2. GENERAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Overview

The SE868SY-D module, the latest addition to the xE868 family, is a multi-frequency and

multi-constellation GNSS receiver.

The SE868SY-D product uses the two GNSS bands L1 and L5 to achieve sub-meter

accuracy and reduce the multipath effects that are common in urban canyons.

The SE868SY-D operates at 1.8 V, minimizing power consumption even below L1-only

products and making it ideal for battery powered and wearable device applications.

Product Variants and Supported Satellite Systems

The SE868SY-D is available in two different ordering part numbers:

•Standard

•Low-power (requiring an external 0.8 V voltage supply on pin27)

Table 2, below lists the supported satellite systems, for both variants.

Magnetic Field Immunity

Since the SE868SY-D uses an embedded MRAM as an NVM (Non-Volatile Memory) for its

program code and data storage, the customer should consider the environment magnetic

field strength for good retention performance as shown in Table 5.
