Titan X1 Datasheet
Version: V0A
1. Function Description
1.1 Overview
Titan X1 is a POT (Patch On Top) GNSS module with an extra embedded function for external antenna I/O and
comes with automatic antenna switching function and also features a antenna system called “Antenna Advisor”
that helps with the detections and notifications of different antenna statuses, including active antenna
connection; it is one of the smallest MediaTek-based modules in the world, for it has an ultra-compact size of
12.5 x 12.5 x 6.8 mm in a QFN Package. This ultra-compact module provides multiple interfaces such as I2C,
SPI & UART, and its unique design of SMPS is capable of reducing power consumption to a great extent.
Titan X1 is built based on MediaTek’s new generation GNSS Chipset MT3333. It supports up to 210 PRN
channels with 99 search channels and 33 simultaneous tracking channels. With support of QZSS, SBAS (WAAS,
EGNOS, MSAS), QZSS and AGPS, Titan X1 can provide even more accurate positioning. Its Tone Active
Interference Canceller is capable of removing 12 active noise sources and such feature enables more flexibility
in system design.
Titan X1 is integrated along with power managements and many advanced features, including AlwaysLocate™,
EASY™, EPO™, PPS sync NMEA and logger. It is ideally suitable for power sensitive devices especially for
portable applications.
Potential Applications:
Handheld Devices
M2M applications
Asset management
Surveillance systems
Wearable products
