PA1010D GPS Breakout

• Let your project know its place in the world with this tiny but ultra-sensitive global positioning breakout!
• PA1010D GPS / GLONASS / GALILEO receiver module with inbuilt ceramic antennaramic antenna
• Supports up to 210 PRN channels with 99 search channels and 33 simultaneous tracking channels
• Super capacitor, which saves satellite locations and status in the event of a power down. It also lets the GPS module run its internal clock, with about 1 hour of 'battery capacity'.
• Compatible with Arduino and all models of Raspberry Pi

This I2C breakout houses a PA1010D GPS receiver module with inbuilt ceramic antenna, which will let you extract date and time, latitude, longitude, speed and altitude data from satellites. We've supplemented this with a supercapacitor, which acts like a short term backup battery for your GPS data, enabling the module to lock back onto signals much more quickly after a power down. There's also an indicator LED, which will flash whenever the module has a satellite fix. You could hook one of these up to a weather station or other measuring device to give your data really accurate time, date and location stamps - or go a step further and team it with one of our display breakouts to build your own modular GPS navigation system. (Please don't rely on this breakout as your sole navigation device at sea or in the wilderness!) These GPS modules work best when they have an uninterrupted view of the sky. If it's taking a long time to get a satellite fix, try taking it outside or pointing the antenna upwards or towards a window.
