GNSS GPS prijímací modul Navilock EM-506

The Navilock EM-506 GNSS GPS Receiver Module is a compact positioning module based on the SiRF Star IV chipset. Designed for embedded and portable applications, it provides high sensitivity tracking down to -163 dBmW and communicates through a plug-in interface for straightforward integration. The module is powered by a 5V input and its small footprint of 30 mm x 30 mm x 10.7 mm allows installation in tight spaces where reliable satellite positioning is needed.

Advantages

The EM-506 offers a combination of high sensitivity and a compact form factor, enabling accurate position fixes in challenging signal conditions while fitting into space-constrained designs. The SiRF Star IV chipset delivers stable satellite tracking and fast time-to-first-fix performance. The plug-in interface simplifies connection to development boards and custom electronics, minimizing integration time. Low power operation at 5V makes it compatible with common power supplies used in embedded systems.

Suitable for

• Embedded navigation and tracking devices
• Portable receivers and handheld units
• Vehicle telematics and fleet management systems
• Industrial and agricultural positioning equipment
• DIY projects and prototype development

Key specifications

• GNSS chipset: SiRF Star IV
• Sensitivity: -163 dBmW
• Supply voltage: 5 V
• Dimensions: 30 mm x 30 mm x 10.7 mm
• Form factor: compact module with plug-in interface

How to use

Mount the EM-506 on a compatible carrier or directly into a host device using the plug-in interface, ensuring correct pin alignment and stable mechanical connection. Provide a regulated 5V supply and common ground to the module. For best satellite reception, place the antenna with a clear view of the sky and route antenna connections according to the host board layout recommendations. Use standard serial communication or the supported interface on the host controller to receive NMEA or binary position data and integrate the output into navigation or logging software.

Recommendations

Place the module away from large metal structures and RF noise sources to improve signal reception. Use a quality external antenna when operating in obstructed environments and ensure the power supply is stable and filtered to prevent communication interruptions.
