SAM-M8Q is a highly accurate, miniature board with a 72-channel GNSS receiver that can receive signals from GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo. It communicates using SPI / I2C or UART. It has a Qwiic connector. On board is a rechargeable RTC battery which reduces time-to-first-fix. The U-blox module can be configured through a program called U-center. It has the possibility of setting various functions, such as baud rate, geofencing, update rates, spoofing detection, external interrupts, SBAS / D-GPS, etc. The supply voltage is 3.3 V.
