GPS MODULE NEO-6MV2 WITH ANTENNA

The NEO6MV2 GPS module comes with 4 connections: RX, TX, VCC and GND, which is quite easy to incorporate with using SoftwareSerial on an Arduino Uno or a serial interface on an Arduino Mega. There is only one little problem: The module uses 3v3 logic, which is not compatible with the 5v supplied by Arduino. However, a simple voltage divider can solve this issue.

Specification:

1.Supply Voltage:2.7 to 3.6V

2.Supply current:67 mA

3.Antenna gain:50 dB

4.Operating temperature:-40 to 85°C

5.Antenna Type:Passive and active antenna

6.Interfaces:UART,USB,SPI,DDC

7.Sensitivity-

• Tracking & Navigation:-160 dBm
• Reacquisition:-160 dBm
• Cold Start (Autonomous):-146 dBm

Program for GPS6MV2 Module:

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
//Create software serial object to communicate with GPS
SoftwareSerial gps(10,11);
void setup() 
{
 //Begin serial communication with Arduino and Arduino IDE (Serial Monitor)
 Serial.begin(9600);
 while(!Serial);
 //Being serial communication with Arduino and GPS Module //Important rate must be 9600
 gps.begin(9600);
 delay(1000);
 Serial.println("Setup Complete!");
}
void loop() 
{
 if(gps.available()){
 Serial.write(gps.read());
 }
 if(Serial.available()){    
   gps.write(Serial.read());
 }
}
