u-blox MAX-M8 Series GNSS Modules

u-blox MAX-M8 Series GNSS Modules provide high sensitivity and minimal acquisition times while maintaining low system power. These modules feature a high-performing M8 GNSS engine in the industry-proven MAX form factor. The MAX-M8 series can concurrently receive up to three GNSS systems (GPS/Galileo) together with BeiDou or GLONASS and recognize multiple constellations simultaneously. These modules support message integrity protection, Geofencing, and spoofing detection. The MAX-M8 uses GNSS chips qualified according to AEC-Q100, manufactured in ISO/TS 16949 certified sites, and fully tested on a system level.
