At 645 mm , the Polstar PEB-225 GPS engine board offers advanced GPS performance in an ultra-small package. PEB-225 uses highly advanced GPS technology and is capable of acquisition and tracking in very low signal-strength environments. This enables effective and reliable operation in all scenarios. Polstar offers excellent navigation and tracking ability. Unique algorithms and multi-path mitigation provide an accurate fix in the most challenging GPS environments, such as urban "canyons" and other areas where GPS signals are weak or deflected off of surrounding buildings.

Designed for rapid, low cost integration, PEB-225 is a self-contained and complete GPS system that requires no external host processing power, and no external memory. PEB-225 may be easily and cost effectively placed on any host platform as an SMD component, or by using its optional board-to-board connector. PEB-225 comes with a powerful and easy to use API. It can be operated with an active or passive antenna and provides on-board antenna supervisory protection.
