QZP Base GPS Dual Feed M9N
Featuring a u-Blox© M9N, this GNSS receiver was designed as the base line option for our QZPro platform. The double-feed antenna improves signal gain, resulting in a shorter time to first fix and a more accurate PVT solution.
Interfaces neatly with the QZ PRO main board via the flat cable connector. However, this doesn’t limit its connectivity as it still has a traditional JST-GH GPS port for use with any other flight controller.

Features
Section titled “Features”TVS protection added on all input voltages. Now your board is more robust and reliable.
Backup battery circuit, offers up to 6 weeks for warm-start of the GNSS Module, battery retains full capacity after several charging cycles.
PPS logic voltage selector added for a mosfet-driven (push-pull) output pad
External interrupt, safe boot, D_SEL pads from u-blox chip are exposed
Ground separations: the PCB is a multi-layered device, which allows us to separate the grounds from the GPS engine and the “rest” as much as possible, to reduce noise affecting the very weak GNSS signals.
I2C (Secondary): All sensors except GNSS are transmitted through I2C.
Exposed USB interface, to use it, please contact us at info@3dr.com.
Optional configuration to use the M9N through I2C.

Warranty and Warnings
Section titled “Warranty and Warnings”Handle with care and avoid touching the metal cap antenna, your static discharge might damage the internal LNA. Do not cover it with tape or another insulator if you are not sure of its properties. This might change the antenna tuning resulting in lower performance.
