Quectel are happy to announce the launch of their LC26G-T GNSS

• GNSS timing module
• 12.2mm × 16.0mm × 2.4mm
• 0.85 g
• Supports GPS + GLONASS + Galileo + BDS + QZSS

LC26G-T is a compact, single-band multi-constellation module featuring high-precision timing and standard-precision positioning. For high-precision timing applications, the module can synchronize with the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) at a nanosecond resolution. This outstanding timing performance is crucial to a variety of applications demanding high accuracy and stability time. LC26G-T’s integrated LNA provides high sensitivity, fast tracking, and signal acquisition, and ensures improved performance even in challenging environments.

In contrast to single constellation GPS-only receivers, LC26G-T’s multi-constellation GNSS receiver can access a vast number of visible satellites and thus improve positioning and timing accuracy even in dense urban canyons. LC26G-T includes timing integrity measures with Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) and continuous phase uncertainty estimation, and features high dynamic range radios with both analog and digital interference mitigation. It also leverages AGNSS data, resulting in a significantly reduced Time to First Fix (TTFF). The AGNSS feature enables high sensitivity acquisition even on the module’s first start-up, when precise location, time, and frequency are still unknown.

The enhanced performance of the LC26G-T makes it ideal for base station timing applications including the new 5G ORAN demand and industrial applications like power monitoring. The module can also be used as reference clock in many time critical applications.
