Product description
The ZED-F9H module is designed to provide best possible
heading information to applications where precise attitude isof greatest importance.
The ZED-F9H acts as an accompanying module, andrequires a ZED-F9P module to be mounted on the samevehicle. In this setup, ZED-F9P provides the precise GNSS
position, and at the same time acts as a moving base to theZED-F9H module, which in turn outputs the precise attitude
information.
As the heading information is based on GNSS it does not require pre-calibration, thus ensuring easy production, integration and operation. The precise heading information is always
available, even in stand-still situations.
ZED-F9H is designed to lower the system cost for a headingapplication and comes with minimal e-BOM. It is well-suitedfor mass market adoption, thanks to its small package size,
light weight, and low power consumption.
u-blox modules are manufactured in ISO/TS 16949 certified
sites and are fully tested on a system level. Qualification tests
are performed as stipulated in the ISO16750 standard: “Roadvehicles – Environmental conditions and testing for electricaland electronic equipment”.
