World's Smallest GPS Module : u-blox MIA-M10

U-blox is well known for their GPS Modules. Now they have launched the World’s Smallest Ultra Low Power GPS Module. Measuring at just 4.5 x 4.5 mm, the MIA-M10, is half the size of any of its competitors. The above image shows how tiny it is compared to a grain of rice!

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:

1. Capable of concurrently receiving four GNSS constellations (GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, and GLONASS)

2. Enhanced RF Sensitivity

3. Less than 25mW Power Consumption

4. Used u-blox AssistNow feature to lock instantly on startup

5. No external components are needed. It's a standalone package

6. Optimized Power Save modes 2x the battery life
