Trimble’s Copernicus™ GPS receiver delivers proven performance and Trimble quality for a new generation of position-enabled products. It features the Trimble revolutionary TrimCore™ software technology for extremely fast startup times and high performance in foliage canopy and urban canyon environments.

Designed for the demands of automated, high-volume production processes, the Copernicus module is a complete 12-channel GPS receiver in a 19mm x 19mm x 2.54mm, thumbnail-sized shielded unit. Th e small, thin, single-sided module is packaged in tape and reel for pickand-place manufacturing processes; 28 refl ow-solderable edge castellations provide interface to your design without costly I/O and RF connectors.
Each module is manufactured and factory tested to Trimble’s highest quality standards.

The ultra-sensitive Copernicus GPS receiver can acquire GPS satellite signals and generate fast position fi xes with high accuracy in extremely challenging environments and under poor signal conditions.
The module consumes typically 93.9 mW at full power with continuous tracking. The module
is RoHS (lead-free) compliant.

The Copernicus GPS module is a complete drop-in, ready-to-go receiver that provides position, velocity and time data in a user’s choice of three protocols. Trimble’s powerful TSIP protocol off ers complete control over receiver operation and provides detailed satellite information.

The TAIP protocol is an easy-to-use ASCII protocol designed specifi cally for track and trace applications.
The bi-directional NMEA 0183 v3.0 protocol off ers industry-standard data messages and a command set for easy interface to mapping software.
