Automotive positioning and connectivity modules

Automotive qualified product variants will be added to u-blox’s range of positioning and cellular wireless connectivity modules. The additions comprise the NEO-M8Q-01A, NEO-M8L-01A, SARA-G350-02A and LISA-U201-03A.

The NEO-M8Q-01A and the NEO-M8L-01A positioning modules provide concurrent reception of GPS, GLONASS, Beidou, and Galileo signals. The NEO-M8L-01A provides 100% dead reckoning positioning coverage, even in areas of weak signal or poor signal quality such as caused by multi-path reflections. The module is qualified to operate in temperatures ranging from -40 to 85°C and the NEO-M8Q-01 GNSS module is said to be the first such module able to operate in temperatures ranging from -40 to 105°C.

The SARA-G350-02A is a quad-band GSM/GPRS data and voice connectivity. The LISA-U201-03A also provides global connectivity with five HSPA bands and with data rates of up to 7.2Mbit/s. Both modules have operating temperatures ranging from -40 to 85°C, have compact footprints and low power consumption.

Manufactured according to the ISO/TS 16949 automotive supply chain quality management standard, the modules are tested with an extended qualification process.
