Wireless Board Delivers High-Precision GNSS Positioning

July 7, 2025
The GNSS RTK 4 Click board from MIKROE provides precise GNSS positioning with real-time kinematics support.

Offering high-precision GNSS positioning with real-time kinematics (RTK) support, the GNSS RTK 4 Click add-on board from MIKROE cuts development time with hardware and software products based on proven standards. The compact board, which incorporates the LG290P quad-band GNSS module from Quectel, can receive signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BDS, QZSS, and NavIC while using SBAS for enhanced accuracy.

Designers are able to easily develop systems with sub-meter positioning accuracy. Target applications include autonomous navigation, UAVs, intelligent robotics, surveying, and precision agriculture.

A recent addition to the mikroBUS-enabled Click board family, the GNSS RTK 4 Click supports multimode RTK algorithms with fast convergence times and high accuracy, interference detection, and integrity monitoring. Ensuring sub-meter positioning in demanding environments, the board incorporates UART and I2C interfaces, a USB Type-C port for standalone configuration, and a backup battery option.

The GNSS RTK 4 Click also has the company's ClickID functionality, which enables automatic identification by the host system, and is fully compatible with the mikroBUS socket. It comes with mikroSDK open-source libraries for flexibility in evaluation and customization.
