GPS140 Datasheet, PDF (9/38 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – GPS Positioning Module

16C550 compatible UART
Communication to the GPS receiver module is performed through a standard UART
channel. This onboard serial port leaves the other system serial ports free for the
user. All operating systems will recognize and support this 16C550 standard UART,
and therefore no special communication drivers are needed to receive data from
your GPS receiver. The address and interrupt of your serial channel can be changed
with the onboard jumpers.
I/O interfaces
The GPS140HR can be controlled and monitored from the software through the
dedicated serial port of the module. A special I/O connector is available for the user
to connect to the GPS 1 PPS time mark as well as a precise 10KHz timing clock
signal. Also the active antenna supply of +12V can be fed through the I/O connector.
Mechanical description
The GPS140HR is designed on a PC/104 form factor. An easy mechanical interface
to both PC/104 and RTD IDAN systems can be achieved. Stack your GPS140HR
directly on a PC/104 compatible CPU module using the onboard mounting holes and
standoffs.
Connector description
The GPS receiver antenna interface is an OSX type miniature coaxial connector.
Connect your antenna directly to the GPS140HR antenna connector, or use a short
cable inside your enclosure to connect to a feed through connector to allow
connection of the antenna to the wall of your enclosure. All I/O connections are made
using header type terminals.
