The LEA-5M is a highly cost-effective stand-alone GPS receiver module, which offers numerous connectivity options in a thin 17 x 22.4 x 2.4 mm package. The LEA-5M provides lower power consumption and lower cost than the LEA-5Q.

The LEA-5M features u-blox' SuperSense^® Indoor GPS technology that offers unmatched tracking performance in harsh signal environments such as parking lots and dense urban environments.

The module's architecture further ensures costs are kept at a minimum by using a crystal instead of a TCXO and replacing a costly Flash EPROM by an internal Read-Only Memory (ROM) in the GPS baseband chip.
