GPS Shield With Antenna

The GPS Shield is built around the ublox's NEO - 6M receiver module. Its footprints match well with Arduino and MEGA boards. You can connect the regular GPS pins (RX, TX) to D0 - D7 of Arduino. It supports a software SerialPort and a Micro SD card interface. This shield is super easy to use. Just read the SerialPort, and you'll get the GPS data. It interfaces with customers and applications through a serial port using CMOS voltage levels, supporting both 3.3V and 5V IO operations, which means it's 100% compatible with all Arduino mainboards. Key features include compatibility with Arduino, Mega, and Crowduino, a Micro SD interface, compatibility with 3.3v and 5v logical voltages, an active antenna design with high receive sensitivity that also works with normal antennas, extremely fast time to first fix at low signal levels, and an operating temperature range of - 40° to + 85°. The package includes 1 GPS Shield PCBA and 1 IPC Antenna. There are also Manual & Wiki, Demo code, and Test software available.

Using this GPS Shield is a breeze. First, connect the regular GPS pins (RX, TX) to D0 - D7 of your Arduino board. Once it's connected, simply read the SerialPort to get the GPS data. When it comes to the antenna, you can use either the included IPC Antenna or a normal antenna as the shield is compatible with both. For maintenance, keep it in an environment within the operating temperature range of - 40° to + 85°. Avoid exposing it to extreme humidity or physical damage. Also, make sure to check the connections regularly to ensure proper functioning. If you run into any issues, refer to the Manual & Wiki, or try out the Demo code and Test software for troubleshooting.
