1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The GPS Evaluation Kit EVA1080 allows an easy evaluation of Vincotech’s GPS
receiver module A1080-A by offering quick access to the ports of the module.
The EVA1080 serves three major purposes:
A Supercap is used to continue RTC operation during power off periods. The
firmware provided on the A1080-A delivered with the EVA1080 is identical to the
standard firmware delivered on single A1080 GPS receiver modules.
1.2 Contents
The EVA1080 includes the following components:
Please check your package for completeness and connect the components prop-
erly.
1. As a demonstration package of the module’s capabilities
Powering the module via the USB connector and connecting the GPS antenna
with sufficient view to the sky will result in an NMEA output with position infor-
mation.
2. As an example how to integrate the module into a system
The schematic in chapter “10 Board schematics” is a basic example how to in-
tegrate the GPS module into an application or system.
3. To support an easy temporally design in
The signals provided on the Evaluation Kit allow direct integration into a sur-
rounding system and is therefore an ideal development tool.
