Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. THIS DEVICE MUST BE INSTALLED IN A LOCATION THAT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC. INSTALL THE DEVICE SO THAT THE ANTENNA IS MORE THAN 20 CM FROM UNSUSPECTING PERSONNEL. FAILURE TO INSTALL THIS DEVICE AS DESCRIBED WILL RESULT IN A FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH FCC RULES FOR RF EXPOSURE AND IS DISCOURAGED. ONLY ANTENNAS APPROVED WITH THE DEVICE MAY BE USED. THIS DEVICE MAY NOT BE CO-LOCATED WITH OTHER TRANSMITTERS WITHOUT FURTHER APPROVAL BY THE FCC. The device is compliant with 47 CFR 15.519(a)(1): “A UWB device operating under the provisions of this section shall transmit only when it is sending information to an associated receiver. The UWB intentional radiator shall cease transmission within 10 seconds unless it receives an acknowledgement from the associated receiver that its transmission is being received. An acknowledgement of reception must continue to be received by the UWB intentional radiator at least every 10 seconds or the UWB device must cease transmitting.” Note: Any intentional or unintentional modifications not expressly approved by Staccato Communications or the FCC will void the warranty of the device and the authority of the user to operate the device. ©2006 Staccato Communications, Inc.

SC3221R-C Theory of Operation SC3221R-C – Wireless WCSP HWA Dongle based upon Certified Wireless USB From inception, California headquartered Staccato Communications has dedicated itself to the UWB market by driving global standards activities, creating industry momentum, and engaging in cutting-edge technological development. Staccato™ is recognized for being the leader in single-chip, all CMOS complete solutions based on the WiMedia Common Radio Platform for Certified Wireless USB. Staccato’s 110nm highly-integrated digital CMOS silicon includes RF, Digital Baseband, Media Access Controller (MAC), Memory, 32-bit RISC Processor, Encryption Engine and various I/O including USB 2.0 Host, USB 2.0 Device and SDIO 1.1 Device. Staccato is enabling the personal computer, consumer electronic and mobile device industries with high-speed wireless personal area network (WPAN) solutions optimized for cost, power consumption and form-factor. The SC3221R-C product incorporates Staccato’s Ripcord™ SC3500P series silicon with pin-out for Certified Wireless USB Host Wire Adapter (HWA). This product is to be used with a Certified Wireless USB Device Wire Adapter (DWA) or native Device and enables the host system (such as notebooks) to access legacy USB devices (such as printers, hard-disk drivers, digital still cameras, and personal media players) wirelessly at data rates of up to 480Mbps, according to the specifications defined by the USB Implementers Forum. SC3221R-C is compliant with WiMedia PHY specification v1.1, and operates in the 3168-4752MHz spectrum. The SC3500P series silicon also supports Certified Wireless USB DWA products providing end-to-end wireless connectivity between the host system and legacy USB devices.. The spirit of wire adapters is to enable fast deployment of Certified Wireless USB by allowing minimal software/firmware modifications, primarily to the host PC. Staccato’s numerous reference design kits include working hardware samples, schematics, PCB Gerber layout files, bill-of-materials, design guides, production test guides, HWA and DWA Windows XP drivers and utilities, and a sample end user manual in order to accelerate time to market. The reference designs are supplemented by Staccato’s UWB University and Team Staccato Partner Program. UWB University offers a free online educational review of the most relevant industry topics for engineers and business executives in the Certified Wireless USB, Bluetooth 3.0 and IP-over-UWB arenas. The Team Staccato partner program provides customers with total solutions through alliances with industry leaders throughout the value chain, including suppliers of UWB components, software, test equipment and services, and design services. Staccato’s Ripcord SC3500P series silicon transmits WiMedia UWB signals that have instantaneous bandwidth (BW) greater than 500MHz or fractional occupied BW greater than 20 percent as defined by the FCC Report and Order for UWB Communications. Band Group 1 is divided into 3 individual bands, each 528MHz wide, with center frequencies of 3432MHz, 3960MHz and 4488MHz. Staccato’s silicon transmits either by band switching between the 3 bands or remaining stationary in each band, known as TFI or FFI respectively. Staccato’s silicon occupies approximately 1584MHz while band switching in TFI mode (528MHz instantaneously) and the average transmitted power is approximately -9.3dBm (or - 14dBm when stationary operating in FFI mode). FCC Part 15 regulation in Subpart F, Section 15.517 and 15.519 specifies maximum average Equivalent Iso-tropically Radiated Power (EIRP) of – 41.3dBm (53.9dBuV/m) measured using a resolution bandwidth of 1MHz. EIRP in dBm coverts to a field strength, in dBuV/m at 3 meters, by adding 95.2dB. One hundred twenty two modulated Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) sub-carriers comprise the 528MHz wide signal of each band.
