u-blox Introduces New Ultra-low Power GNSS Chip for Wearable Device Applications

u-blox AG has introduced the UBX-M10150-CC, an ultra-low power GNSS chip designed to elevate wearable applications to new heights. It enables advanced, energy-efficient positioning with u-blox’s cutting-edge Low Energy Accurate Positioning (LEAP) technology.

The LEAP technology offers low energy accurate positioning reaching 10 mW power consumption. It provides an optimal balance between low power consumption and position accuracy. Adaptation to signal conditions enables a reduction in power consumption of at least 50% while maintaining position accuracy. This can be achieved in a variety of signal environments, from urban to forest and open sky, with the use of compact wearable antennas.

The UBX-M10150-CC optimizes the overall system power consumption by excluding the need for any heavy signal processing on the application processor, while also allowing for automatic external LNA switching, which saves additional power. The application processor can be set to deep sleep mode, which allows navigation data to be stored internally (data batching).

The u-blox M10 utilizes proprietary multipath mitigation technology to leverage the most robust signals from the L1 band, ensuring enhanced position accuracy in challenging urban and weak signal environments.

The UBX-M10150-CC combines exceptional accuracy with remarkable efficiency, ensuring optimal performance even in the most challenging conditions. Whether it’s running, cycling, or open-water swimming, the chip delivers precise positioning for a range of dynamic use cases. Despite its powerful capabilities, the UBX-M10150-CC is incredibly compact, measuring just 2.39 x 2.39 mm — perfect for sleek, space-constrained designs.

Thanks to its firmware upgradability and seamless integration with Android and SUPL support, the UBX-M10150-CC simplifies development, accelerates time to market, and ensures your device remains adaptable to future enhancements.

Key Features:

  • The smallest form factor of 2.39 x 2.39 mm
  • 10 mW Low Energy Accurate Positioning (LEAP) for sport activities
  • Running, cycling, and open-water swimming mode
  • Regular firmware upgrades unlocking new capabilities over time
  • Android driver and SUPL support for easy integration

The UBX-M10150-CC is an ultra-low power GNSS chip, designed for integration into wearable applications including sports and smartwatches, as well as other battery-powered devices with size constraints. Click here to learn more about UBX-M10150-CC from u-blox.
