The realatively new GPS chip maker GloNav just introduced GNS4540, a new highly sensitive, ultra low-power single chip A-GPS solution. The new chip is designed for cellular handsets and mobile consumer electronics.
Offering best-in-class acquisition and tracking sensitivity, time-to-first-fix (TTFF), accuracy and power consumption, the GNS4540 supports both Assisted-GPS operation on GSM, WCDMA and CDMA networks and fully autonomous operation for use in handheld consumer navigation devices and other standalone navigation systems.
Here are some of the features of Glonav GNS4540:
- Best-in-class acquisition and tracking sensitivity, TTFF and accuracy: 157 dBm acquisition / 159 dBm tracking sensitivity in A-GPS and autonomous hot start modes
- Optimized for both cellular handset and portable consumer device integration
- DynaTrak advanced tracking and multipath algorithms for robust low dropout tracking in indoor, very low signal and rapid signal transition environments
- Hosted architecture optimized for cost and performance
- Supports GSM, WCDMA and CDMA control plane A-GPS assistance data standards
- Supports SUPL user plane A-GPS assistance data
- Exceeds 3GPP and TIA performance requirements
- Ultra-low power consumption: 30mW in 1Hz tracking mode
- Supports all common GPS and cellular handset reference frequencies (10 – 50MHz)
- Very low external component count and PCB size
- Supports ultra-low cost PCB dipole antennas
- UART and SPI host interfaces
- Operating temperature range -40C/+85C

Its ashame that this office furniture site above which is offering inexpensive furniture is posting a comment on a site that is COMPLETELY unrelated to the subject! Ironically I do own a furniture company that provides affordable furniture however I did come here with the intention of reading about the Navigation stuff!
