Ublox NEO-6MV2 GPS Module

Description:

The module allows you to add GPS support in a microcontroller system (eg Arduino ), and the built-in NEO-6M system gives great possibilities and ensures high precision of measurement. The module has a built-in cell supporting RTC clock settings.

The NEO-6M is a GPS (Global Positioning System) module and is used for navigation. The module simply checks its location on earth and provides output data which is longitude and latitude of its position.It is from a family of stand-alone GPS receivers featuring the high performance u-blox 6 positioning engine. These flexible and cost effective receivers offer numerous connectivity options in a miniature (16 x 12.2 x 2.4 mm) package. The compact architecture, power and memory options make NEO-6 modules ideal for battery operated mobile devices with very strict cost and space constraints. Its Innovative design gives NEO-6M excellent navigation performance even in the most challenging environments.

NEO-6MV2 GPS Module Pin Configuration

The module has four output pins and we will describe the function each pin of them below. The powering of module and communication interface is done through these four pins.
