1.0 Introduction  
The Jupiter 20 GPS receiver module is a very small surface mount receiver that is intended  
as a component for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) products. The module provides  
a 12‑channel receiver that continuously tracks all satellites in view and provides accurate  
positioning data.  
2.0 Technical description  
The highly integrated digital receiver incorporates and enhances the established technology  
of the SiRFstarIIe/LP chipset. It is designed to meet the needs of the most demanding  
applications, such as vehicle tracking in dense urban environments. The interface configuration  
allows incorporation into many existing devices and legacy designs.  
The Jupiter 20 receiver decodes and processes signals from all visible GPS satellites. These  
satellites, in various orbits around the Earth, broadcast RF (radio frequency) ranging codes,  
timing information, and navigation data messages. The receiver uses all available signals to  
produce a highly accurate navigation solution. The 12‑channel architecture provides rapid TTFF  
(Time To First Fix) under all start‑up conditions. Acquisition is guaranteed under all initialisation  
conditions as long as visible satellites are not obscured.  
The Jupiter 20 is available in three configurations:  
• Jupiter 20 (standard) – GSW2.3 navigation software  
• Jupiter 20S (high sensitivity) – with XTrac navigation software  
• Jupiter 20D (Dead Reckoning) – with SiRFDRive software and gyro interface  
Protocols supported are selected NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) data  
messages and SiRF binary.  
2.1 Product applications  
The module is designed for high performance and maximum flexibility in a wide range of OEM  
configurations including hand‑helds, sensors, and in‑vehicle automotive products.

2.3 Major components of the Jupiter 20  
LNA (Low Noise Amplifier): This amplifies the GPS signal and provides enough gain for the  
receiver to use a passive antenna. A very low noise design is utilised to provide maximum  
sensitivity.  
Bandpass filter (1.575GHz): This filters the GPS signal and removes unwanted signals caused by  
external influences that would corrupt the operation of the receiver.  
RFIC (Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit): The RFIC (SiRFstarII GRF 2i/LP) and related  
components convert the GPS signal into an intermediate frequency and then digitise it for use by  
the baseband processor.  
TCXO (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator): This highly stable 24.5535MHz oscillator  
controls the down conversion process for the RFIC block. Stability in this frequency is required  
to achieve a fast TTFF.  
Baseband processor: The SiRFstarII GSP 2e/LP processor is the main engine of the GPS  
receiver. It runs all GPS signal measurement code, navigation code, and other ancillary routines,  
such as power saving modes. The normal I/O of this processor is via the two serial ports.  
Flash memory: The Flash memory stores software and also some long term data.  
RTC (Real Time Clock) crystal: The 32kHz crystal operates in conjunction with the RTC inside  
the baseband processor. It provides an accurate clock function when main power has been  
removed, if the battery backup is connected.  
Reset generator: There are two voltage threshold reset generators in the Jupiter 20. The first  
provides a reset to the baseband block if the main power drops below a low limit threshold.  
The second shuts off the supply to the RTC in case the backup battery drops below a lower  
threshold. This is used to compensate for a slow SiRF rise‑time backup voltage.  
Regulators: The regulators provide a clean and stable voltage supply to the components in the  
receiver.  
DR (Dead Reckoning) components: The Jupiter 20D has additional components allowing direct  
connection to a turn rate gyro. The gyro input takes the form of a high resolution ADC (Analogue  
to Digital Converter), where the analogue signal is digitised and prepared for use by the  
SiRFDRive DR software running in the baseband processor.  
2.4 Physical characteristics  
The Jupiter 20 receiver is packaged on a miniature printed circuit board with a metallic RF  
enclosure on one side. The standard or DR configuration must be selected at the time of  
ordering and is not available for field retrofitting.  
A lead‑free RoHS compliant product has been available since the end of 2005.  
2.5 Mechanical specification  
The physical dimensions of the Jupiter 20 are as follows:  
length:  
width:  
25.4mm ± 0.1mm  
25.4mm ± 0.1mm  
thickness: 3.0mm max  
weight: 4.0g max  
Refer to Figure 8‑1 for the Jupiter 20 mechanical drawing.  
2.6 External antenna surface mount pads  
The RF surface mount pad for the external antenna has a characteristic impedance of 50ohms.  
2.7 I/O and power connections  
The I/O (Input Output) and power connections use surface mount pads with edge plating around  
the edge of the module.

