GNSS timing receiver

13 June 2012 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

New from Trimble is an embedded global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver with GPS and GLONASS capabilities for timing applications.

With advancements in performance, ease of integration and software flexibility, the Resolution-SMT GG receiver enables system integrators to add precise GNSS to provide location, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and synchronisation to their products.

In addition to GPS and GLONASS, the device also supports Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) and the Asian Pacific Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS).

Precise timing and synchronisation are vital to today’s wireless infrastructure to efficiently control the flow of network information data and maximise the use of bandwidth. The new receiver provides a highly accurate and reliable GNSS timing source for the telecommunications, broadcast synchronisation, power transmission and wireless industries.

The Resolution-SMT GG is a complete, ready-to-go timing receiver in a 19 x 19 x 2,5 mm shielded module. The single-sided receiver is packaged in tape and reel for pick-and-place manufacturing processes. It features a reflow-solderable edge castellation interface so the module can be incorporated in a product design without costly I/O and RF connectors. The modular design also allows for reduced integration time and low implementation risk.

The device features automatic self-survey to ensure accurate reference position for improved timing accuracy, as well as an over-determined timing mode to provide an extremely accurate 1 PPS synchronised to GPS/UTC within 15 nanoseconds (one sigma). Timing receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (T-RAIM) assures high PPS integrity in over-determined timing mode.

The Resolution-SMT GG starter kit provides everything a designer needs to begin adding the GNSS timing capability into an application.
