GPS and GSM reference design with integrated SMT antennas and chip SIM

The C26-G26Q GSM/GPS reference design is a complete, integrated solution for telematics applications such as fleet management, asset tracking, road pricing, and security/surveillance. It demonstrates integrating a u-blox NEO-6Q GPS receiver with a LEON-G200 GPRS/GSM module. This 100% SMT solution uses passive SMT GPS and GSM antennas

The C26-G26Q supports full access to the NEO-6 via the GPRS/GSM module, allowing GSM and GPS control through a single serial port from any host processor. Optionally the C26-G26Q can be coupled with Microchip’s Multimedia Expansion Board and a PIC32 Starter kit (offered separately by Microchip, see PIC32 Starter Kit website), providing developers with a turn-key platform to begin developing the complete solution.

Features:
  • Telematics reference design with LEON-G200 GPRS/GSM and NEO-6 GPS modules
  • Integrated GPS and GSM/GPRS antennas (SMT)
  • SIM card holder and SIM chip footprint (SIM not included)
  • Simplifies developing customer end-products
  • Enables faster time-to-market

    Note that as GPS and GSM performance heavily depends on the customer's testing environment, the C26-G26Q is not intended for performance evaluation. We recommend using our EVK-G20 GSM and EVK-6 GPS evaluation kits for performance evaluation.
