The tiny and mighty SE868K7-A/AL is the industry’s smallest GPS patch antenna module. Designed with an additional Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Filter, these modules deliver best-in-class performance. The combination of advanced features and a low-profile design significantly simplifies integration for space constrained applications by eliminating the need for external components.

The Jupiter SE878K7-A is a plug-and-play GPS receiver with integrated high sensitivity 18 x 18 mm patch antenna, SAW filter, additional LNA, flash memory, GNSS core, RTC and TCXO. It uses Telit’s “cavity like” PCB package with an optimized RF path for standard SMT mounting that does not constrain the host PCB, minimizing the antenna detuning. It supports GPS, QZSS as well as SBAS augmentation. The SE878K7-A series provides the positioning data though standard UART. Its onboard A-GPS software engine is able to locally predict ephemeris up to 1 day in advance and store this data in the BBRAM.

Assisted GPS and Bundling In order for a GNSS receiver to provide a navigation solution, it must have satellite orbits data so that it can accurately determine the expected location of each visible GPS satellite. If the receiver does not have this data, or if the data it has is too old, it must collect the data from the satellite after its signal has been acquired.
