Hsinchu, Taiwan, July 1, 2009 SkyTraq introduced today Venus634LPx-T, a high-performance, low-power, precision timing GPS module capable of 30ns (1-sigma) timing accuracy. It features T-RAIM, automatic site-survey, and position holding mode, allowing precision 1PPS timing generation with only single visible satellite.

The self-contained timing-mode GPS receiver in 10mm x 10mm easy to use form factor makes it an ideal solution for telecom network synchronization such as CDMA, UMTS, TS-CDMA, and for applications requiring timing synchronization such as femto-cell / WiMAX base-stations, and NTP server.

Powered by SkyTraq 65-channel Venus6 GPS chipset, Venus634LPx-T brings industry leading performance of 29sec cold-start TTFF, -148dBm cold-start sensitivity, -161dBm tracking sensitivity and lower cost benefits to the precision GPS timing receiver market, enabling fast, reliable, and continuous operation even in challenging signal environments.

Venus634LPx-T is housed in 10mm x 10mm x 1.1mm LGA44 package, with operating temperature of -40 ~ +85degC.

Engineering sample, datasheet, reference design, and evaluation kits are available in latter half of July
