MIA-M10Q - Integration manual
1 System description
This section gives an overview of the MIA-M10Q receiver, and outlines the basics of operation with
the receiver.
1.1 Overview
The MIA-M10Q module features the u-blox M10 standard precision GNSS platform and provides
exceptional sensitivity and acquisition time for all L1 GNSS signals.
MIA-M10Q supports concurrent reception of four GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou). The
high number of visible satellites enables the receiver to select the best signals. This maximizes the
position availability, in particular under challenging conditions such as in deep urban canyons. u-blox
Super-S (Super-Signal) technology offers great RF sensitivity and can improve the dynamic position
accuracy in non-line-of-sight scenarios.
The extremely low power consumption of 25 mW in continuous tracking mode allows great power
autonomy for all battery-operated devices, such as asset trackers, without compromising on GNSS
performance.
For maximum sensitivity in passive antenna designs, MIA-M10Q integrates an LNA followed by a
SAW filter in the RF path.
The small footprint and highly integrated System-in-Package (SiP) makes MIA-M10Q suitable for
compact designs in wearable and tracking applications.
1.2 Architecture
The MIA-M10Q receiver provides all the necessary RF and baseband processing to enable multi-
constellation operation. The block diagram below shows the key functionality.
