1. Overview
UB4B0M is a new generation compact RTK board based on NebulasII high performance and high accuracy GNSS SoC. It supports signals including BDS B1I/B2I/B3I/B1C/B2a, GPS L1/L2/L5, GLONASS L1/L2 and Galileo E1/E5a/E5b. UB4B0M features classic small size, supports chip-level multi-path mitigation, and delivers millimeter-level carrier phase observations and centimeter-level RTK positioning. UB4B0M is particularly suitable for surveying and mapping, high-precision positioning and navigation application. UB4B0M adopts UNICORECOMM's new generation all-system multi-core high-precision SoC - NebulasII. The chip is based on the mature core technology of Nebulas baseband chip, supports 432 channels, and integrates a 600MHz ARM processor and a special high-speed floating-point processor, yielding stronger satellite navigation signal process ability. Making full use of the high-performance data sharing ability and the super simplified real-time operation system, UB4B0M optimizes the multi-dimensional RTK matrix pipeline computing, which considerably enhances the RTK process ability and realizes the multi-system multi-frequency RTK calculating (more than 32 satellites). The newly designed tri-band RTK engine of UB4B0M can process observation data from multiple frequencies of BDS, GPS, GLONASS and Galileo, which can significantly improve the RTK initialization speed, measurement accuracy and reliability in harsh signal environment like urban areas and shade of trees, and realize long-baseline centimeter-level RTK positioning.

1. RF Part
The receiver gets filtered and enhanced GNSS signal from the antenna via a coaxial cable. The RF part converts RF input signal into IF signal, and converts IF analog signal into digital signal which NebulasII (UC4C0) digital processing requires.
2. NebulasII SoC (UC4C0)
The UB4B0M incorporates the processing from the NebulasII SoC--UNICORECOMM's new generation high precision GNSS SoC with 55 nm low power design, which supports 432 channels and is equipped with a built-in UNICORECOMM's new generation baseband engine. The chip integrates a 600 MHz ARM processor and a special high-speed floating-point processor as well as a special anti-interference unit. A single NebulasII SoC can complete high-precision baseband processing and RTK positioning and heading calculation.

3. Hardware Integration Guide
3.1 Design Notes
For the normal operation of UB4B0M, the following signals need to be connected correctly:
 The module's VCC should be monotonic when powered on, the initial level should be lower than 0.4V, and the undershoot and ringing should be guaranteed 7

UB4B0M User Manual
to be within 5% VCC  Use VCC pin to provide reliable power source and earth all GND pin of the board  MMCX interface provides 4.6±0.2 V feed, and notice 50 impedance matching
for the circuit. When no antenna is connected to the port of antenna in the module, which means there is no load, use a multimeter to test and the voltage supply is DC 4.8 V ~ 5.4 V. When the RF port of the module is connected with the antenna and the working current is 30~100 mA at normal temperature, the antenna feed is DC 4.6 V ± 0.2 V.  Make sure the output of serial port 1. Users need to use this serial port to receive the positioning data and to update the software
In order to acquire satisfactory performance, the following points should also be particularly noticed:
 Power supply: Satisfactory performance cannot be achieved without a stable and low-ripple power source. The peak value of the ripple voltage should not exceed 50mVpp. In addition to adopting LDO to guarantee uninterruptible power supply, the following points should also be taken into consideration:
 Widen power supply wires or use split copper pour surface to transmit current
 Try to place LDO close to the board  Power supply wires should not pass through any high power and high
inductance devices such as magnetic coils
 UART interface ensures that the corresponding signal and baud rate of the main device are consistent with those of UB4B0M.
 Antenna wires should be as short and smooth as possible; avoid sharp angle and pay attention to impedance matching.
 Avoid wiring right beneath UB4B0M.  Keep the board away as far as possible from any high temperature airflow.

4.1 Electrostatic Protection
Many components on UB4B0M are vulnerable to electrostatic damage, which will then affect IC circuits and other components. Please take the following electrostatic protection measures before opening the anti-static blister box:
 Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may damage components. Please operate the board on the anti-static work table and at the same time wear an anti-static wristband and use conductive foam pads. If no anti-static bench is available, please wear an anti-static wristband and connect it to the metal part of the machine for anti-static protection.
 When plugging or unplugging the board, please do not touch the components on the board directly.
After taking out the board, please check the components carefully for obvious loose or damage.
4.2 Installation Guide
UB4B0M is delivered in the form of board, allowing users to assemble it flexibly according to application scenarios and market needs. The following figure shows a typical UB4B0M installation method using a set of evaluation kit (EVK). Users can also, in the same way, use other receiver casings to install.

6.1 Base Station Setting
RTK base station (fixed base station) is to install the receiver antenna at a fixed position and it will not move during the whole process. At the same time, the precise coordinates of the known measuring station and the received satellite information are directly or after being processed sent to the receiver of the rover station (pending position) in real time. The rover station receives the satellite observations as well as information from the base station to conduct the RTK positioning calculation and realize centimeter-level or millimeter-level positioning. Table 6-2 Base Station Mode shows the commands entered the receiver when precise coordinates are known.
