SAR Compliance Report for a Two-Coil Magnetic Charger Model: A2458 FCC ID: BCGA2458 Date of Simulation: 06/01/2020-09/15/2020 Location: Apple Inc., Cupertino, CA, USA Apple Proprietary and Confidential 2 Table of Contents 1 Introduction ................................................................................................................... 3 2 Wireless Power Transfer System ..................................................................................... 4 3 SAR Simulations Methodology ....................................................................................... 4 4 H-field Measurements .................................................................................................... 5 5 H-field Simulations ......................................................................................................... 6 6 SAR Simulations ........................................................................................................... 11 7 Summary ....................................................................................................................... 20 8 Annex A: specific information for SAR computational modelling .................................. 21 Apple Proprietary and Confidential 3 1 Introduction This report demonstrates RF exposure compliance, using SAR simulation, for WPT (Wireless Power Transfer) devices operating at 360 kHz and 326.5 kHz. This product has two WPT transmitters (one for the phone and one for the watch) which are installed in a small charging pod (“puck”) with magnets to secure the puck to the client. The charging session only occurs with the host (puck) connected to an AC power outlet. However, due to the puck being held in place by magnets, it is expected that customers may use the charging function in portable use conditions; charging the phone while making a call, or texting. All possible use cases for the two-coil WPT device, are summarized in a table -1, below. Table -1 Device Frequency (kHz) Certification Method New iPhone 360 SAR Simulation Apple watch & Legacy Apple watch 326.5 MPE Measurements New iPhone, Apple watch & Legacy Apple watch 360 & 326.5 MPE Measurements New iPhone 360 MPE Measurements Legacy iPhone, Air pods 127 MPE Measurements Legacy iPhone, Air pods, Apple watch & Legacy Apple watch 127 & 326.5 MPE Measurements Apple Proprietary and Confidential 4 Among all of the use cases, only the first one in the table, is evaluated by simulation and the rest will be evaluated using measurement. Since at the operating frequency, the near-field H field strength may exceed the 1.63 A/m limit defined in §1.1310. Therefore, as permitted by §2.1093(d)(3) and Paragraph 3.d) of KDB 680106 D01, we use SAR numerical modeling to demonstrate compliance to the 1.6 W/kg localized 1-g SAR limit, due to the unavailability of SAR measurement tools and procedures. Applying the SAR limit is also justified because: 1. The §1.1310 limits are intended for mobile whole-body exposure condition and are therefore far too stringent for local exposure conditions. In contrast, the §2.1093 local exposure limit is 20 times the whole-body SAR limit, and extremity exposure (held-in- hand) limit is 50 times higher. 2. The current H-filed limits specified in international standards (IEEE and ICNIRP) are much higher than 1.63 A/m at 360 kHz. The following sections describe the modeling, measured H-field, simulated H-field, and simulated SAR for a charging pod and a handset client. 2 Wireless Power Transfer System The phone wireless power transfer system consists of a transmitting coil with 11 turns and measures 7.5 uH nominally in free air. The receiver coil consists of 13 turns and measures 9.06 uH nominally in free air. Both coils are single layer and wound spirally. The watch wireless charger has 12 turns and measures 7.5 uH in free air, it is double layer and wound spirally. 3 SAR Simulations Methodology The following steps have been taken to show the validity of the model used for SAR simulations: 1) EM Simulation: a. Import a CAD model that represents the actual product in the simulation tool. b. Define material properties inside the product based on vendor’s inputs. c. Extract two-port network impedance matrix ([Z]) from the simulation. 2) Circuit Simulation: a. Include the impedance matrix in the wireless power transfer (WPT) circuit model. b. Run circuit simulation and extract coils’ current waveforms. 3) Field, H-field, and SAR Calculations: a. Use the current waveforms to drive the EM simulation model. b. Calculate H-field from simulation. c. Compare simulated H-field with measured H-field. d. Once a correlation is established, this model will be used for SAR simulations.
