It's a sm�´l world!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe sm�´l ZOE-M8Q is a high accuracy, miniaturized, GNSS board that is perfect for applications that don't possess a lot of space. The on-board ZOE-M8Q is a 72-channel GNSS receiver, meaning it can receive signals from the GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo constellations. This increases precision and decreases lock time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo minimize the current draw as much as possible, the sm�´l ZOE-M8Q can be powered down completely when you're not using it. The sm�´l ZOE-M8Q GPS is also equipped with an on-board rechargeable battery that provides power to the RTC on the ZOE-M8Q. This reduces the time-to-first fix from a cold start (~30s) to a hot start (~1s). The battery will maintain RTC and GNSS orbit data without being connected to power for up to five hours. The battery is recharged whenever the sm�´l 3.3V rail is active.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSince the ZOE-M8Q is a tiny GNSS receiver and to minimize its footprint, we've added a u.FL connector to allow the use of both large standard ceramic antennas as well as very small chip scale antennas. 3.3V is provided on the u.FL, so you can use an active antenna if you want to.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhy not pair the sm�´l ZOE-M8Q with a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/18619\"\u003esm�´l ESP32 Processor Board\u003c\/a\u003e to create a very small USB GNSS system?

Designed to be both physically small and to have the smallest possible current draw, sm�´l is the perfect choice for applications like wildlife tracking or discrete long-term monitoring. sm�´l boards are designed to stack one on top of the other, using 16-way 0.5mm-pitch Flexible Printed Circuits (FPCs) to provide the interconnect from one board to the next.
