Introduction 

UM960L is a new generation of GNSS high precision positioning RTK module from 
Unicore. It supports all constellations and multiple frequencies, and can simultaneously 
track GPS L1/L2/L5 + BDS B1I/B2I/B3I + GLONASS G1/G2 +Galileo E1/E5a/E5b + QZSS 
L1/L2/L5. The module is mainly used in geological hazard monitoring, deformation 
monitoring, and high precision GIS. 

UM960L is based on Nebulas

TM

, a GNSS SoC which integrates RF-baseband and high 

precision algorithms. Besides, the SoC integrates a dual-core CPU, a high speed floating 
point processor and a RTK co-processor with 22 nm low power design, and it supports 
1408 super channels. All these above enable stronger signal processing.   

UM960L features a compact size of 16.0 mm 

×  12.2 mm

. It adopts SMT pads, supports 

standard pick-and-place, and supports fully automated integration of reflow soldering.   

Furthermore, UM960L supports interfaces such as UART, I

2

C

, which meets the 

customers’ needs in different applications.
