This DFRobot USB GPS Receiver is made for Raspberry Pi, LattePanda and Jetson Nano, and for navigation, asset tracking, robotics, wearable devices, industrial positioning and IoT location monitoring. It has an integrated antenna, a built-in backup battery and a USB connection, so you plug it in and read the position data as a serial device.
It is built on the UBX-G7020-KT chip, which supports a 56-channel receiver.
Baud rates run from 4800 to 115200 bps, the update rate is 1 Hz and sensitivity is -162 dBm for tracking, -160 dBm for acquisition and -148 dBm for a cold start. Average start times are 29 seconds cold, 3 seconds warm and 1 second hot. The unit measures 60 x 24 x 9 mm, weighs 50 g and works from -40 to 85 C.
On a computer, the receiver appears as a serial port, and the standard NMEA sentences can be read by tools such as gpsd. For the fastest fix, use it outdoors or beside a window, and use a short USB extension if you want to place it away from electronics that generate noise.
Developers and makers who need location data on a single-board computer without soldering.
On Linux systems the receiver appears as a serial device, usually /dev/ttyACM0 or /dev/ttyUSB0. Tools such as gpsd and cgps can display the position and the number of satellites. If you do not see any data, check the baud rate, try a different USB port and move the receiver closer to a window.
