From Afar to the Millimeter

MOJANDA 330 — An Automotive-Grade BeiDou Chip Built for Mass Production

At the conference, Li Ke, Chairman and CEO of MCT, officially launched the automotive-grade BeiDou chip MOJANDA 330.

Li Ke stated that the launch of MOJANDA 330 is not a technology showcase aimed at visibility, but rather a milestone release by MCT following the completion of thorough engineering validation and the achievement of mass production readiness.

As MCT’s first BeiDou chip product, MOJANDA 330 has been deeply involved in engineering validation within automotive-grade application scenarios since its development phase, with design-win validation completed. Volume production ramp-up is currently proceeding according to plan.

Throughout this process, MCT systematically integrated the automotive-grade mass production experience accumulated through the SUMACO IMU product series and the system-level engineering insights built up through the proprietary multi-source fusion algorithm platform REVENTADOR with real-world validation results from MOJANDA 330, enabling these learnings to feed back into chip architecture decisions and engineering trade-offs. This approach ensured that MOJANDA 330 achieved the stability and maturity required for large-scale deployment well before its official launch.

MOJANDA 330 is built on a fully proprietary MCT architecture, comprehensively optimized across compute capacity, system stability, and engineering adaptability to deliver sufficient processing power for complex positioning and multi-source fusion algorithms. The chip is paired with a proprietary positioning algorithm suite that has been continuously refined on key metrics such as fix rate and positioning accuracy, meeting the demands of long-term operation in real-world mass production environments.

On the reliability front, MOJANDA 330 has achieved AEC-Q100 automotive-grade certification and is designed for demanding application environments, providing a critical foundation for the large-scale deployment of BeiDou technology in intelligent driving and other high-reliability scenarios.


More Than a Chip

The RMS System-Level Capability Matrix on Full Display

In addition to MOJANDA 330, MCT also presented its complete product and technology portfolio for the first time at this event, comprising:

  • Multiple BeiDou chip products including MOJANDA 320 and MOJANDA 321;
  • The MOJANDA GNSS module series, covering multiple application tiers;
  • The SUMACO IMU product series, designed for high-reliability attitude sensing applications;
  • And the proprietary multi-source fusion algorithm platform, REVENTADOR.

Together, these BeiDou chips, GNSS modules, IMU products, and proprietary algorithm capabilities form MCT’s RMS product portfolio matrix. Built on the core philosophy of “data-driven, hardware-software integration,” the matrix unifies chip-level capability, component-level sensing, and system-level algorithms through co-design and collaborative optimization. What MCT delivers to customers is a complete integrated navigation system solution for vehicle and complex equipment applications — not individual components or standalone modules.

Through the coordinated integration of its system-level architecture, RMS is better positioned to support demanding applications such as intelligent driving that require exceptional stability and reliability, providing a technically sound, production-ready, and continuously evolvable foundation for large-scale deployment.
