ATOMIC GPS Base
Atomic GPS Base is a GPS positioning module specifically designed for the ATOM series main controller. It incorporates the M8030-KT positioning navigation chip and is equipped with built-in FLASH memory. The module also includes a button cell battery that supports power-off retention of user configurations. The module finds applications in various scenarios, such as geographic coordinate viewing, bus stop announcements, vehicle and marine navigation, and trajectory tracking. It provides accurate positioning information that can be utilized in these applications.
Atomic GPS Base outputs data in the NMEA-0183 protocol, which is a common standard for GPS data communication. It supports multiple satellite systems, including GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BDS, SBAS, and QZSS. With a 72-channel search capability, it can accurately acquire and track satellite signals for precise positioning.
Furthermore, the Atomic GPS Base includes a MicroSD card slot located below the GPS module. This slot allows people to read GPS or other file data from a MicroSD card. For example, you can export GPS data in a specific format to view movement trajectories in map software. The module can also function as a regular card reader, enabling file reading and writing operations.
Regarding the UART parameter settings, the recommended settings for communication with the Atomic GPS Base are as follows:
UART Parameter Settings:
- Baud Rate (9600bps)
- Start Bit (1 bit)
- Stop Bit (1 bit)
- Parity Bit (None)
