DIAGRAM GPS Antenna PND / PDA 1.8V TC6000GN Power Management PushToFix GPS_RESET Host Processor UART TX MMI (keys, display) RTC Clock 5 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS TC6000GN-P1 includes a complete GPS engine. - GPS is fully processed without any host processing requirements - Standard NMEA message output from the solution to the host - RTC clock (32.768kHz) should be applied externally. 5.1 Real time clock (RTC) TC6000GN-P1 requires a real time clock input that will provide time information for GPS after an off-time. The clock signal of 32.768kHz is not on-module and has to be fed at pin RTC_CLK . Additionally, the clock signal is needed for some other chip-internal purposes. See chapter RTC Connection for more details 5.2 I/O levels TC6000GN-P1 core and I/O sections work at 1.8V nominal. Absolute Maximum Ratings should not be exceeded Should the TC6000GN-P1 be interfaced to a host with I/O at higher levels, level shifters should be used. No signals are allowed on the device I/Os in the absence of VDD_IO voltage because the most I/Os are not fail-safe. Not fail-safe means that the pins will draw undefined current from an external voltage applied to the pin, when no I/O power is supplied to the device. Only exception is RTC_CLK .

Due to high input sensitivity it can work directly with a passive antenna. The very short TTFF (Time To First Fix) and improved acquisition performance at low signal power levels is achieved through an enhanced receiver core architecture. The improved RF architecture and software techniques reduce the average power consumption. Minimized error in multi-path environments is achieved through increased IF bandwidth and higher sampling rates in tracking channels. TC6000GN-P1 supports APM (adapted power management) schemes to lower the average power of the GPS core to below 27mW. 6.2 GPS characteristics Parameter Frequency Output data frequency Navigation&tracking sensitivity Acquisition sensitivity Min 1/60 Typ GPS shutdown GPS deep sleep (RTC running) MHz 1/sec Note GPS L1 C/A code Configurable -163 dBm -146 -147 dBm autonomous sec sec All SV's@-130dBm All SV's @-155dBm sec sec All SV's @-130dBm All SV's @-142dBm 1 10 TTFF autonomous cold start TTFF autonomous cold start Number of channels tracking Number of acquisition channels Unit -162 TTFF hotstart TTFF hotstart GPS ACTIVE (acquisition) GPS ACTIVE (tracking) GPS ACTIVE (tracking) Max general 1575.42 1 1 34 45 16 40 Power consumption 68 78.6 mA 45 53.8 mA 180 A NMEA frequency = 1/sec NMEA frequency = 1/sec NMEA frequency=1/sec, -130dBm, APM feature active GPS_RESET GND 80 A PUSH_TO_FIX GND 15 mA (c) GNS-GmbH 2013,2014 V 0.26, Sep 10th 2014 5 GPS Module TC6000GN-P1 Datasheet V026 confidential information preliminary specification Accuracy Static position error CEP68 - 2 - m - 3 - m - - 2 m Static position error CEP95 Static position error CEP68 Normal open sky in Field Horizontal position accuracy using open sky roof-top antenna Normal open sky in Field Horizontal position accuracy using open sky roof-top antenna Simulator feed , IONO and TROPO errors oN at -130 dBm power level Static position error CEP95 - - 3 m Simulator feed , IONO and TROPO errors oN at -130 dBm power level dynamic position error CEP68 - - 3 m Simulator feed , IONO and TROPO errors oN at -130 dBm power level dynamic position error CEP95 - - 4 m Simulator feed , IONO and TROPO errors oN at -130 dBm power level velocity error CEP68 - - 0.1 m/s Simulator feed , IONO and TROPO errors oN at -130 dBm power level velocity error CEP95 - - 0.7 m/s Simulator feed , IONO and TROPO errors oN at -130 dBm power level 1PPS pulse duration 1PPS time jitter - Accuracy for timepulse signal 1 msec - - 100 nsec 1PPS rise and fall time 1PPS output impedance 10k//20pF 10 - nsec - TCXO output frequency TCXO output impedance - 26.000 1M//5pF - MHz - -5,000 - - Pulse rising edge deviation from expected pulse time, measured in a 300 seconds interval with full 3D fix,refer to http://processors.wiki.ti.com/in dex.php/CC4000_GPS_for_MCU "TI GPS PPS Timing Application Note" 10%..90% TCXO Operation altitude Operation velocity Operation acceleration ITAR limits 18,288 514 - m m/s m/s2 2.5 ppm No limit set (c) GNS-GmbH 2013,2014 V 0.26, Sep 10th 2014 6 GPS Module TC6000GN-P1 Datasheet V026 confidential information preliminary specification 6.3 GPS Power Management Features Power management schemes implemented for any GPS system requires an optimally tuned performance for both accuracy of the position fixes and the average power consumed for best user experience. TC6000GN-P1 architecture achieves both these aspects by providing flexibility and design choices for the system integration based on wide range of use cases and by leveraging on the proven silicon methodologies. Also TC6000GN-P1 provides position, velocity and time (PVT) measurements without any host loading. This, coupled with the optional built-in power management option, reduces the overall system power budget. Power management features APM feature provides overall GPS system power consumption of 27mW in tracking mode under open sky conditions. However - same as for any GPS device - the accuracy and stability will be lowered due to reduced activity of the positioning algorithms. Since working parameters of APM are not adjustable, a field test is recommended to confirm usability of power saving algorithm. Can provide PVT solution without any load on the host, allowing a reduction in overall system power consumption. Position update rates selectable by order option. Max of 1 Hz update rate. 6.4 GPS almanac and ephemeris data For quick re-acquisition of the GPS after off-times, the GPS engine should have access to almanac and ephemeris data. This data is permanently stored inside TC6000GN module. When the GPS is powered-up again, the data will be used to allow a quick re-acquisition, as soon as a coarse time information is available. 6.5 Push to Fix The Push to Fix signal is used to initiate a GPS fix session. The signal is defined as active high when starting a GPS fix session. The session can be a cold, warm or host start fix, depending upon the availablility and age of the assistance data.

