SiRF III Transplant CF GPS
Receiver Card
(WAAS Version)

GPS Receiver Card for PDAs, Laptop Computers and Tablet PCs

 

The SiRF III Transplant CF GPS receiver is a GPS Receiver with a type II compactflash interface. It uses the latest SiRF III GPS chipset for much more accurate position than previous models, and even less power consumption than previous low-power models. Using the standard NMEA output, it is compatable with all GPS software which accepts the industry standard input. Compatible devices include all Pocket PCs with a compactflash slot, Win CE devices, and Laptop computers (using a PC Card Adapter).

Although the SiRF III Transplant CF Primum GPS is not accurate enough for highly precise applications, this WAAS receiver is great for scouting and sampling or trip navigation.

Call for information about Handheld Mapping Combos that include the SiRF III Transplant CF GPS, an iPAQ Pocket PC, Farm Works software, and accessories.

Features include:

  • Great satellite reception, very fast time-to-fix and re-acquisition rate.
  • SiRF III chip enables improved reception in previously "difficult" areas like under tree canopies, around buildings, in canyons, etc.
  • Improved SiRF III accuracy: typically under 3 meters using WAAS (tested at 1-3 meters), 5 meters without WAAS. Suitable for scouting, sampling, mapping, and VRA.
  • Uses even less power than previous low-power models. 
  • Slim anennta housing design.
  • Supports industry GPS standard NMEA v2.2 and SiRF binary code.
