u-blox NEO-M8N GPS/GNSS Receiver Module | High-Sensitivity, Multi-Band
Product Description :
The u-blox NEO-M8N module represents a significant leap in positioning technology, offering robust performance for demanding applications. By processing signals from all major GNSS constellations simultaneously, it provides a higher number of visible satellites, resulting in faster acquisitions and more accurate, reliable positions than single-system GPS receivers.
Built on u-blox's proven M8 positioning engine, the module features a scalable architecture that balances high performance with low power consumption. It is designed for easy integration, offering multiple data interfaces including UART, USB, I2C, and SPI. The module's exceptional -167 dBm navigation sensitivity ensures it maintains a stable position fix in signal-compromised areas like dense city streets or under light foliage. Its extended operating temperature range and compact form factor make it suitable for a wide array of industrial, automotive, and consumer applications.
Key Features :
-
Multi-GNSS Concurrent Reception: Simultaneously tracks GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou satellites for maximum accuracy and reliability.
-
High Sensitivity: Industry-leading -167 dBm navigation sensitivity for superior performance in urban canyons and weak signal conditions.
-
Low Power Consumption: Requires only 21mA during continuous navigation, ideal for battery-powered devices.
-
Multiple Interface Options: Supports UART, USB, I2C, and SPI for flexible integration with various host systems.
-
Wide Operating Voltage: Functions from 1.65V to 3.6V, compatible with modern low-power microcontrollers.
-
Robust Industrial Design: Operates reliably across an extended temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.
-
Compact Form Factor: 24-pin SMD package for space-constrained designs.
