Less power. Less time.2u-blox 6: redefining GPS performance
u-blox 6 is the next generation GPS platform from u-blox. It features extremely low power performance for both real-time and non-realtime GPS applications and increased sensitivity while maintaining the fastest acquisition time on the market.


UBX-G6010 GPS receiver single-chip from u-blox

The advanced jamming suppression mechanism and innovative RF architecture of u-blox 6 ensures maximum GPS and GALILEO performance even in hostile environments.

u-blox 6 provides integrated support for u-blox' revolutionary "Capture & Process" technology for instant location capture. This feature allows the design of portable non-realtime GPS products with weeks or months of battery life.

Chips and modules based on u-blox 6 are the ideal solution for high-performance, low-power, cost sensitive GPS applications such as automotive navigation systems, low-power loggers, geotagging cameras and Smartphones, fleet and asset management, and PNDs.

Less risk.
Products based on u-blox 6 are drop-in compatible with existing u-blox 5 chips and modules, allowing for simple, seamless, risk-free design. u-blox 6 also supports the upcoming new European satellite system GALILEO, giving your products the best of two positioning worlds.
