ZED-F9T-Data sheet
1 Functional description
1.1 Overview
The ZED-F9T is a multi-band GNSS module offering 5 ns (1-sigma) timing accuracy with
unparalleled low power consumption.
The ZED-F9T incorporates the u-blox F9 multi-band platform in a small surface-mount device with
a form factor of 22 x 17 mm.
