A very sensitive AND low-cost GPS module? Say it ain't so! These little modules are great for those interested in toying around with GPS with any microcontroller or microcontroller-based board, like an Arduino. Serial communication and NMEA compliance means it is easy to communicate with--and, if you do run into issues, there is plenty of free sample code available!
The SkyNav SKM53 Series with embedded GPS antenna enables high performance navigation in the most stringent applications and solid fix even in harsh GPS visibility environments.
It is based on the high performance features of the MediaTek 3329 single-chip architecture, Its –165dBm tracking sensitivity extends positioning coverage into place like urban canyons and dense foliage environment where the GPS was not possible before. The 6-pin UART connector design is the easiest and convenient solution to be embedded in a portable device and receiver like PND, GPS mouse, car holder, personal locator, speed camera detector and vehicle locator.
