The Ultimate SiRFstarIII Module

With the A1084 modules Maestro Wireless Solutions launches its most sophisticated SiRFstarIII-based GPS receivers. The modules feature not only a very low power consumption - a must in many systems today - but have a focus on a seamless integration into GPS applications, such as portable devices or telematics units. Here, a built-in antenna, mostly a passive one is preferred , is number one requirement. The answer is the A1084-B, the basic version, which supports both passive and active antennas. Quite often, an external antenna connector is desired for GPS performance, reliability, or security reasons. This is where the A1084-A comes in handy. The module holds a second antenna pin and an antenna switch allowing the application to selected between the two inputs. The very compact SiRFStarIII GPS receiver modules come completely shielded with a lid and with benchmark-setting GPS performance on a very small footprint.

Both A1084 products cover the complete industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C - one more feature that makes it easy to vote for the A1084's.
