u-blox UBX‑M8230‑CT global navigation satellite system receiver chip

Monday, 20 March, 2017 | Supplied by: u-blox Singapore Pte Ltd


The u-blox UBX‑M8230‑CT global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver chip cuts power consumption to 20 mW at one position update every second. It delivers good speed and position accuracy even when tested in applications such as wearables and portable electronics, where the antenna is small and movement prevents a constant view of the sky.

The Super-E mode is suitable for devices that require high levels of speed and position accuracy, but where power is limited. Along with smart watches, sports wearables and fitness trackers, it can be used in trackers for assets, people, children and animals to provide accurate and frequent location information with minimal impact on battery life.

The product uses concurrent reception of GPS with either GLONASS or BeiDou. It allows batching location data temporarily on the chip, which helps to further reduce the system power consumption by avoiding the need to constantly run the main CPU.
