MAX 7 Product description
The MAX-7 series is the newest family of standalone GPS/GNSS modules from u-blox. With the
exceptional performance of the u-blox 7 multi-GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS and
SBAS) engine, the MAX-7 series delivers high sensitivity and minimal acquisition times in the
ultra compact MAX form factor.
The MAX-7 series provides maximum sensitivity while maintaining low system power. The MAX-
7C is optimized for cost sensitive applications. The MAX-7Q provides best performance
and lowest power, while the MAX-7W provides best performance and is optimized for active
antennas. The industry proven MAX form factor allows easy migration from MAX-6 modules.
Sophisticated RF-architecture and interference suppression ensure maximum performance
even in GPS-hostile environments.
The MAX-7 series combines a high level of integration capability with flexible connectivity
options in a miniature package. This makes it perfectly suited for industrial and mass-market
end products with strict size and cost requirements. The DDC (I2C compliant) interface provides
connectivity and enables synergies with u-blox SARA, LEON and LISA wireless modules. u-blox
7 modules use GPS/GNSS chips qualified according to AEC-Q100
