THE CHALLENGES OF INTEGRATING A

nnnn

GPS RECEIVER AND ANTENNA

nnnn

Integrating a GPS receiver and

nnnn

antenna in a tough electrical

nnnn

environment is a complex RF design

nnnn

problem. Tight space constraints often

nnnn

place the GPS antenna near strong

nnnn

transmitters, noisy power supplies

nnnn

and fast microprocessors. Getting it

nnnn

right often takes multiple expensive

nnnn

iterations and, in the end, engineers

nnnn

are frequently forced to compromise

nnnn

performance for time-to-market

nnnn

considerations.

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF TRIMBLE'S 30+

nnnn

YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

nnnn

Trimble has been integrating GPS

nnnn

receivers and antennas in all types

nnnn

of devices for over 30 years and

nnnn

can help you bring your product to

nnnn

market faster.

nnnn

Trimble's integrated antenna and GPS

nnnn

receiver product, Zelia, is comprised of

nnnn

a GPS receiver and antenna element

nnnn

on an easily integrated module.

nnnn

INTEGRATED MONOPOLE ANTENNA

nnnn

Zelia includes a linearly-polarized

nnnn

printed monopole antenna element.

nnnn

It is an omni-directional antenna ideal

nnnn

for portable device applications.

nnnn

The printed monopole takes up less

nnnn

space than a patch antenna, giving

nnnn

Zelia a smaller size overall.

nnnn

With this antenna design, Zelia can

nnnn

be installed either perpendicular to

nnnn

the ground plane or off the edge of

nnnn

the PCB, which means an even smaller

nnnn

footprint on the PCB.

ZELIA INTEGRATES ANTENNA,

nnnn

GPS RECEIVER, RTC AND LNA

nnnn

The integrated antenna element

nnnn

is paired with the Condor C1011

nnnn

GPS Receiver. The C1011 provides

nnnn

NMEA input and output, and PPS

nnnn

timing output.

nnnn

The C1011 is the most compact

nnnn

Condor receiver. Built with the

nnnn

best components and the highest

nnnn

production quality standards,

nnnn

it delivers top tier positioning

nnnn

performance, accuracy, and sensitivity

nnnn

in signal acquisition and tracking.

nnnn

Zelia also provides an internal 32 kHz

nnnn

crystal for Real Time Clock (RTC) and

nnnn

an internal Low Noise Amplifier (LNA).

nnnn

ZELIA FITS PROJECTS ON THE GO

nnnn

Zelia fits just right for performance-

nnnn

dependent applications that are

nnnn

space constrained and time and

nnnn

cost sensitive.

nnnn

Zelia has an omni-directional antenna

nnnn

perfect for portability, an integrated

nnnn

GPS receiver module that delivers

nnnn

quality positioning performance, and

nnnn

a small footprint.
