## Description

The Adafruit FONA 808 combines 2G cellular connectivity with integrated GPS tracking in a compact 1.75 × 1.6-inch breakout. Built around the SIM808 module with an MT3337 GPS chipset, it provides voice calling, SMS, GPRS data, and GPS geolocation — all controlled over a single serial port via AT commands. The GPS module offers significantly better performance than the FONA 3G's GPS, with −165 dBm tracking sensitivity, 22 tracking / 66 acquisition channels, and a 32-second cold start. The board includes LiPo battery charging, level shifting (2.8–5 V logic), a TRRS headphone jack, vibration motor driver, and uFL antenna connectors for both GSM and GPS antennas.
