GloNav Inc releases to grab semiconductor breaks in the fast growing wireless handset and mobile device global positioning system (GPS) markets, by enhancing a heritage of GPS technology development acrossing over 20 years. GloNav is the latest fabless semiconductor company designing GPS chips. The company was set up on June 23, 2006, from the spin out of the GPS business from Ceva Inc, and acquirement of RFDomus Inc., with a $16.2 million capital round carried by Atlantic Bridge Ventures. GloNav’s GPS technology today is consisted with the privilege of the longest heritage of development in the semiconductor industry.



Our broad and deep intellectual technology and property portfolio spans over two decades of research and development, as well as a snowballing investment of over $60 million. The influential grouping of the technology, obtained from Ceva and RFDomus allows the highest-sensitivity, industry’s lowest power and the fastest time-to-first-fix (TTFF) GPS/assisted-GPS (A-GPS) receiver.



The digital signal processing (DSP)-based receiver is included with set in and host-based satellite acquirement and navigation software designed distinctively for assisted-GPS applications on cellular networks and optimized to provide high levels of accuracy in indoor and outdoor environments. GloNav’s baseband technology is hoped to put in this year in more than 5 million wireless handset and mobile device applications. While shipping on its low-power GPS RFIC and GPS baseband, GloNav is going to announce extra GPS semiconductor solution products by year-end.
