MIKROE GPS Click
The MIKROE GPS Click is a compact mikroBUS add-on board built around the u-blox LEA-6S high-performance GPS receiver. It communicates with your microcontroller via UART or I2C, and also supports data acquisition through a USB connection to a PC application.
The LEA-6S module can simultaneously track up to 16 satellites with a time-to-first-fix (TTFF) of less than one second. Multiple power modes — Maximum Performance, Eco, and Power Save — let you balance positioning accuracy against power consumption, drawing as little as 36 mW in Power Save mode.
