Interfacing with NEO-6M GPS Module

Download Project

This example project demonstrates how to interface NEO-6M GPS module on micro-controller targets using CASP.

Target

Vega Aries V2.0 is used in this project as the micro-controller target. However, any supported micro-controller board can be used.

Description

NEO-6M GPS module is connected to the target board as shown in the circuit diagram. A model is developed to communicate with the GPS module and measure some of the parameters such as time in hours, minutes and seconds and location in latitude and longitude. The on-board LED blinks steadily if the GPS module position is locked. The measured values are sent to the USB serial port for viewing on the host PC. User can see the measured data from the ‘Configure Simulation Hardware’ interface window by clicking on Simulation->Configure Simulation IO menu item from the CASP main tool bar.
