Notes

  • Power pins (VCC, V_BCKP, VCC_RF, GND): Multiple ground pins (1, 10, 12, 18) and power pins must all be properly connected.
  • RESERVED pins (16, 17): Must not be connected; reserved for future use.
  • NC pins (7, 15): No Connect pins; leave unconnected.
  • RF_IN (pin 11): Requires proper antenna matching and RF filtering.
  • 1PPS (pin 4): Provides 1 Hz timing reference output when GPS lock is achieved.

Table 9: Absolute Maximum Ratings Stressing the device beyond the 'Absolute Maximum Ratings' may cause permanent damage. These are stress ratings only. The product is not protected against over voltage or reversed voltage. If necessary, voltage spikes exceeding the power supply voltage specification, given in table above, must be limited to values within the specified boundaries by using appropriate protection diodes.
