Small size and ultra-low power consumption positioning modules and solutions, with multiple positioning modes

As users, when choosing smart wearable devices represented by smart phones, smart bracelets, and smart watches, the most frequently asked question is battery life. Therefore, in product design, in addition to focusing on the appearance of the product, choose a set Appropriate positioning solutions that meet the requirements of small product size and low power consumption are also essential. In this article, SKYLAB will take the small size, ultra-low power consumption GPS module SKG08A/SKG09A as the starting point, and introduce in detail the smart wearable positioning solution with small size and low power consumption.

As the user's demand for miniaturization and multi-function design increases, designers need to create circuit designs with higher density, faster speed, lower power consumption and compact size. The biggest challenge of smart wear is the battery life of its on-board small battery. Smart watches must keep working for a long time before recharging, while wearable medical devices cannot stop working at all. Therefore, engineers need to understand the power consumption mode of the positioning module. And the battery power time of smart wearable products.

In the limited PCB board, to meet the increasing demand for multi-function, SKYLAB's solution is to launch small and ultra-low power positioning modules and solutions for consumer electronics such as smart wear, such as the more mature smart wear The GPS modules SKG08A (9*8.5*2.2(mm)) and SKG09A (10.1*9.7*2.2(mm)) meet the dual requirements of smart wear for small size and low power consumption.

Ultra-low power consumption of smart wearable GPS module SKG08A/SKG09A

Low power consumption Min normal 18mA

â‘  Normal mode: full power consumption

â‘¡ Healthy low power consumption mode: 20%~80% power consumption, turn off the idle part of the CPU, and the tracking current is only 5mA, which can extend the battery life by 2-3 times

â‘¢ Intelligent low power consumption mode: <20% power consumption, intermittent mode

Healthy, smart and low power consumption means that the power consumption of our GPS module will be positioned by identifying the movement speed and self-adjusting the power consumption.

E.g:

Smart wearable GPS module characteristics

Super anti-interference ability

Have multiple positioning modes

Support FLP mode, still have high positioning accuracy under extremely low power consumption

Support antenna detection

The module has a variety of packaging specifications, easy to integrate, and quickly respond to customer product design