13‑character serial number convention is:  
characters 1 and 2: year of manufacture (e.g. 06=2006, 07=2007)  
characters 3 and 4: week of manufacture (1 to 52, starting first week in January)  
character 5: manufacturer code  
characters 6 and 7: product and type  
character 8: product revision  
characters 9-13: sequential serial number  
3.0 Performance characteristics  
3.1 TTFF (Time To First Fix)  
TTFF is the actual time required by a GPS receiver to achieve a position solution. This  
specification will vary with the operating state of the receiver, the length of time since the last  
position fix, the location of the last fix, and the specific receiver design.  
3.1.1 Hot start  
A hot start results from a software reset after a period of continuous navigation, or a return  
from a short idle period (i.e. a few minutes) that was preceded by a period of continuous  
navigation. In this state, all of the critical data (position, velocity, time, and satellite  
ephemeris) is valid to the specified accuracy and available in SRAM (Static Random Access  
Memory). Battery backup of the SRAM and RTC during loss of power is required to achieve a  
hot start.  
3.1.2 Warm start  
A warm start typically results from user‑supplied position and time initialisation data or  
continuous RTC operation with an accurate last known position available in memory. In this  
state, position and time data are present and valid but ephemeris data validity has expired.  
3.1.3 Cold start  
A cold start acquisition results when either position or time data is unknown. Almanac  
information is used to identify previously healthy satellites.

Table 3-1: TTFF acquisition times  
3.3 Timing 1PPS output  
The 1PPS (Pulse Per Second) output of the Jupiter 20 receiver is <1µs, typical ±300ns in  
reference to UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). This feature is currently only available on the  
Jupiter 20 standard module.  
3.4 Battery backup (SRAM/RTC backup)  
During powered down conditions, the SRAM and RTC may be kept operating by supplying  
power from the VBATT as shown in Table 4‑1. The Jupiter 20 can accept slow VBATT supply  
rise time (unlike many other SiRFstarII based receivers) due to an on‑board voltage detector.  
3.5 TricklePower mode  
During normal mode of operation the Jupiter 20 is continuously running, providing a navigation  
solution at the maximum rate of once per second. This continuous mode provides no power  
saving.  
The TricklePower mode of operation can be enabled to reduce the average power consumption.  
The main power is supplied to the module continuously. An internal timer wakes the processor  
from sleep mode. The module computes a navigation position fix, after which the processor  
reverts to sleep mode. The duty cycle is controlled by a user‑configurable parameter.  
If ephemeris data becomes outdated, the TricklePower mode will attempt to refresh the data set  
within every 30‑minute period, or for every new satellite that comes into view.  
With TricklePower set to a 20% duty cycle, a power saving of 50% can easily be achieved with  
minimal degradation in navigation performance.  
3.5.1 Adaptive TricklePowermode  
In Adaptive TricklePower mode, the processor automatically returns to full power when signal  
levels are below the level at which they can be tracked in TricklePower mode. This is the  
default behaviour when TricklePower is active.  
3.5.2 Push-To-Fix mode  
Unlike TricklePower, the operation in this mode is not cyclic. This mode always forces the  
GPS software to revert to a continuous sleep mode after a navigation position fix. It will stay  
in sleep mode until woken by activation of the reset input, and compute a fresh position.  
If the ephemeris data becomes invalid, the RTC has the ability to self activate and refresh the  
data, thus keeping the restart TTFF very short.  
This mode yields the lowest power consumption of the module, and is ideal where a battery  
powered application requires very few position fixes.  
For further information on the TricklePower and Push‑To‑Fix modes refer to the Low Power  
Operating Modes application note (LA000513).

