Introduction
The TW5210 is an integrated GPS receiver/antennas designed for use in professional
grade applications such as vehicle tracking.
It features the STMicroelectronics STA8058 Teseo™ WAAS, EGNOS and MSAS enabled
GPS receiver IC, a high performance low noise amplifier stage, a tight out-of-band SAW
filter to reject interference, and a perfectly tuned antenna element for maximum GPS
signal reception, even in dense urban-canyon environments where multipath
interference is prevalent.
The TW5210 is available with brick-wall filter option to eliminate possible interference
from Lightsquared transmissions.

The TW5210 is housed in a compact, industrial-grade weather-proof, magnet mount
enclosure, with a NMEA 0183 standard output via a RS232 or CMOS interface on flying
leads, or a USB connector.
A GPS position fix is obtained in less than 39 seconds from a cold start, and recovery
from temporary blockage of GPS signal is typically less than 1 second.
The TW5210 periodically stores the last know position in non-volatile memory to
maintain position information across power cycles.
