Overview

The DAN-F10N-00B is a high-performance GNSS module from u-blox designed for concurrent reception of GPS, Galileo, and BeiDou constellations across multiple frequency bands including 1.166-1.186GHz and 1.569-1.581GHz. This surface-mount LCC module features an integrated antenna and sophisticated interference suppression, delivering high sensitivity of -164dBm for reliable positioning in challenging environments. It operates on a supply voltage between 2.7V and 3.6V with a standard UART interface for data rates up to 921.6kbps.

Why Choose This Part

This module offers a highly integrated solution with an internal antenna and built-in odometer, reducing external component count and PCB complexity. Its dual-band capability provides superior accuracy and resistance to multipath effects, while the -164dBm sensitivity ensures rapid acquisition and tracking even in urban canyons.

Applications

Industrial Telematics
Used in fleet management and asset tracking where robust RF design and high interference suppression are critical for consistent location reporting.
Safety and Rescue Operations
Supports Galileo Search and Rescue (SAR) return link messages (RLM) for specialized emergency response equipment.
Secure IoT Devices
Utilizes secure boot, message integrity, and anti-spoofing features to ensure the authenticity of positioning data in sensitive infrastructure.
Portable Navigation
The low-power software standby and hardware backup modes, combined with AssistNow services, make it ideal for battery-powered handheld devices.
