Application Note 101 - Reading GPS data using uM-FPU64
======================================================
Mar 26, 2013

A full description of reading GPS data using the uM-FPU64 is available
as an application note on the Micromega website.

The minimum recommended software and firmware versions are:
uM-FPU64 IDE r406
uM-FPU64 Firmware: r404

Arduino programs are included to run the FPU demos. They can be easily
ported to other microprocessor platforms. The FPU demos must be loaded to
Flash memory using the uM-FPU64 IDE software.

Read_GPRMC-demo1.fp4
--------------------
This example provides a simple demonstration of reading GPS data using the
uM-FPU64 64-bit floating point coprocessor. It reads latitude and longitude
from the first GPRMC sentence.

Read_GPRMC-demo2.fp4
--------------------
This example provides a simple demonstration of reading GPS data using the
uM-FPU64 64-bit floating point coprocessor. It reads latitude and longitude
from the first GPRMC sentence. This demo checks for a valid GPRMC before
processing the sentence, so it will loop continuously until a valid GPS
signal is received.

Read_GPRMC-demo2.fp4
--------------------
This example provides a simple demonstration of reading GPS data using the
uM-FPU64 64-bit floating point coprocessor. It reads latitude, longitude,
and date/time from the first GPRMC sentence. This demo checks for a valid
GPRMC sentence before processing, so it will loop continuously until a valid
GPS signal is received.

Read_GPRMC folder
------------------
Contains Arduino demo program for running Read_GPRMC-demo1 or Read_GPRMC_Demo2.

Read_GPRMC2 folder
------------------
Contains Arduino demo program for running Read_GPRMC-demo3.
