This is an assembled breakout board with a uBLOX MAX-M10S module and SMA female connector suitable for connecting to a suitable active patch antenna.

Available in a 3V board, or a 5V version with a regulator and level converters for use with 5V microcontrollers/supplies. Both boards are fitted with the MAX-M10S GPS module.

Select a version before adding to your cart (3V or 5V).

Suitable for HAB Usage - Max Altitude 50,000 meters / 164041 feet in Flight Mode. The board is constructed on 1.6mm PCB and features a PPS LED and a supercap for retaining settings through power cycles. 

On the header are TX, RX, TP (PPS Output),  I2C SDA/SCL and GND. For 3V versions supply is 2.7V to 3.6V. For 5V versions supply is 4.5V to 30V (Max logic level 5.5V).

The MAX-M10S delivers all the benefits of the u-blox GPS platform in a more compact form factor than ever before: high-sensitivity, intelligent power management. Supporting temperatures down to -40'C and featuring a TCXO for better power saving and quicker start-up the MAX is an ideal module.

As per the datasheet the MAX can use up to 22mA under acquisition (5mA in power save mode once tracking).

The breakout has the following dimensions : 22mmx22mmx1.6mm approximately. The default baud rate is 9600bps.

uBLOX MAX-M10S Breakout for Active Antennas 5V with Serial/I2C Level Converted
After a few failed attempts to find a concurrent GPS unit (provides GPS and Glonass and Galileo at the same time), this unit does. The Ubox 6 and 7 devices do not, its either one or the other. The only downside of this board is it has a supercapacitor to store the settings BUT it only lasts a few hours when power is removed. I removed the capacitor and use a small lithium 3volt battery with an inline schottky diode to stop the battery from being charged.

uBLOX MAX-M10S Breakout for Active Antennas 3V
Great little breakout board for the ublox receiver and contains a supercap to power it through short power interruptions enabling a fast startup each time. Green LED flashes once position acquired and the PPS output is avilable on the TP connector, which makes it great for time syncronising/disciplining connected hardware with the minimum of wires. The board provides power on the SMA antenna connector to enable use of an active antennas.

uBLOX MAX-M10S Breakout for Active Antennas 3V
I use this nice little breakout GPS board connected to a PC via a USB-serial interface. It runs very well, for the setup you have to keep a few things in mind: if you are using u-center and enable Galileo reception, it is nescessary to choose NMEA 4.1 elsewhere in the program if you want to see the satellites in Sky View or want to use the NMEA messages about Galileo. Also setup is stored in battery backed ram, which runs on a super cap, not a battery, so setup is stored only as long as the super cap has enough charge, which is a matter of hours, not days after a switch off.
