Fastrax has added to its uPatch family of ultra-compact receiver modules with an integrated high-performance patch antenna.

Based on the Sony CXD2951 chipset, all uPatch receiver modules offer a high navigation performance in a compact design. The receivers are suitable for navigation and recreational devices as well as GPS mouse type applications.

The RoHS-compliant uPatch100-S expands the Fastrax range of GPS receivers based on Sony GPS chipsets. It is an ultra-small OEM GPS receiver with a built-in antenna for NMEA-only applications.

Typical hot start time to first fix (TTFF) is 3 s, while signal acquisition and tracking circuitry enable reliable navigation with weak signals and in difficult conditions.

uPatch 101 offers all the features of other Fastrax OEM GPS modules, while providing additional options for product design through an integrated battery backup capacitor for low-power modes.

The 102 is an RoHS-compliant upgrade to the previous-generation uPatch100 receiver module. It features two additional I/O pins for baud rate selection, providing an interface that is otherwise identical to the uPatch100.
