Ice Tube Clock w/ GP-635T GPS

Post by jpkelly »

I put a GP-635T (50 Channel) GPS Receiver in my Ice Tube and it works!
The GPS is very small so it fits nicely inside the case.
Here is a link to the item on SparkFun item on SparkFun. (Apologies for posting a competitor's link.)

I used the firmware found here.
I was able to get the firmware on an ATmega168 by disabling some of the features.

Could you post some photos of the bottom of where you attached your wires? I purchased this module. Thanks,

There is more information in the Adafruit documentation, and I wrote an updated--but unofficial--GPS tutorial. Although the modules used in those links is different, the wiring should be similar.
