The GPS evaluation board is housed in a ruggedized plastic enclosure that can easily be used for bench characterization or driving over the road. LEDs are visible to monitor the current system state. Data is transferred via an RS232 serial cable from the evaluation board to the serial port on your PC via NMEA formatted messages. Every system comes with firmware already loaded into the receiver, ready to plug and play. A 12V DC input is all that is required to power the system.
