u-blox 5 GPS Receiver Chips and Modules

u-blox' fifth generation of GPS receivers has surpassed all competition. u-blox 5 GPS single chips and module solutions offer customers cutting-edge positioning technology at competitive prices. Their latest range of GPS technology is setting new benchmarks in terms of speed, sensitivity and ease of integration. The new family of devices is based on u-blox' fifth generation positioning engine, u-blox 5, which boasts an acquisition performance of less than one second and an impressive -160 dBm acquisition and tracking sensitivity.  

These versatile, stand-alone GPS receivers combine an extensive array of features with flexible connectivity options. Their ease of integration results in fast times-to-market for a wide range of automotive, consumer and industrial applications with strict size and cost requirements.

u-blox 5 offers an ultra-fast acquisition time thanks to its 50-channel GPS architecture with over 1 million correlators and separate acquisition and tracking engines, capable of massively parallel searches. Combined with u-blox' AssistNow A-GPS service, the u-blox 5 chip and module generation acquires satellites in less than one second.

The u-blox 5 GPS module series is lead free and has an industrial temperature range of -40 to 85°C.  Modules are available with either on-board Flash EPROM to enables easy firmware upgrades and set-up configurations or lower cost ROM-based versions for cost sensitive applications. All modules feature u-blox’ OMA SUPL compliant A-GPS interface and support AssistNow Online and AssistNow Offline A-GPS services.
