Target Applications

  1. Power & Size Constrained End Devices

  2. Wearables

  3. Asset Tracking

  4. Compact Industrial Solutions

  5. Deep Urban Environments


The MIA-M10 is not just a normal GPS Module but an ultra-low-power Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) module. To understand the difference refer to the image below.

It offers great performance due to following reasons:
