u-blox EVK-8/EVK-M8 GNSS Evaluation Kits
u-blox EVK-8/EVK-M8 GNSS Evaluation Kits enable simple evaluation of the high-performance u‑blox eight and u‑blox M8 positioning technology. These evaluation kits feature a built-in USB interface that provides both power supply and high-speed data transfer, eliminating the need for an external power supply. The EVK-8/EVK-M8 kits support u-blox AssistNow GNSS online, offline, and autonomously. These evaluation kits have an LED to indicate GNSS operation, a reset button to allow restart, and an SMA connector for connection to the antenna or simulator. The EVK-8/EVK-M8 kits include a 14-pin connector for access to interface pins and current measurement and a 9-pin D-SUB female connector for a standard RS232 interface.
