and innovative packaging technology makes the TIM-LF suitable for high-volume applications requiring cost-effective and tight system integration.

The leading ANTARIS® GPS Engine provides excellent navigation performance under dynamic conditions in areas with limited sky view like urban canyons, high sensitivity for weak signal operation without compromising accuracy, and support of DGPS and multiple SBAS systems like WAAS and EGNOS. The 16 parallel channels and 8192 search bins provide fast start-up times. The aiding functionality accelerates start-up times even further. The low power consumption and FixNow™ power saving mode make this product suitable for handheld and battery-operated devices.
