NEC’s LOW POWER
GPS RF RECEIVER
BIPOLAR ANALOG + INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
UPB1009K
DESCRIPTION
The
µ
PB1009K is a silicon monolithic IC developed for GPS receivers. This IC integrates a full VCO, second IF
filter, 4-bit ADC, and digital control interface to reduce cost and mounting space. In addition, its power consumption
is low.
Moreover, use of a TCXO with frequency of 16.368 MHz/16.384 MHz, 14.4 MHz, 19.2 MHz, or 26 MHz switchable
with an on-chip divider is possible.
NEC’s stringent quality assurance and test procedures ensure the highest reliability and performance.
FEATURES
• Double conversion
• Multiple system clocks
• A/D converter
• High-density RF block
• Supply voltage
• Low current consumption
• High-density surface mountable
