Product DescriptionGPS RADIONOVA M10300 is a ash based highlyintegrated GPS RF Antenna Module suitable for L1-band GPS and A-GPS systems. The device isbased on the high performance MStar Poseidon ICcombined with Antenovas high ef ciency antennatechnology designed to provide an optimal radiationpattern for GPS reception on a small, typically40x40mm or smaller, boards.

M10300 is a small compact module comprising of a

surface mount RF module and a passive antenna. All the front-end components are contained in theRF module, providing a complete GPS receiver withmaximum design exibility in multiple platforms. TheM10300 also includes Antenovas patented externalantenna matching which allows the antenna to beoptimized for a speci c product without having tochange the antenna or the module.

M10300 supports stand alone autonomous andassisted (AGPS) operation through MStarsproprietary long-term ephemeris data network, andoperates on a single 3.6V positive bias supply with

low power consumption and available low power modes for further power savings.

Recommended Application SchematicThe following schematic shows the recommended connection for the module for stand alone applications.Please contact Antenova for A-GPS applications.

The values of C1, L1, and L2 must be chosen in order to match the antenna impedance (RF_OUT port) to50 W (RF_IN port). The speci c values depend on the environment around the antenna (plastic case, hostPCB size, large components near the antenna). PCB trace that connects C1,L1 and L2 must also be keptshort as possible to RF_OUT and RF_IN pins. Gerber les showing an example layout for the matchingcircuit are available from Antenova. Please contact Antenova to get support on de ning the optimal matchingcomponents values and PCB layout recommendations for your speci c device.

Typical RF Antenna Module Placement

Note: Module placement locations and orientations are critical for achieving optimal system performance. Thepreferred orientation is for the module antenna to be facing the sky as show below. It is strongly recommendedto contact Antenova for design recommendations.

Host PCB Pad Design Antenova recommends two possible host PCB designs. The choice of which design adopted will depend oncustomer preference. Both designs interface with the standard M10300 RF Antenna Module. Drawings andgerbers are available for customers wishing to integrate these possible designs.

Design 1: Edge-plated

Design 2: SMT pads

Module Assembly

GPS RADIONOVA M10300 module is a compact module comprising a PCB part and an antenna part.The PCB part is suface mountable. The antenna part is assembled to the module PCB part after all re owprocesses have been completed, as the antenna part is not able to withstand the temperatures experiencedduring the re ow process. The M10300 module is RoHS compliant and has been design for lead-free solder re ow.

Following all re ow processes of the host PCB, the antenna part of the module can be assembled by slidingthe antenna and plastic carrier onto the front of the GPS module PCB. This is illustrated in the below pictures:
