u-blox Launches AEC-Q104 Grade Positioning Tracking Module
Published2021.07.14 12:18New Product NEO-M9L, Maximum Operating Temperature of 105°C
Enhanced Sensor Spoofing Detection Compared to Previous Generation
u-blox announced on the 14th the launch of the AEC-Q104 grade positioning tracking 'NEO-M9L' module, which guarantees an operating temperature range of up to 105°C. The new module and 'M9140-KA-DR' chip are based on u-blox's 'M9 GNSS' platform and provide accurate position information using dead reckoning technology when satellite signals are degraded or unavailable.

The 'NEO-M9L-20A and NEO-M9L-01A' modules and M9140-KA-DR chip are designed for automotive OEM solutions. Both the module and chip are automotive grade, and the NEO-M9L-01A product family offers an extended operating temperature range up to 105°C, making it suitable for integration into roofs, inside windshields, or within high-heat ECUs (electronics control units). Target applications include integrated navigation systems such as automotive infotainment (IVI) and head units, integrated telematics control units (TCU), and V2X.
The module product includes a new 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) providing low-latency 100MHz RAW data output. It provides 50Hz position update rates, making it suitable for real-time applications. The ADR (automotive dead reckoning) output combines available GNSS information with IMU data to provide accurate position tracking output for the given circumstances.
Additionally provided GNSS-only output enables seamless integration with various third-party applications. It also supports wake-on-motion, allowing the implementation of smart features such as theft prevention and power-efficient design.
Aravinthan Athmanathan, Product Manager at u-blox's Positioning Product Center, stated, "u-blox's M9 sensor fusion products enhance the availability and reliability of positioning output by simultaneously utilizing four GNSS satellite signals," and added, "In particular, the spoofing detection capability has been significantly enhanced compared to previous products."
Engineering samples and evaluation kits of the product are scheduled to be released at the end of September.
