Applicant/Grantee Anaren Microwave, Inc. FCC ID: X7J-A11113001 Section 15.212 Modular Transmitters Request for Modular Approval Request for Limited Modular Approval Requirements EUT Conditions Comply (Y/N) Single Modular Approval Requirements 1 The radio elements of the modular transmitter must have their own shielding. The physical crystal and tuning capacitors may be located external to the shielded radio elements. The Anaren modular transmitter has a cover over the radio elements, with the antenna or antenna connector located outside of the cover YES 2 The modular transmitter must have buffered modulation/data inputs (if such inputs are provided) to ensure that the module will comply with Part 15 requirements under conditions of excessive data rates or over-modulation. The Anaren modular transmitter has built-in buffering on both transmit and receive paths, as well as hardware flow control YES 3 The modular transmitter must have its own power supply regulation. The module has internal regulation to allow an input voltage range of 2.2 to 3.6 volts. YES 4 The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna and transmission system requirements of Sections 15.203, 15.204(b) and 15.204(c). The antenna must either be permanently attached or employ a “unique” antenna coupler (at all connections between the module and the antenna, including the cable). The “professional installation” provision of Section 15.203 is not applicable to modules but can apply to limited modular approvals under paragraph (b) of this section. The Anaren modular transmitter uses one of two methods to employ a unique coupler for all connections between the module and antenna: 1.) Permanently connected internal antenna 2.) U.FL unique coupling connector YES 5 The modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the module must not be inside another device during testing for compliance with Part 15 requirements. Unless the transmitter module will be battery powered, it must comply with the AC line conducted requirements found in Section 15.207. AC or DC power lines and data input/output lines connected to the module must not contain ferrites, unless they will be marketed with the module (see Section 15.27(a)). The length of these lines shall be the length typical of actual use or, if that length is unknown, at least 10 centimeters to The modular device was tested in a stand-alone configuration with the help of another board which supplied only physical support and power connections YES insure that there is no coupling between the case of the module and supporting equipment. Any accessories, peripherals, or support equipment connected to the module during testing shall be unmodified and commercially available (see Section 15.31(i)). 6 The modular transmitter must be equipped with either a permanently affixed label or must be capable of electronically displaying its FCC identification number. (A) If using a permanently affixed label, the modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC identification number, and, if the FCC identification number is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: XYZMODEL1” or “Contains FCC ID: XYZMODEL1.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. (B) If the modular transmitter uses an electronic display of the FCC identification number, the information must be readily accessible and visible on the modular transmitter or on the device in which it is installed. If the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains FCC certified transmitter module(s).” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The user manual must include instructions on how to access the electronic display. A copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. The Anaren modular transmitter is marked with a unique FCC identification number. See drawing included with the application for location of the marking. Instructions are given to the end user in the module data sheet that if the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device must also display a label referring to the enclosed module YES 7 The modular transmitter must comply with any specific rules or operating requirements that ordinarily apply to a complete transmitter and the manufacturer must provide adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements. A copy of these Please refer to the "OEM User's Manual" supplied separately. YES instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. 8 The EUT meets the RF Exposure requirements. The EUT meets the RF Exposure requirements. YES A limited modular approval may be granted for single or split modular transmitters that do not comply with all of the above requirements, e.g., shielding, minimum signaling amplitude, buffered modulation/data inputs, or power supply regulation, if the manufacturer can demonstrate by alternative means in the application for equipment authorization that the modular transmitter meets all the applicable Part 15 requirements under the operating conditions in which the transmitter will be used. Limited modular approval also may be granted in those instances where co…

Anaren Microwave, Inc. 6635 Kirkville Road East Syracuse, NY 13057 Phone: 315 432 8909 Fax: 315 432 9121 www.anaren.com A2530R24A & A2530R24C Radio Module Theory of Operation The A2530R24A and A2530R24C modules operate in the global 2.4 GHz ISM/SRD frequency band. They can be used to implement a variety of networks, including point to point, point to multi-point, peer to peer and mesh networks. Both modules operate in a similar manner except the antenna part where A2530R24A communicates through a built-in antenna, and A2530R24C communicates through an external antenna attached to a U.FL antenna port. The description of the functional blocks is given as follows:  Antenna o The antenna couples energy between the air and the module. The integral antenna and the external monopole antenna, both centered at 2441.75 MHz, provide a near omni- directional antenna pattern with high efficiency such that the application will work equally well in any direction. Note that the end radiation pattern depends not only on the antenna, but also the ground plane, enclosure and installation environment.  Matching & Filtering o The matching provides the correct loading of the transmit amplifier to achieve the highest output power as well as the correct loading for the receive LNA to achieve the best sensitivity. o Filtering removes spurious signals to comply with regulatory intentional radiator requirements, provides reduced susceptibility to power supply and digital noise, and filters out RF and high frequency noise from the communication data and control link.  TX/RX Chain o TX/RX chain handles transmitting and receiving of the communication data based on the radio register settings. It involves the coordination of several blocks including modulator, demodulator, AGC control, frequency synthesizer and frame control.  Crystal o Crystal oscillator provides the necessary clock reference for the whole module operation. The A2530R24A and A2530R24C modules use a 32 MHz crystal.  Power Management o Power management ensures a stable supply for the internal functions, as well as providing means for a low power sleep mode.  CPU and Memory o The 8051 CPU core used in the CC2530 device is a single-cycle 8051-compatible core. It has three different memory-access buses (SFR, DAT and CODE/XDATA) with single- cycle access to SFR, DATA, and the main SRAM. It also includes a debug interface and an 18-input extended interrupt unit. Anaren Microwave, Inc. 6635 Kirkville Road East Syracuse, NY 13057 Phone: 315 432 8909 Fax: 315 432 9121 www.anaren.com o The memory arbiter connects the CPU and DMA controller with the physical memories and all peripherals through the SFR bus. o The 8-BK SRAM maps to the DATA memory space and to parts of the XDATA memory spaces. This is an ultralow-power SRAM that retains its contents even when the digital part us powered off. o 256 KB flash block provides in-circuit programmable non-volatile program memory for the device, and maps into the CODE and XDATA memory spaces. In addition to holding the program code, it also allows the application to save data that must be preserved such that it is available after restarting the device.  I/O Controller o The I/O controller is responsible for all general-purpose I/O pins. The CPU can configure whether peripheral modules control certain pins or they are under software control, and if so, whether they are configured as input or output.
