    Description

    Note: The GPS module does not come with 4-pin headers. Since it is not pre-soldered, be careful when doing the soldering :) You can get the headers separately here

    This low-cost yet powerful GPS receiver is based on the famous and high-end u-Blox Neo-6M GPS module. It comes with a small battery for hot-start, and there is built-in EEPROM too. To offer better signal reception, there is an external ceramic antenna that connects to the board via a U.FL connector, solid!

    The best? It can operate from 3.3V to 5V system, so all those 5V Arduino boards (CT-UNO, Maker-UNO, Arduino-UNO, Mega, Leonardo, and many more) and 3.3V controllers that include Arduino and Raspberry Pi, work perfectly with this GPS module. Though it is 5V compatible, you will need a proper level shifter to interface with the serial (UART) line, please use a proper level shifter to do it. And do take note, it is not is Arduino shield or Raspberry Pi HAT form factor, you will need to do some manual wiring to interface with the controller board :) But that will be fun!

    Watch out for this great video from a maker on how to send GPS location to the Google Maps using this GY-NEO6MV2.
