General Description
The Gotop GT-1110-MTR is a complete
GPS engine module that features super sensitivity,
ultra low power and small form factor. The GPS
signal is applied to the antenna input of module,
and a complete serial data message with position,
velocity and time information is presented at the
serial interface with NMEA protocol or custom
protocol.
Its –165dBm tracking sensitivity extends
positioning coverage into place like urban
canyons and dense foliage environment where
the GPS was not possible before. The small form
factor and low power consumption make the
module easy to integrate into portable device like
PNDs, mobile phones, cameras and vehicle
navigation systems.
Applications
 LBS (Location Based Service)
 PND (Portable Navigation Device)
 Vehicle navigation system
 Mobile phone

  • Page 8: Power Supply

    GT-1110-MTR GPS Receiver Module Figure 3: GPIO1/GPIO2 control circuit Table 3: Module baud rate control GPIO1(R1) GPIO2(R2) Baud rate state 9600bps 0Ω 4800bps 0Ω 115200bps 0Ω 0Ω 38400bps 2.3. Power Supply VCC pin supplies power for BB, RF, I/O, LNA, short protection and antenna detection circuit. The load current of VCC varies according to the VCC level, processor load, the number of tracked satellites and the rate of satellite re-acquisition.
  • Page 9 Power supply solutions for GT-1110-MTR module are listed as the following.  The simplest power circuit for GT-1110-MTR module is 3.3V power source connected to VCC pin and VBAT pin of the module directly. In this case, once you powered on the module, the full cold start will be implemented.
  • Page 10: Operating Modes

    Figure 6: Reference Charging Circuit for Chargeable Battery VCC does not supply power for RTC domain in GT-1110-MTR module, so the VBAT pin must be powered externally. Furthermore, it is strongly recommended to supply power to VBAT through a backup battery, which can ensure GT-1110-MTR module supports EASY technology and improves TTFF after next restart.
  • Page 11: Full On Mode

    Backup mode consumes lower power than standby mode. In this mode, only the backup supply VBAT is powered on while the main supply VCC is switched off by host or the TIMER signal of GT-1110-MTR. In order to enter into backup mode autonomously via the TIMER pin, an external switch circuit is necessary.
  • Page 12 When this command is executed successfully, TIMER signal will be pulled down to close the power switch, so GT-1110-MTR module can go into backup mode as the main power VCC is cut off. For this case, pulling the GPS_EN signal high by host is the only way to wake the module up.
  • Page 13: Periodic Mode

    Figure 8: Seiko MS920SE Charge and Discharge Characteristics 2.4.4. Periodic Mode Periodic mode is a power saving mode of GT-1110-MTR that can control the full on mode and standby/backup mode periodically to reduce power consumption. It contains periodic standby mode and periodic backup mode.

Sending “$PMTK225,0*2B” just in Run_time or 2nd_run_time can make the module enter into full on mode from periodic backup mode.
  • Page 15: Alwayslocatetm Mode

    “$PMTK225,0*2B” sent just after the module has been waked up from previous backup cycle. The positioning accuracy in AlwaysLocate mode will be somewhat degraded, especially in high speed. The ™ following picture shows the rough power consumption of GT-1110-MTR module in different daily scenes when AlwaysLocate mode is enabled. ™...
  • Page 16: Flp Mode

    FLP function is disabled by default. You can enable FLP by SDK or PMTK command. Sending “$PMTK262,1*29” will enable FLP function, and wait until GT-1110-MTR module gets a valid fix. Then wait at least 60s for GT-1110-MTR to enter FLP mode. FLP function will be disabled after sending “$PMTK262,0*28”.
