Würselen, 5 May, 2010. Global Navigation
Systems – GNS GmbH presents its latest traffic
module, the TC6000. The new generation
combines four integrated wireless functions: GPS,
BT, and optionally TMC/FM reception or FM
transmission. Manufacturers of portable navigation
systems benefit from an innovative and compact
all-in-one solution that provides essential functions in a minimum of
space at an unbeatable price.
Bernd Bierwisch, CEO and co-founder of GNS, says: “We developed the
TC6000 combo module to help OEMs/ODMs in their efforts to save
costs and space. The module is easy to implement, it offers
considerable cost advantages, and it saves time during development
and assembly. The TC6000 represents a milestone in quality, efficiency
and cost savings. It provides a fast and cost-effective path to market
for our customers.”
The TC6000 has a very low power consumption and it works with just
1.8 volts without any impairment of the performance. Data is
transferred via a high-speed UART with data rates up to 4 Mbps. GNS
additionally supplies free Windows CE drivers fro GPS, TMC, BT and
FM. Third-party suppliers support the BT functions with BT software
and echo cancellation. Furthermore, the TC6000 features smart fixTM
technology which greatly reduces the TTFF time.
Developer kits and sample quantities of the TC6000 combo module are
available at GNS GmbH from mid-May 2010.
