GSM/GPRS Shield with GPS Receiver PA6E-CAM


Quick Overview :

This is a very low cost and simple Arduino GSM and GPRS shield. We use the module SIMCom SIM900A.

The Shield connects your Arduino to the internet using the GPRS wireless network. Just plug this module onto your Arduino board, plug in a SIM card from an operator offering GPRS coverage and follow a few simple instructions to start controlling your world through the internet. You can also make/receive voice calls (you will need an external speaker and microphone circuit) and send/receive SMS messages.

GPS module from GlobalTop: PA6E-CAM, based on MediaTek MT3333 chipset. Possibility of using both systems improves position accuracy and shortens cold start time, especially in difficult satellite signal conditions.

Module is pin-to-pin and functionally compatible to older PA6E module based on MT3329 chipset. Thus it is possible simple migration to this module without changing of printed boards.



GSM/GPRS Shield Features:

  • Dual-Band GSM/GPRS 900/ 1800 MHz
  • TTL data(RX,TX,GND).
  • ESD Compliance.
  • Enable with MIC and SPeaker socket.
  • SMA connector with GSM Antenna 
  • SIM Card holder.
  • Configurable baud rate
  • Inbuilt Powerful TCP/IP protocol stack for internet data transfer over GPRS.


GPS Receiver PA6E-CAM Features:
  • 33 tracking/ 99 acquisition-channel GPS receiver.
  • Supports QZSS, SBAS(WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS, GAGAN*) ranging.
  • Ultra-High Sensitivity: -165dBm.
  • High Update Rate: up to 10Hz(: SBAS can only be enabled when update rate is equal or less than to 5Hz.).
  • 12 multi-tone active interference canceller(Some features need special firmware or command programmed by customer please refer to “PMTK Command List”)
  • High accuracy 1-PPS timing support for Timing Applications (±10ns RMS jitter).
  • AGPS Support for Fast TTFF.
GSM/GPRS Shield Applications:
  • Industrial automation.
  • GPRS based data logging.

RDL UNO-PI


QUICK OVERVIEW:
It's quite common practice for an hobbyist/Electronic enthusiasts building an application on Raspberry Pi and Arduino stacked together. RDL UNO PI which reduces the circuit complexity between Raspberry and Arduino , RPI and Arduino shields can be stacked easily onto UNO-PI headers.

One can easily handle PWM and Analog inputs by stack on RDL ATmega328 board programmed with Arduino IDE. Connectivity made easier by selectable jumper settings, enables the connection switching between RPI(GPIO pins),UNO(D0-D7) and External data(IO0-IO7) with Bi-Directional voltage level converter(3.3v-5v).On board DC-DC option provides stable current  up to 2.5A and 3.3v-5v for the required circuit.




1.External Analog pins(ADC).*


2.DC input 12v.

3.Power supply DC 12v.

4.DC-DC 12v-5v 2.5A.
