Product Overview

The GP-1818MK is a low-cost, high-performance GPS module designed to make tracking simple. With a built-in antenna and a compact footprint, this all-in-one solution provides accurate position, velocity, and timing data through the standard NMEA-0183 protocol. Its efficient design makes it perfect for battery-powered systems, portable trackers, and any project where space and power are at a premium.

The 20U7 Successor

If you have used our popular 20U7 module before, the GP-1818MK is your new go-to. We selected this module specifically to be a seamless replacement for the older version.

  • Easy Migration: It comes terminated with a similar 3-pin connector, meaning minimal changes are needed to swap it into existing designs.
  • Same Performance: It retains the robust 56-channel tracking and low-power capabilities you expect, ensuring your project doesn't skip a beat.
