PA1010D GPS driver in micropython

[arobertsonithree]

I've tried to get a PA1010D GPS working but failed to find a driver to suit. For various reasons it needs to be micropyhon (not circuitpython) and use a I2C interface. I've found the circuitpython one and Pimoroni publish a python one (https://github.com/pimoroni/pa1010d-python). But I have can't get it to work. ChatGPT is absolutely useless in converting these to micropython. Does anyone know of a good native micropython driver for I2C I could try? I'm not an expert in this so may have missed something obvious.

Go to https://github.com/orgs/micropython/discussions/11651 , user @divergentti implemented driver for NEO-6M GPS at least for MTK NMEA Packet Protocol you will be able to adapt code, or just adapt adafruit_gps

For connection/communication with PA1010D GPS, standard (native) micro-python i2C will be sufficient, you need just read message or send command.

edit: on awesome-micropython you will find some links to gps libs , for example micropyGPS it is for pyboard.
