The M10578-A2 module operates with GPS, with an update rate ranging from 1 to 5Hz. Meanwhile, the M10578-A3 operates with GPS, GLONASS, BEIDOU and Gallileo, updating at rates of up to 10Hz. Both measure 9 x 9 x 1.8mm and feature a MediaTek processor.
Performance is said tohave been enhanced through an internal self-generated orbit prediction feature, whereby two GNSS systems are accessed simultaneously to give a faster time to fix. A second low noise amplifier boosts low powered satellite signals.
The modules are built on FR4 substrates, with a high density, multi layered design placing critical RF functions in the best position for location finding and performance.
