1.0 Introduction The Navman Jupiter 30 and Jupiter 20 series of GPS receiver modules are complete GPS receivers designed for surface mount assembly (SMT) integration. The modules provide 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 30 is the successor to the established Jupiter 20, sharing the same form factor (25.4 x 25.4 mm) and electrical compatib

2.3.3 Solder paste mask size This should be adjusted by experimentation according to the customer’s production process requirements. A 1:1 (paste mask:pad size) ratio has been found to be successful. 2.3.4 Solder paste type The module accepts all commonly used solder pastes. The solder paste can be lead based or lead-free. If a lead-free process is introduced, factors such as circuit board thickness, fabrication complexity, assembly process compatibility, and surface finish should be taken i

2.4.3 Decoupling The schematic in Figure 2-2 illustrates a suggested method of decoupling. These are capacitors C1 to C7. This level of decoupling may not be required in a particular application, in which case these capacitors could be omitted. Only the signal lines used in the application require decoupling. All capacitors are highly recommended if the module will experience substantial electromagnetic interference (EMI). All low value capacitors should be as close as possible to the modul

2.4.4 Serial RS232 data level shifter To connect the module to a PC comm. port, the serial data signals must be level shifted to RS232 levels. This has not been shown in the reference design, but many single chip RS232 level shifters are available, such as MAX3232. Note: It is highly recommended to provide test points on the serial data lines and ‘Boot’ signal (pad 3), even if the application circuit does not use these signals. This will allow the user to connect to these signals if a firmwa

Ground plane design. We reccomend a complete ground plane is used under the PCB with signal tracks on the same layer as the module. We also recommend having a ground plane on both sides of the PCB underneath the module. If the ground planes are very small, separate analogue and digital ground planes may not be required. The ground return for any signal should have a clear path back to its source and should not mix with other ground return signal paths. Hence the return path, which is the gr

Design of 50 ohm microstrip antenna connection. When designing the signal track from the antenna connection to the antenna input on the module, a controlled impedance microstrip with a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms must be used. The PCB parameters that affect impedance are as follows: 1. Track width (W) 2. PCB substrate thickness (H) 3. PCB substrate permittivity ( ε ) r 4. To a lesser extent, PCB copper thickness (T) and proximity of same layer ground plane. Figure 2-6 shows a represen

2.6.3 Passive antenna A passive antenna does not require any power because it has no amplifier. This is not the best choice if signal strength is a concern, however, it may be sufficient if the signal path is kept to a minimum (usually below 300 mm). An advantage to using a passive antenna is the ability to mount directly onto the application. For best performance, a passive patch antenna should have a metal ground plane (about 80 mm in diameter) placed directly under the antenna, and it is

2.6.5 DC supply protection for an active antenna Antenna DC supply current limit. When the Jupiter receiver is used with an external active antenna, the DC supply in the coax cable is vulnerable to over-current if a fault occurs in the antenna or its cable gets crushed, for.example.in.a.car.door. WARNING It is important to note that the module antenna power feed does not have internal current limiting. Damage can occur if unlimited current is permitted to flow through the module antenna pow

2.7 Jupiter adapter printed circuit board The module supplied in the Development kit is mounted on a carrier PCB in a method typical of a customer application. This carrier PCB illustrates and implements many of the design considerations discussed in this document. The module is interfaced through two separate 20-pin data connectors with different header pitches. This is for development purposes and provides a simple way to evaluate the surface mount module. The RTC (Real-Time Clock) backu

3.2.1 Adaptive TricklePower mode In Adaptive TricklePower mode, the processor automatically returns to full power when signal levels are below the level at which they can be tracked in TricklePower mode. This is the default behaviour when TricklePower is active. Adaptive TricklePower is always enabled on the Jupiter 30 and Jupiter 20 S (XTrac), and selectable on the Jupiter 20 standard module. 3.2.2 Push-to-Fix mode Unlike TricklePower, the operation in this mode is not cyclic.
