Note: GNSS receive path uses either the dedicated GNSS connector or the shared
Secondary AUX antenna connector.
8.5 GNSS Receiver
The FN990 Family integrates a GNSS receiver that can be used either in Standalone or in
A-GPS (assisted GPS) mode.
FN990 modems support active GNSS antennas.

Total gain applied at FN990 RF input connector (Passive Antenna gain + External LNA
gain-losses)
GNSS RF Front-End Design
The FN990 Family contains an integrated LNA and front-end SAW filter.
This allows the module to operate properly with a passive GNSS antenna. If the antenna
cannot be located near the FN990, then an active antenna (that is, an antenna with a built-
in low noise amplifier) can be used with an external dedicated power supply circuit.
GNSS receive path uses either the dedicated GNSS connector #4 or the shared antenna
connector #1.
