Product description

The UBX-M8030 high performance standard precision GNSS

chips from u-blox provide exceptional sensitivity and acquisition

times for all GNSS systems. The chips utilize concurrent

reception of up to three GNSS systems (GPS/Galileo together

with either Beidou or GLONASS). Reception from more than

one constellation simultaneously allows extraordinary positioning

accuracy in urban canyons, even with weak signals and

high dynamics.

The UBX-M8030 chips feature low power consumption in

concurrent reception mode and support advanced Power Save

Modes for all GNSS, the power consumption remains low even

for weak signals. The UBX-M8030 chips also support message

integrity protection, geofencing and spoofing detection

with configurable interface settings to easy fit to customer

applications. The firmware supports QZSS, GAGAN and IMES

together with WAAS, EGNOS, and MSAS.

UBX-M8030 chips are available in miniature WL-CSP and

QFN packages. Featuring built-in LNA, LDOs and a DC/DC

converter, and a small external BOM, the UBX-M8030 enables

ultra-small solutions with a footprint of only 30 mm2. Supporting

TCXOs or lower price oscillators further ensures a minimal

Total-Cost-of-Ownership.

The ultra small UBX-M8030-CT is a perfect choice for portable

consumer applications with demanding size and cost constraints.

Including rigorous automotive quality and manufacturing

standards, extended testing and low failure rate make

the UBX-M8030-KA chip ideal for automotive applications.

With UBX-M8030-KA’s operational tempature from –40 °C to

+105 °C, a new industry standard is set.

Migration from existing FW2 based u-blox M8030 chip designs

are simple, since the upgraded UBX-M8030 offers backward

compatibility.
