Brief Introduction

    The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver is a compact-size, high performance Bluetooth GPS receiver with elegant mechanical design. The core of this elegant device is the SONY CXD 2951 GPS receiver IC and the ST Micro 2415/2150 Bluetooth chipset. The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver sports a high sensitivity of –152 dBm during tracking and –139 dBm during acquisition. The average TTFF (time to first fix) is 2 ~ 3 sec. in hot start mode, 30 sec. in warm start mode and 40 sec. in cold start mode. This excellent performance really makes the mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver stand out. The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver is a class 2 Bluetooth device, with range of 10 meters. It supports v1.1 Bluetooth Serial Port Profile, which ensures compatibility with all devices such as PDAs and smart phones which also support the SPP Bluetooth Profile. There are three LED indicators on the mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver – a green (GPS) LED, a blue (Bluetooth) LED, and a red (power status) LED. The green LED will be lit when the GPS receiver is in acquisition mode, and will start blinking every 2 seconds when the GPS position is fixed (i.e., tracking mode). The blue LED will be blinking every 2 seconds when the Bluetooth is in connection and be blinking every 8 seconds if the Bluetooth connection between the host and mini-Bluetooth GPS is lost. The red LED will be blinking to indicate the battery power level is low, on when charging the battery and off if the battery is fully charged. The mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver incorporates an intelligent power management scheme so that the GPS is turned off if before the Bluetooth connection is established, or when the Bluetooth connection is lost. Together with the large capacity rechargeable battery, the operating time of the mini-Bluetooth GPS receiver is much longer than most of the Bluetooth GPS receivers currently on the market.
