SE878K3-A

Multi-Constellation Smart Antenna GNSS

The SE878K3-A is a plug-and-play multi-constellation receiver with integrated high-sensitivity 17 x 17 mm patch antenna, SAW filter, additional LNA, flash memory, GNSS core, RTC and TCXO.

  • Standard variant with integrated 17 x 17 x 4 mm SMT antenna
  • Additional LNA and SAW filter
  • SMT mounting not requiring holes on host PCB
  • Supports ephemeris file injection (A-GPS)
  • Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) compliant
  • Embedded RF switch to support external antennas as well
Telit sensors offer accurate positioning with a multi-constellation GNSS.

Product Description

The SE878K3-A is a plug-and-play multi-constellation receiver with integrated high-sensitivity 17 x 17 mm patch antenna, SAW filter, additional LNA, flash memory, GNSS core, RTC and TCXO. It uses Telit’s “cavity-like” PCB package with an optimized RF path for standard SMT mounting that does not constrain the host PCB, minimizing the antenna detuning. It supports GPS, QZSS, GLONASS, Beidou and Galileo.

Form Factor Family

The SE878 sub-compact form factor is a 18 x 18 mm, 32-pad QFN package. Models in the family present a depth dimension of 6.1 mm due to integrated antenna.