After calculation of a 3D postion fix, the PPS signal is accurately aligned to the GPS seconds boundaries.

Depending on the application patch- or chip antennas or combo antennas (combination of GPS and Bluetooth) can be used. However, if there is a long wire between TC6000 GPS RF input and antenna, there should be an LNA (on the antenna side) to compensate for cable losses ("active" antenna). For active antenna configuration, the antenna supply DC must be blocked from the antenna signal line with a inductor L of 100nH and a 100pF capacitor C as shown in the diagram below. Antenna DC suply L Active antenna C TC6000GN More information about connecting and implementing a GPS antenna to an application PCB, please refer to GPS Antenna Connection Design Guide.

The module is put in sleep mode, by holding the PUSH_TO_FIX pin low. The pin may be controlled by the host controller or by another power management circuitry, which might be also a simple electromechanical switch. A static low level on PUSH_TO_FIX will keep the TC6000GN-P1 in a deep sleep with power consumption below 100A. 10 RTC CONNECTION The RTC_CLK is a free-running clock that needs to be supplied from an external clock source. It is connected to the RTC_CLK pin on the TC6000GN-P1 , and is a digital square wave signal in the range of 0 V to 1.8 V (nominal). The slow clock frequency is 32.768 kHz. RTC_CLK has multiple functionalities: Used to maintain GPS time between sleep intervals For clock frequency detection at power-on reset, before TCXO_CLK is available For power up sequencing.

Since TC6000GN-P1 is used only to deliver NMEA to the host only a single data line from the module to the host is necessary. The interface is requires 1.8V I/O. The idle state of the lines is positive voltage. To interface a standard RS232 UART (e.g. a PC serial interface), please add an inverting level shifter. To interface processors that have a different interfacing voltage level, level shifters are required. 11.1 GPS UART Interface details The UART interface is used to send NMEA messages and control data. The default baud rate is 9600, other baud rates can be selected by ordering option. The maximum baud rate deviation supported is 2%.
