The AU30Q is an automotive grade UWB module which conforms to the Car Connectivity Consortium specification, in a compact and unified form factor of 12.0mm × 25.0mm × 2.45mm, making it an ideal UWB solution for size sensitive applications, helping customers reduce product size and optimize application design cost.
The surface mount technology enhances durability and robustness, and the LGA package ensures the module can be easily embedded into size-constrained applications to provide reliable connectivity. The advanced package allows for the strict requirements on cost and efficiency of large-scale automated manufacturing.
Designed with a reliable SPI interface to provide UWB Location capability, AU30Q achieves low-power, high-precision location and data transmission. It can be used in SS-TWR, DS-TWR, TDoA and PDoA systems to locate assets to an accuracy of 10cm. Coupled with its compact size and extended temperature range, the AU30Q module can meet the design requirements of digital car key applications in the automotive industry.
