Waveshare LC76G Multi-GNSS Module: GPS, BDS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS

Overview: The Waveshare LC76G GNSS Module is a high-performance, multi-GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) solution, supporting a wide range of global navigation systems including GPS, BeiDou (BDS), GLONASS, Galileo, and QZSS. This versatility allows for multi-system combined or single-system independent positioning, providing robust and reliable location data.

Key Features:

• Multi-GNSS Support: Compatible with GPS, BeiDou (BDS), GLONASS, Galileo, and QZSS for broad coverage.
• Flexible Communication: Offers both UART and I2C communication interfaces for easy integration with various microcontrollers and systems.
• Configurable Baud Rate: UART communication supports a wide range of baud rates from 9600 to 921600bps (115200bps by default).
• Fast & Accurate Positioning: Features EPO (Extended Predictive Orbit) and EASY (Embedded Assist System) functions for rapid, precise, and high-performance positioning.
• Built-in Battery: Includes an onboard rechargeable MS621FE Li battery, crucial for preserving ephemeris information and enabling quick hot starts.
• Status Indicators: Equipped with two LEDs to clearly indicate the module's working status, including power and GPS fix.
• Integrated Antenna: Comes with a high-gain active GPS ceramic antenna by default, optimized for outdoor positioning.

Applications: Ideal for projects requiring accurate location tracking, navigation, and timing, such as:

• IoT devices
• Drones and robotics
• Vehicle tracking systems
• Geocaching and mapping
• Portable navigation devices

Outdoor & Indoor Positioning: The included active GPS ceramic antenna is perfect for outdoor applications. For indoor positioning where direct sky view is limited, we recommend purchasing an additional GPS external antenna (with IPX to SMA Adapter). The external antenna can be placed near a window (module within 3.5m from the antenna) to improve signal reception.
