Telit Cinterion SE868K5-RTK GNSS LGA (L1+L5+RTK)
The Telit Cinterion SE868K5-RTK in LGA format is a high-performance dual-frequency GNSS positioning module, part of the Telit Cinterion xE868 series. It supports L1/E1 and L5/E5 frequencies for precise positioning and is equipped with RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) technology, enabling centimeter-level accuracy in real time.
The RTK system consists of two main components:
• Base station – a fixed reference point, which is a receiver located at a known position.
• Rover – a mobile device equipped with the Telit Cinterion SE868K5-RTK module, using GNSS combined with RTK correction via the base station. This can include, for example, an autonomous agricultural machine or a drone.
The base station processes signals from GNSS satellites and calculates corrections, which it sends to the rover in real time to enhance its positional accuracy.
The Telit Cinterion SE868K5-RTK supports data output via UART, I2C, and SPI interfaces. An integrated IMU sensor (gyroscope and accelerometer) enables position calculation even in the absence of a GNSS signal, such as in tunnels. The built-in PGA (programmable gain amplifier) optimizes signal amplification, ensuring efficient operation even with passive antennas.
The module features high thermal resistance from -40°C to +85°C, making it reliable even in demanding conditions. Its compact size of 11 x 11 mm allows integration into smaller devices.
It is an ideal choice for applications requiring high positioning accuracy, fast response times, and low power consumption in a compact design.
