How Can Ultra-Compact GPS Modules Reduce Integration Costs in Automotive Navigation Systems?

The MC-1513's miniature 15x13x2.2mm form factor with SMD stamp hole design dramatically simplifies PCB layout and reduces assembly complexity in automotive navigation systems. With only 12mA power consumption and built-in DC/DC converter, it minimizes thermal management requirements while the 66-channel GPS with SBAS support ensures reliable urban navigation. Contact us to receive integration guidelines and sample modules tailored for your automotive navigation platform.

Engineered for maximum efficiency, the MC-1513 consumes only 12mA during operation with an ultra-low 6uA backup current, thanks to its built-in DC/DC converter. The module offers fast Time To First Fix (TTFF) at low signal levels through free hybrid ephemeris prediction, and supports update rates up to 10 Hz for dynamic applications. Additional features include a built-in data logger, ±11ns high-accuracy time pulse (1PPS) output, and indoor/outdoor multi-path detection and compensation. Operating reliably across -40°C to 85°C temperature range with 3.0V-4.3V input voltage, the RoHS-compliant MC-1513 is the optimal choice for automotive navigation, marine navigation, and personal positioning applications requiring miniature size, low power consumption, and high-performance GPS tracking capabilities.
