AIC, Active Interference Cancellation
EASY - Internally generated orbit prediction for fast fix times.
Description
A compact GPS module receiver using the MediaTek MT3333 flash chip providing a complete
GNSS receiver for optimum performance. The module can run two GNSS systems simultaneously
to enhance location and TTFF considerably. The M10578-A3 operates on a versatile 2.8V-4.2V
supply with low power consumption and several low power modes for further power savings. An
accurate 0.5ppm TXCO ensures short TTFF. Indoor and outdoor multi-path detection and
compensation. A second stage GNSS LNA to ensure optimal performance making it suited for small
wearable devices.
