1.0 Introduction
Navman’s Jupiter 30 xLP extra low power receiver module offers the ultimate in high sensitivity
GPS performance and low power consumption, capable of both autonomous and aided modes
of operation.
The Jupiter 30 xLP acquires GPS position faster under low signal conditions than all previous
Jupiter receiver modules and can continue tracking in areas of dense foliage, built-up inner city
environments and even indoors.
The module provides a 20-channel receiver that continuously tracks all satellites in view and
provides accurate positioning data.
2.0 Technical description
Navman has enhanced the architecture of the SiRF GSC3e LPx chipset by adding carefully
selected key components including TCXO, LNA and Flash. This ensures frequency stability,
improved sensitivity at low level signals of better than –159 dBm, lower power consumption
and a faster TTFF (Time To First Fix). The GSC3e LPx chip integrates both baseband and RF
sections, thereby reducing power consumption.
By providing separate on-board regulators, the Jupiter 30 xLP allows operation over a wide input
voltage range, down to 3.0 VDC. This gives OEMs the ability to design with a single voltage
supply that consumes less power.
The 20-channel architecture with more than 200 000 effective correlators provides rapid TTFF
under all start-up conditions. Acquisition is guaranteed under all conditions due to higher
sensitivity and the ability to use multi-mode aiding.
Protocols supported are selected NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) data
messages and SiRF Binary.
2.1 Product applications
The Jupiter 30 xLP is designed specifically for applications where rapid TTFF and operation
under low signal levels are primary requirements. The module offers high performance and
maximum flexibility in a wide range of OEM configurations.
The high sensitivity of the module makes it ideal for:

The Jupiter 30 xLP is the successor to the established Jupiter 20, sharing the same form
factor (25.4 x 25.4 mm) and electrical compatibility. This provides a low risk migration path for
existing users requiring greater sensitivity, lower power consumption and a faster fix.
