u-blox: ultra-small multi-GNSS module

u-blox has announced ZOE-M8G, a highly integrated System in Package (SiP) GNSS module based on the u-blox M8 concurrent positioning engine. ZOE is a new, ultra-miniature form factor (4.5×4.5mm) that houses a complete module without the need for external components.

The ZOE-M8G module is mainly targeted for applications that require a small size without compromising on performance (-167 dBm navigation sensitivity). For RF optimization, the ZOE-M8G integrates a front-end SAW filter and an additional front-end LNA for increased jamming immunity and easier antenna integration. A passive antenna can be used to provide a highly integrated system solution with minimal eBOM.

Samples are available in February 2017 and volume production begins in October 2017.
