When Trimble's GPS module Copernicus was first introduced it outperformed similar GPS modules in field tests. Now with the release of Copernicus II, performance has increased yet again. Tracking sensitivity is better by 8dB, start-up and acquisition is faster, accuracy higher and signal retention in poor environments raised. Copernicus II sets a new benchmark in GPS module performance.
Step Global is a specialist GPS supplier for the Australasian, SE Asian and Indian markets and Copernicus II can now be ordered from them. A new pricing structure has been introduced making the price/performance equation the best in the Australian market.
Copernicus II is a drop-in for its predecessor to carry forward the continuity and provide safety for developers.
Copernicus II at 19mm square and 2.5mm thick is one of the smallest GPS modules available and is surface mounted by way of 28 edge castellations. The tiny size makes it an excellent choice for applications such as vehicle tracking and navigation devices, weather balloons, asset trackers, security products, cameras and various blue tooth appliances.
The powerful Trimble development and communication protocols also make Copernicus II perfect for developers now adding GPS functionality to devices and applications that previously didn't require them.
Trimble product reliability, quality, their IP leadership (800+ GPS Patents), the price performance equation and support and design advice available make them an ideal GPS partner.
Trimble is a world leader in GPS OEM modules and timing products, all are available in Australasia, India, SE Asia from Step Global Pty Ltd.
