1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The GPS Evaluation Kit EVA1035-H allows an easy evaluation of Maestro’s GPS
receiver /smart antenna module A1035-H by offering quick access to the ports of the
module.
The EVA1035-H serves three major purposes:
• As a demonstration package of the module’s capabilities
• As an example how to integrate the module into a system
• To support an easy temporary design in
The EVA1035-H can especially demonstrate that the on-module GPS antenna and
an external active GPS antenna connected to the External Antenna input will result in
outstanding GPS performance. The user can switch between the two antennas with
the ANT_SW signal provided by the DIP switch.
A Supercap is used to continue RTC operation and to back-up SRAM during power
off periods. The firmware provided on the A1035-H delivered with the EVA1035-H is
identical to the standard firmware delivered on single A1035-H GPS receiver
modules.
1.2 Contents
The EVA1035-H includes the following components:
Please check your package for completeness and connect the components properly.
2 Handling Precautions
The EVA1035-H contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Please handle with appropriate care.
Powering the A1035-H GPS receiver module via the USB connector with
sufficient view to the sky (or using an external active antenna with sufficient view
to the sky) will result in an NMEA output with position information.
The schematic in chapter “10 Board Schematics” is a basic example of how to
integrate the GPS module into an application or system.
The signals provided on the Evaluation Kit allow direct integration into a
surrounding system making it an ideal development tool.
