Fastrax Introduces Three New GPS Receivers

Fastrax Ltd. (Finland) has announced the latest additions to its iTrax and uPatch product families. The new iTrax310 GPS receiver module is based on the ultra-sensitive SiRFstarIII (GSC3f/LP) chipsets and with 8Mbit internal flash memory.

The iTrax310 OEM GPS receiver provides the high performance levels of the iTrax300, including low acquisition sensitivity (-143dBm), navigation sensitivity (-158dBm) and power consumption (110mW at 3.0V), but with a 30% smaller form factor.

 

The new uPatch300 is a small GPS receiver module with an integrated and already optimised patch antenna element. Based on the Sirf Star (GSC3e/LP) chipset, the uPatch300 includes an 8-pin system connector and a UFL antenna connector for an optional external antenna.

 

The new uPatch130 GPS receiver has also an already integrated and optimised patch antenna and the same form factor and connectors as uPatch300, but is based on the Sony CXD2985 single chip. Being programmable with iSuite 3 SDK, the uPatch 130 facilitates customer cost savings by enabling the programming of applications on the existing ARM 7 core.

 

The new iTrax310 and uPatch300 samples will be available in July 2007. Samples of the uPatch130 will be available in August 2007.
