ARK Electronics has launched the ARK DAN GPS, a U.S.-built dual-band L1/L5 GNSS and industrial magnetometer unit. The ARK DAN is designed for dependable navigation and orientation in professional drone and autonomous platform applications.
Incorporating the u-blox DAN-F10N receiver, the system delivers resilient signal acquisition across L1, L5, E5a, and B2a frequency bands. Its integrated SAW-LNA-SAW design ensures robust immunity to interference, while proprietary dual-band multipath mitigation enhances positional reliability even in complex environments.
An onboard ST IIS2MDC magnetometer provides stable heading data, complemented by a compact 4.4 cm × 4.4 cm × 1.3 cm form factor for flexible installation. The Pixhawk-standard UART/I2C interface and 6-pin JST-GH connector simplify integration into existing flight control architectures.
With an efficient 5 V power draw averaging just 25 mA and a visual GPS fix indicator, the NDAA-compliant ARK DAN GPS combines performance, precision, and compliance in a lightweight, 25 g package.
