GNS7560 GPS Baseband & RF

Microchip 0.4 mm ballpitch. This chip was developed for the NS4000 IP Generation of products and was used in PND's (Personal Navigation Devices) and mobile phones for E-911 and in-car navigation systems. It features a single chip GPS ME (Measurement Engine) with a fully integrated RF, containing 11 Track Engine channels and 3 Search Engine channels.
The Navigation PE (Position Engine) software runs on the host platform CPU allowing the ME chip to be smaller and lower power.
When launched, the GNS7560 made the Guinness Book of Records as the world's smallest and lowest power GPS receiver. Silicon wafer technology: 90 nanometre CMOS. foundry: TSMC
