MK8000PATR7.9: A High - Power UWB (Ultra - Wideband) Ranging and Positioning Module Based on Domestic MK8000 Chip
MK8000PATR7.9 is a high - power UWB (Ultra - Wideband) ranging and positioning module based on the domestic MK8000 chip. It integrates an LNA (Low - Noise Amplifier) to achieve omnidirectional ultra - long - range TOF (Time of Flight) positioning capability over 300 meters. Its operating frequency band covers 7737.2 - 8237.2MHz, complying with the FIRA alliance standards. It is specifically designed for complex industrial scenarios and supports electronic fence management and control, precise elevator floor ranging, and three - dimensional space positioning.
Core Advantages and Features
Extremely Long - Range and High - Precision Positioning
- With a peak power of 14dBm and LNA signal enhancement, its ability to penetrate obstacles is improved by 40%. In open environments, it can achieve stable ranging over 300 meters (with an actual measured accuracy of ±10cm).
- The TOF (Time of Flight) algorithm is resistant to multipath interference, making it suitable for metal - intensive scenarios such as steel plants and warehouses.
Ultra - Low Power Consumption Design
- The receiving current is only 4mA, and in sleep mode, it has a 5μA - level standby current. This can increase the battery life of battery - powered devices by 3 times (such as AGV tags and inspection wristbands).
Industrial - Grade Reliability
- It can operate in a wide temperature range of -40℃~85℃ and has passed 10G vibration and 85% humidity tests, making it suitable for harsh environments such as mines and ports.
Fast - Integration Interface
- It uses UART serial communication and an open - source SDK, supporting secondary development and seamless integration into IoT platforms (such as RTLS systems in smart factories).
