Overview

The NEO-6M GPS Module (V2) is a high-performance, low-power GPS receiver based on u-blox NEO-6M chipset, providing accurate positioning, navigation, and timing data. With a built-in ceramic antenna and external antenna support, it offers reliable satellite tracking for drones, vehicle trackers, smartwatches, and IoT devices.

This module supports multiple satellite systems (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo) and features EEPROM backup for fast hot starts, making it ideal for real-time tracking and geofencing applications.

Description
