The GNSS add-on interface suits drones, autonomous systems, and technologies needing positioning and reliable signal performance.
MIKROE has launched Mosaic Click, a compact add-on board designed for precision navigation and location-based applications. MIKROE’s mikroBUS-enabled Click board family includes over 1,750 boards. Mosaic Click features the Mosaic-X5, a small global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver from Septentrio.
It is well-suited for developers designing drones, autonomous vehicles, or products requiring GNSS accuracy and robust signal performance. Researchers, educators, and engineers in mass-market applications can also benefit from its advanced features.
Mosaic Click is designed for low power consumption and offers various interface options, including USB and UART communication, and a microSD card for external data logging. It is ideal for mass-market applications and well-suited for robotics, autonomous systems, and other technologies requiring precise positioning and navigation.
Fully compatible with the mikroBUS socket, Mosaic Click can be used on any host system that supports the mikroBUS standard. It includes the mikroSDK open-source libraries, providing great flexibility for evaluation and customization. Like all recent Click boards, Mosaic Click features the ClickID technology, allowing the host system to detect and identify the add-on board automatically.
The company claims the mikroBUS is an add-on board socket standard designed for expandability with minimal pin usage. By integrating mikroBUS into your design, you gain access to thousands of compatible Click boards. These include sensors, wireless transceivers, audio amplifiers, and LED displays.
Comments Nebojsa Matic, CEO of MIKROE: “The Mosaic-X5 stands out for its multi-band and multi-constellation tracking ability, ensuring robust and comprehensive global coverage. It features Septentrio’s AIM+ technology for superior interference mitigation, enabling it to counteract a wide range of signal disruptions.”