3.6 Differential aiding  
3.6.1 Differential GPS (DGPS)  
DGPS specification improves the Jupiter 20 horizontal position accuracy to <4m 2dRMS.  
3.6.2 Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) including WAAS and EGNOS  
SBAS improves horizontal position accuracy by correcting GPS signal errors caused by  
ionospheric disturbances, timing and satellite orbit errors. The Jupiter 20 is capable of  
receiving WAAS and EGNOS differential corrections. Both SBAS and DGPS should improve  
position accuracy. However, other factors can affect accuracy, such as GDOP (Geometric  
Dilution of Precision), multipath, distance from DGPS reference station and latency of  
corrections. Note also that XTrac does not support differential aiding.  
3.7 Navigation modes  
The Jupiter 20 GPS receiver supports 3D (three‑dimensional) and 2D (two‑dimensional) modes  
of navigation.  
3D navigation: The receiver defaults to 3D navigation when at least four GPS satellites are being  
tracked. In 3D navigation, the receiver computes latitude, longitude, altitude, and time from  
satellite measurements.  
2D navigation: When less than four GPS satellite signals are available, or when a fixed altitude  
value can be used to produce an acceptable navigation solution, the receiver will enter 2D  
navigation mode using a fixed value of altitude determined by the host. Forced operation in 2D  
mode can be commanded by the host.  
In 2D navigation, the navigational accuracy is primarily determined by the relationship of the  
fixed altitude value to the true altitude of the antenna. If the fixed value is correct, the specified  
horizontal accuracies apply. Otherwise, the horizontal accuracies will degrade as a function of  
the error in the fixed altitude.  
3.8 Core processor performance  
The standard Jupiter 20 with GSW2 software runs at a CPU clock speed of 12.28MHz. Using  
XTrac software (Jupiter 20S), the clock speed increases to 24.5MHz. An SDK (Software  
Development Kit) is available from SiRF to customise the Jupiter 20 firmware. Using the SiRF  
SDK the clock speed can be increased up to 49MHz.  
The processing power used by the navigation software is shown in Table 3‑2.

4.1.4 External antenna voltage  
DC power is supplied to the external antenna through the antenna power input pad (VANT).  
The receiver does not use this supply. The DC supply to the RF connection does not current  
limit in the event of a short circuit. Reference designs for antenna current limit are available in  
the Jupiter 20 Integrator’s manual (LA000508).  
The external antenna characteristics are as follows:  
voltage (typ): 3.3V  
voltage max: 12V  
current max: 100mA  
Warning: if the antenna or its cable develops a short circuit and the external antenna  
current is not limited, the GPS receiver will experience permanent damage.  
4.1.5 RF (Radio Frequency) input  
RF input is 1575.42MHz (L1 Band) at a level between –135dBm and –152dBm into a 50ohm  
impedance. This input may have a DC voltage impressed upon it to supply power to an active  
antenna. The maximum input return loss is –9 dB.  
4.1.6 Antenna gain  
The receiver will operate with a passive antenna of unity gain. However, GPS performance  
will be optimum when an active antenna is used. The gain of this antenna should be in the  
range of 20dB to 30dB.  
4.1.7 Burnout protection  
The receiver accepts without risk of damage a signal of +10dBm from 0 to 2GHz carrier  
frequency, except in band 1560 to 1590 MHz where the maximum level will be –10dBm.  
4.1.8 Jamming performance  
The typical jamming performance of the receiver based upon a 3dB degradation in C/N0  
(Carrier to Noise power ratio) performance is shown in Table 4‑2. This is with reference to the  
external antenna.

4.1.9 Flash upgradability  
The firmware programmed in the Flash memory may be upgraded via the serial port. The  
user can control this by pulling the Serial BOOT pad (3) high at startup, then downloading the  
code from a PC with suitable software (e.g. SiRFFlash). In normal operation this pad should  
be left floating for minimal current drain. It is recommended that in the user’s application, the  
BOOT pad is connected to a test pad for use in future software upgrades.  
4.1.10 Reset input  
This active low input (pad 22) allows the user to restart the software from an external signal.  
It is also used to initiate a ‘push‑to‑fix’ navigation cycle. In normal operation this pad should  
be left floating or activated by an open drain driver. Active pull‑up is not recommended.

