SE868-A GNSS Antenna Module

  picture not to scale

The Jupiter SE868-A is the representative of a new multiconstellation GNSS module family with embedded highperforming SMT antenna. 
The SE868-A is packaged in a 11 x 11 mm “cavity like” PCB solution with embedded Flash memory and integrated LNA on one side with an SMT antenna on the opposite side. This sophisticated solution provides customers with a completely integrated solution with optimized RF path and standard SMT mounting operation without any constraint in terms of host PCB. The SE868-A, unlike most competitive solutions, does not require any area of guard in the host PCB around the RF PIN zone. This solution minimize the RF detuning after soldering on the host PCB. 
The SE868-A is designed to fully support GPS, QZSS and GLONASS and it is Galileo ready. The SE868-A is capable to track GPS + GLONASS (and eventually Galileo) constellations simultaneously, providing the positioning data though standard UART. 
The Jupiter SE868-A supports ephemeris file injection (A-GPS) as well as Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) to increase position accuracy. Its onboard software engine is able to locally predict ephemeris up to three days in advance starting from ephemeris data broadcast by GNSS satellites received by the module and stored in the internal Flash memory. 
The Jupiter SE868-A features the best GNSS integrated antenna solution in the market with best-in-class sensitivity and current consumption.

Family Concept

Our positioning product portfolio is the result of over twenty years of experience in GNSS applications. Telit has developed a range of products compatible with the wellknown GPS constellation as well as its Russian counterpart GLONASS. Moreover, our portfolio is fully aligned with the upcoming service launch of Europe’s Galileo constellation.  Valuable features such as Dead Reckoning, Precision Timing, as well as speed and reliability assured by multi-constellation coverage, provide additional benefits for  your application.
Your application development effort can also benefit significantly from the seamless integration between Telit’s 2G cellular and positioning modules.  This bundling of  cellular and positioning modules significantly reduces development complexity without adding costs. Multiconstellation positioning products applied together with our eCall/ERA-GLONASS compliant cellular modules bring you ready-to-use emergency automotive tracking solutions for the European and Russian markets.
Typical applications include fleet management systems, European GPS-assisted road tolling systems, cellular base stations, in-car navigation systems, automotive telematics systems, and GPS-based personal sports training monitors.
