MA-10P MADOCA GNSS Receiver for Pi Zero

Overview

The MA-10P Series is a product line from DATAGNSS that supports QZSS PPP services, enabling centimeter-level positioning using MADOCA/CLAS PPP technology.

The MA-10P PPP Receiver can achieve MADOCA PPP positioning through its built-in algorithms.

The MA-10P-PiZero, based on the MA-10P evaluation kit, works seamlessly with the Raspberry Pi Zero to provide MALIB PPP positioning. It is ideal for MALIB evaluation or research purposes.

The MA-10P-PiZero connects directly to the Pi Zero mainboard’s USB interface via a board-to-board Pogo Pin connector. The entire EVK requires only a Type-C interface for power supply, and data output is available through network, UART, and other interfaces.

The Pi Zero system is pre-configured with overlay technology, allowing for power interruptions at any time without affecting system stability.

The MA-10P-PiZero is designed to evaluate use with the MALIB project.

PINOUT

The MA-10P series supports USB power supply and 6-pin connector UART output.

The 6-pin connector UART is preset for PPP Position NMEA output.

Quick guide

  1. Power up

使用附送的 USB Power adapter 给MA-10P-PiZero的type C接口供电,注意,不要通过Pi Zero上的 MicoUSB 口给系统供电,也不要再使用 Pi Zero的 OTG 接口。

建议不要直接使用 PC 电脑的接口给系统供电。

你可以使用Power bank给系统供电。

  1. 接上天线

  2. 启动后大概10-15s,UART接口开始输出 NMEA 定位数据.
