JP15

JP15 - High sensitivity 12 channel GPS receiver

The FALCOM JP15

is an excellent device designed for a wide variety of system solutions and offers an easy integration in various ways on the user application platform. The JP15 family based on a 0.13 micron CMOS process of the SiRFstarIIx-GSC2x-architecture is a single-board solution.
The SiRFstarIIx architecture is a suitable combination of small size, low power and cost-effectiveness, it consumes one third the power and is literally half the size of its predecessor, SiRFstarIIe/ LP GPS chipset.
The full power operation is also dramatically reduced from 220 mWon the JP7-T family (based on the SiRFstarIIe/LP) to 100 mW on the JP15 family (based on the SiRFstarIIx) and TricklePower is reduced from 80 mW to 30 mW.


The internal software is highly flexible, allowing the use of a variety of configurations from blinking LEDs, varying baud rates and protocols. The JP15 family concept builds a perfect basis for the design of high-sensitive, low power, compact and cost efficient state-of-the-art GPS enabled system solutions.
