Ublox annouced new RTK chip X20 based on the F9, very good news, means we can see FACET 2 GNSS receiver by 2025 maybe. X20 X20

Yep! We’re working with u-blox to implement the X20 in our upcoming products. Late 2025 or early 2026 is the currently timeline.

That will be more expensive I assume.

Yeah, that’s why I think they were giving out Lego rather than actual parts and documentation… really just a paper release for the expo. At the end of the day should just drop into existing designs with a BoM change. And software fiddling to accommodate new features and settings. As to cost, by th…

I’d expect it to hit the ~$100 high volume price point of the ZED’s, unless there’s a lot of completive pressure for it to be lower. TBH, I feel for u-blox right now. The GNSS world is moving so quickly in a race to features, and in lowering costs. This is great for the end consumer, I just hope …

Yes, well I think they are well positioned and staffed. Certainly a better position than cellular and broadband modem chipsets, which has broken much larger companies. uBlox has the distinct advantage of not being incompetent and directionless. Intel, for example, has been a dumpster fire. They hav…

I’m surprised that I’ve not seen any mentions, here or on other forums or websites, that the ZED-X20 apparently does not support GLONASS. I see no mention of GLONASS in u-blox’s documents for the X20. Some other vendors’ overview descriptions of their upcoming X20-based products mention GLONASS, but…

the u-block page does not indicate glonass I also did not see the Galileo E5b frequency.

@wjc , I researched this last week and came to the same conclusion as you for the X20.

…even only with Beidou alone.
…four separate frequencies with one channel even bidirectional…
this scenario worries me a lot.
Gps and Galileo are easy to knock out if there are no future investment.
