FCC WARNING This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: qReorient or relocate the receiving antenna. qIncrease the separation between the equipment and the receiver. qConnect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that which the receiver is connected. qConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. 3 Contents 1.

TCB RF Exposure Review Procedure Statement FCC ID:IMK-HRFCF1 Transmitter Category Device Type Product Category Approval and Review Procedures Used Specific Procedures: V Wireless LAN Transceiver Part 15 Fixedand MobileTransmitters Section F SP(1), SP(3), SP(5), SP(7), SP(8) and SP(9) Grant Condition : The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antennaor transmitter. End-users and installers must be provided with antenna installation instructions and transmitteroperating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance SP1 TCB limited to review the device with EIRP not to exceed 200mW for 2.4GHz Spread Spectrum Mobile Device. The Max. measured conducted RF output is0.074W @2402MHz ( Page 22 of test report). Antenna is attached to the transceiverat the manufacture facilities. EUT is equipped with standard 0dBi gain antenna withoption to have 1dBi gain antenna. No consideration in Duty Cycle. SP3 Warning statement on Page 52 of user manual to indicate separation distance of 20cmmust be maintained during the operation to ensure RF exposure requirement. SP5 As indicated in the technical description and theory of operation, EUT can only operate in 2.4 GHz band. SP7 End user has no need to integrate Antenna . Antenna is attached to the transceiver. This transceiver is a Compact Flash Card to be inserted directly to PDA device. SP8 Page 52 of user manual included such RF exposure language. SP9 Grant condition has been reviewed by TCB. Grant conditions are applicable to the device. Reviewed by Mike KuoCompliance Certification ServicesApril 5, 2001

  Document # 610.004x PRODUCT: The product is a FHSS WLAN adapter operating in the 2.4-2.4835 GHz band with a nominal TX output power of 100mW. It is an enclosed circuit board assembly with a 50-pin data / power connector and a coaxial antenna connector. USER CONNECTIONS: Data and power are provided through the 50-pin connector. A unique antenna connector is provided for attaching the antenna to the adapter. INTERNAL CLOCK AND RF OSCILLATOR FREQUENCIES: Processor ASIC 24 MHz, 32 kHz RF synthesizer reference 4MHz TX frequency 1201-1240MHz, 500kHz steps RX frequency 1145.75-1184.75MHz, 500kHz steps transmit LO, transmit and receive range 2402-2480MHz, 1MHz steps receive LO 2291.5-2369.5MHz, 1MHz steps receive IF 110.5MHz, 1MHz BW SIGNAL FLOW: Data is transferred through the 50-pin connector to the processor. The processor ASIC also contains the baseband radio functions, A/D and D/A converters, transceiver control functions and memory interface. In transmit, the synthesizer tunes from 1201 to 1240MHz in 500kHz steps. It is part of an integrated 2.4GHz transceiver IC, using an external VCO and buffer, loop, and modulation filters. The reference for the synthesizer is a 4 MHz processor ASIC output derived from the 24 MHz oscillator. The VCO is directly FM modulated with –20dB BW of less than 1MHz. The transceiver IC doubles the modulated external VCO and sends the signal to a bandpass filter, power amplifier, transmit / receive switch, lowpass filter, and antenna connector. In receive, the synthesizer tunes from 1145.75 to 1184.75MHz in 500kHz steps. The receive signal path is from the antenna connector, through the lowpass filter and transmit / receive switch shared with the transmitter, an LNA, an image reject filter, and to the integrated transceiver IC. It is mixed down to IF by the receive LO which is generated inside the transceiver IC by doubling the VCO output. The IF output of the mixer goes off chip for bandpass filtering, back on for additional amplification, off again for more filtering and then back on chip for limiting and FM quadrature demodulation. The demodulated signal is amplified and filtered at baseband before being converted to a bit stream in the processor ASIC. There are two shielded areas. The VCO and buffer are under one shield, and the balance of the RF is under the other shield. RF filtering is distributed at each stage with final TX filtering between the transmit/receive switch and the antenna.
