1.0 Introduction The Navman Jupiter 32 module is a complete GPS receiver designed for surface mount assembly integration. The Jupiter 32 provides a simple, cost effective GPS solution for application designers. Application integration will vary primarily with respect to antenna system design and EMI protective circuitry. The Jupiter 32 is the successor to the established Jupiter 30, being electrically compatible and having a very small form factor. The provides an easy migration path for exi

It is subject to variations depending on application requirements. 2.2.1 Power for receiver and active antenna The receiver power connection requires a clean 3.3 VDC. Noise on this line may affect the performance of the GPS receiver. When an active antenna is used, the DC power is

2.2.3 Decoupling The schematic in Figure 2-2 illustrates a suggested method of decoupling that may be followed. Table 2-2 suggests decoupling values for all signals relative to the function required. This level of decoupling may not be required in a particular application, in which case these capacitors could be omitted. As shown in Figure 2-2, only the signal lines used in the application require decoupling. All capacitors are highly recommended if the module will experience substantial el

2.3.3 Decoupling components The recommended values for power and signal decoupling are shown in Table 2-2. The placement of these components must ensure that the low value capacitors have very short connections to the module pad and to the ground plane.

The modules can be used with a passive patch antenna if the connection to the antenna input is very short. It is possible to mount the patch antenna on the same PCB as the module, but to reduce the possibility of digital noise, it is recommended that the antenna be mounted on the opposite side of the board to the module. (Figure 2-6 shows an example of a PCB design integrating a passive patch antenna.) Figure 2-6: Cross section of application board with passive patch antenna 2.3.5 Design of

Notes: 1. If a multi-layer PCB is used, the thickness is the distance from signal track to nearest ground plane. 2. If the antenna connection is routed under the module, the track width should be approximately halved for that section only. It is recommended that the antenna connection PCB track should be routed around the outside of the module outline, kept on a single layer and have no bends greater than 45 degrees. It is not recommended (for production reasons) to route track under the mod

4.0 Manufacturing process recommendations The Jupiter 32 uses the latest Land Grid Array (LGA) technology. Solder interconnect is formed solely by solder paste applied to the board assembly. This results in a low stand-off height, depending on solder paste volume and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) geometry. This makes LGA ideal for small form-factor applications. Solder joint reliability studies indicate that LGA greatly exceed typical industry reliability. 4.1 Solder methods The Jupiter 32 ha

on the part. The proper nozzle should also heat the component leads by either hot gas or hot bar. The ideal reflow profile should be the same as the one used for mounting the part and depends upon the paste used. The reflow zone can be shortened as long as the reflow is complete. The part should then be lifted off automatically during the transition from reflow to cool down cycles using a vacuum. 4.1.9 Site Redress and Cleaning Once the part is removed, the site needs to be cleaned for attac
