u-blox is introducing a series of automotive-grade positioning modules that are operational up to 105°C. The NEO-M9L modules and the M9140-KA-DR chip are built on the robust M9 GNSS platform and use dead reckoning techniques to provide accurate position data when satellite signals are compromised or unavailable.
The NEO-M9L-20A and NEO-M9L-01A modules, as well as the M9140-KA-DR chip, are specially designed for first-mount automotive solutions. They are all automotive-grade and suitable for integrated navigation systems such as in-vehicle infotainment and head units, integrated telematics control units and V2X communications.
The modules include 6-axis inertial measurement units which deliver low-latency 100 Hz raw data output. The automotive dead reckoning output combines the GNSS fix with IMU data to deliver the most accurate positioning output for the given scenario. Additional GNSS-only output enables seamless integration into a variety of third-party applications. The receiver also supports wake-on-motion, which enables smart features such as theft protection and power-efficient designs.