9.0 Product handling  
9.1 Packaging and delivery  
Jupiter 20 modules are shipped in Tape and Reel form. The reeled modules are shipped with  
250 units per 300x44mm (DxW) reel with a pitch of 32mm. Each reel is ‘dry’ packaged and  
vacuum sealed in an MMB (Moisture Barrier Bag) with two silica gel packs and placed in a  
carton.  
The MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) for shipping is 250 units.  
All packaging is ESD protective lined. Please follow the MSD and ESD handling instructions on  
the labels of the MMB and exterior carton (refer to sections 9.2 and 9.3).  
9.2 Moisture sensitivity  
The Jupiter 20 GPS receiver is an MSD (Moisture Sensitive Device). Precautionary measures  
are required in handling, storing and using such devices to avoid damage from moisture  
absorption. If localised heating is required to rework or repair the device, precautionary methods  
are required to avoid exposure to solder reflow temperatures that can result in performance  
degradation.  
Further information can be obtained from the IPC/JEDEC standard J‑STD‑033: Handling,  
Packing, Shipping and Use of Moisture/Reflow Sensitive Surface Mount Devices.  
9.3 ESD sensitivity  
The Jupiter 20 GPS receiver contains class 1 devices and is ESDS (ElectroStatic Discharge  
Sensitive). Navman recommends the two basic principles of protecting ESDS devices from  
damage:  
• Only handle sensitive components in an ESD Protected Area (EPA) under protected and  
controlled conditions  
• Protect sensitive devices outside the EPA using ESD protective packaging  
All personnel handling ESDS devices have the responsibility to be aware of the ESD threat to  
reliability of electronic products.  
Further information can be obtained from the IEC Technical Report IEC61340‑5‑1 & 2:  
Protection of electronic devices from electrostatic phenomena.  
9.4 Safety  
Improper handling and use of the Jupiter GPS receiver can cause permanent damage to the  
receiver and may even result in personal injury.  
9.5 RoHS compliance  
This product complies with Directive 2002/95/EC on the restriction of the use of certain  
hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.  
9.6 Disposal  
We recommend that this product should not be treated as household waste. For  
more detailed information about recycling of this product, please contact your local  
waste management authority or the reseller from who you purchased the product.

11.0 Glossary and acronyms  
2dRMS: twice distance Root Mean Square  
ADC: Analogue to Digital Converter  
Almanac: A set of orbital parameters that allows calculation of approximate GPS satellite  
positions and velocities. The almanac is used by a GPS receiver to determine satellite visibility  
and as an aid during acquisition of GPS satellite signals. The almanac is a subset of satellite  
ephemeris data and is updated weekly by GPS Control.  
C/A code: Coarse Acquisition code  
A spread spectrum direct sequence code that is used primarily by commercial GPS receivers to  
determine the range to the transmitting GPS satellite.  
DGPS: Differential GPS  
A technique to improve GPS accuracy that uses pseudo‑range errors recorded at a known  
location to improve the measurements made by other GPS receivers within the same general  
geographic area.  
GDOP: Geometric Dilution of Precision  
A factor used to describe the effect of the satellite geometry on the position and time accuracy  
of the GPS receiver solution. The lower the value of the GDOP parameter, the less the error in  
the position solution. Related indicators include PDOP, HDOP, TDOP and VDOP.  
EGNOS: European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service  
The system of geostationary satellites and ground stations developed in Europe to improve the  
position and time calculation performed by the GPS receiver.  
Ephemeris  
A set of satellite orbital parameters that is used by a GPS receiver to calculate precise GPS  
satellite positions and velocities. The ephemeris is used to determine the navigation solution and  
is updated frequently to maintain the accuracy of GPS receivers.  
GPS: Global Positioning System  
A space‑based radio positioning system that provides accurate position, velocity, and time data.  
OEM: Original Equipment Manufacturer  
Re-acquisition  
The time taken for a position to be obtained after all satellites have been made invisible to the  
receiver.  
SBAS: Satellite Based Augmentation System  
Any system using a network of geostationary satellites and ground stations to improve the  
performance of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), e.g. EGNOS and WAAS.  
SRAM: Static Random Access Memory  
WAAS: Wide Area Augmentation System  
System of satellites and ground stations developed by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration)  
providing GPS signal corrections. (Currently available for North America only.)
