Design considerations
For a minimal design with a u-blox 5 GPS module the following functions and pins need to be considered:
Connect the Power supply to
VCC.
VDDUSB
8
:
Connect the USB power supply to a LDO before feeding it to
VDDUSB
and
VCC
. Or connect to
GND if USB is not used.
Assure a optimal ground connection to all ground pins of the module
Connect the antenna to
RF_IN
over a matching 50 Ohm micro strip and define the antenna supply
(
V_ANT
)
9
for active antennas (internal or external power supply)
Choose the required serial communication interface (UART, USB
or DDC
) and connect the appropriate pins
to your application
If you need Hot- or Warmstart in your application, connect a backup battery to
V_BCKP
Decide whether
TIMEPULSE
or
RESET_N
10
options are required in your application and connect the
appropriate pins on your module
