MIKROE-2670 / GNSS 5 Click – NEO-M8N GNSS Receiver Board
The GNSS 5 Click (part number MIKROE-2670) is a mikroBUS™ expansion board built around the u-blox NEO-M8N GNSS module, providing a turnkey solution for high-performance GPS / GLONASS / Galileo / BeiDou positioning in your embedded designs. It supports both I²C and UART interfaces and operates at a 3.3 V supply.
Key Features
- Based on the u-blox NEO-M8N GNSS engine (multi-constellation support)
- mikroBUS™ compatible click board form factor (57.15 × 25.4 mm)
- Dual interface: I²C and UART for flexible integration
- Operates on 3.3 V supply (typical)
- On-board LEDs: power indicator and PPS blinking when fix is acquired
- Backup battery support and hot/warm start capability
- Supports concurrent reception of multiple GNSS constellations (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou)
