• 1 USB-C carrier board for XBee plugins
• 1 USB to USB-C cable

Description and Features: SimpleRTK2B Lite is a compact, standalone board that enables the integration of dual-frequency RTK GNSS technology to achieve centimeter-level positioning accuracy. The module is based on the high-precision u-blox ZED-F9P receiver and can be used autonomously via a USB cable or in conjunction with Ardupilot / Pixhawk flight controllers (JST connector). The board can provide up to 10 RTK positions per second, making it suitable for tasks where a high coordinate update rate is important.

The SimpleRTK2B Lite board is ideal for compact and lightweight integration of ZED-F9P into your projects: drones, robotics, ground-based or stationary positioning systems. It ensures stable operation in "Base" or "Rover" configuration, depending on the chosen application.

Good to know:

• The product is compatible with a multi-frequency GNSS antenna, but the antenna itself is not included in the kit – a multi-frequency GNSS antenna is required for correct operation.
• The module will not provide adequate performance with a standard (single-frequency) GNSS antenna – it is recommended to use a multi-frequency antenna for accurate RTK positioning.
• The board can be used as a base station or as a rover in RTK networks.
• The built-in XBee connector allows for functionality expansion with plugins: MR/LR radio, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, Dataloggers, RS232, CANbus, L-Band.
• Incompatibility: does not work with high-power XBee accessories (XLR radio and 4G NTRIP Master).
• Ardusimple plastic enclosure for Lite board is supported.

This board is recommended for engineers, integrators, and enthusiasts who seek full u-blox ZED-F9P performance in a compact form factor. It combines high positioning accuracy, XBee expansion capabilities, and convenient connectivity via USB-C or JST connector for integration with popular flight controllers.

Product Change History:

• AS-RTK2B-LIT-L1L2-SMA-00: initial version
• AS-RTK2B-LIT-L1L2-SMA-01: changed adapter board from Mini-USB to USB-C

If you need precise RTK positioning in a compact module from ArduSimple with XBee expansion capabilities and convenient interfaces for integration into drones or other platforms – the SimpleRTK2B Lite ZED-F9P is an optimal choice.
