Overview

The GPSGB2530 is a high-performance active ceramic patch antenna designed for multi-constellation satellite navigation. It supports GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo bands with an integrated low-noise amplifier (LNA) and high-rejection filtering to ensure reliable signal acquisition in challenging environments.

Why Choose This Part

This module features an ultra-low run current of less than 6mA, making it highly efficient for portable devices. It offers high rejection filters to suppress out-of-band interference and provides a gain of 1dBic within a surface-mount package featuring a U.FL termination for easy RF routing.

Applications

Asset Tracking
Ideal for fleet management and logistics trackers where a compact 25x25mm footprint is required.
Precision Timing
Used in network synchronization and base station equipment requiring stable GNSS reception.
Outdoor IoT Nodes
Suitable for battery-powered remote sensors needing multi-constellation support for faster cold starts.

Getting Started

To integrate this antenna, provide a stable supply voltage between 2.8V and 5.5V to the active LNA via the RF feed. Ensure the antenna is mounted on a sufficient ground plane to achieve the rated 1dBic gain and utilize the U.FL connector for a 50-ohm impedance-matched connection to your GNSS receiver.
