GNSS receiver RS-232 at 19200 and >1Hz NMEA-0183 needed

Hi,

I’m trying to find a ready-to-go GNSS receiver (packaged, includes antenna, backup battery) to provide RS-232 NMEA-0183 to a device that requires 19200 baud rate, and my application wants higher than 1Hz rate.

For example, a GPS mouse, but at 19200 baud, and 4-10Hz.

Is my only likely option, buying a module, USB/serial/UART adapter cable, installing a config tool on PC, and burning e-fuse(s) on a module, then coming up with packaging, etc. for may application? I’m an EE and could do this, just am in more of a hurry on this one.

Related: RTK augmentation offered by some SparkFun modules – attractive – but are they intended for survey, vs. vehicle sorts of speeds? If doable for road vehicle type speeds, may suffer the integration effort myself.

Thanks for any help.

The RTK Facet is fully packaged and does everything you describe. The RTK product line works great at 0m/s up to 500m/s (~1100mph).

The SAM-M8Q is my goto for all things basic GPS. It’s great. And is very configurable, and should do 99% of what you describe (>1Hz, 19200 bps, build in antenna and almanac batt) : https://www.sparkfun.com/products/15210

I looked at the RTK Facet, but the price is prohibitive. So for moment I’ll assume I’m looking at getting a board like the SAM-M8Q and integrating, or figuring out how to reconfigure the module inside a GPS Mouse.
