The module provides engineers with precise, centimetre-level accuracy for industrial navigation, with high update rates and low power consumption, making it suitable for dynamic applications like unmanned autonomous vehicles (UAV) and robotics.
The u-blox ZED-F9P GNSS module integrates multi-band GNSS and real-time kinematics (RTK) technology in a compact form factor, to deliver concurrent reception of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou GNSS constellations. GNSS signals from multiple frequency bands (L1/L2/L5) combined with RTK technology, enable fast convergence times and reliable performance for scalable applications, like robotic lawnmowers and semi-automated or fully automated machinery.
The ZED-F9P ensures the security of positioning and navigation information by using secure interfaces and advanced jamming and spoofing detection technologies, to provide a wide range of correction services to optimise performance according to each application’s unique set of needs.
The ZED-F9P also comes with built-in support for standard RTCM corrections, supporting centimetre-level navigation for local base stations or virtual reference stations (VRS) in a network RTK setup. The module also supports SPARTN format SSR-type correction services suitable for mass-market applications.
The u-blox ZED-F9P GNSS module is available in a 17.0mm x 22.0mm x 2.4mm Land Grid Array (LGA) package and features a -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range and the modules are manufactured in ISO/TS 16949 certified sites and are fully tested on a system level.
The ZED-F9P module is supported by the u-blox EVK-F9P-00, evaluation kit, which is also available at Mouser.
The kit is a powerful and versatile tool for evaluating the performance of high-precision positioning products and eliminates the need for an external power supply by providing a built-in USB interface power supply that also provides high-speed data transfer.
This evaluation kit's size and user-friendly interface make it suitable for various applications, including laboratories, vehicles and outdoor locations. Additionally, it can be used with a notebook PC, adding functionality to the entire design-in process.
