Module Certification Detail
The CYWM6935PAEC Radio Module is a device that
transmits and receives radio signals in accordance with the
spectrum regulations for the 2.4-GHz unlicensed frequency
range. Regional regulatory agency approval may be required
to operate CYWM6935PAEC throughout the world.
Cypress Semiconductor Corporation has obtained regulatory
approvals for the CYWM6935PAEC to be used in specific
countries. CYWM6935PAEC was approved under the
“Modular Approval (MA) to the OEM.
The MA Grant provides that device manufacturers who incor-
porate CYWM6935PAEC as tested and approved can be
relieved from having to perform the Radio Regulatory certifi-
cation portion of the respective agency certification.
The MA Grant is valid only in countries
[1.]
that recognize the
MA Grant certification process; the USA, Canada, Belgium,
Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Italy, Netherlands,
Spain, Sweden, UK.
4.1
Eligibility Requirements for Regulatory Mod-
ule Approval
In order to be able to take advantage of Cypress’s modular
certification in an end product, the following must be ensured:
1. Correct Application.
2. Correct Installation.
3. Correct labeling.
4.1.1
Correct Application:
There are two types of application considered for
CYWM6935PAEC modules. The application types are defined
below:
a. Fixed Application:
Module is in a permanent location and has at least 2m
separation from the human body.
b. Mobile Application:
Module can be relocated and will have at least 20 cm
separation from the human body.
4.1.2
Correct Installation:
— Modules cannot be modified in any way.
— Modules must be used only in the operating range spec-
ified in the data sheets.
— Modules cannot be located within 20 cm of another in-
tentional radiator in the system.
—
It is recommended to use Antenna-A or equivalent. The
antenna gain and form factor should be equivalent to
Antenna-A.
— Must guarantee that end user cannot easily change an-
tenna.
Note:
Sidestepping these requirements is possible with
additional testing and/or recertification. However, modular
approval would no longer apply.
4.1.3
Correct Labeling:
If an end device containing a WirelessUSB CYWM6935PAEC
Radio Module will be sold or used in the USA, the enclosure
of the product must display a label with the following basic
elements:
If an end device containing a WirelessUSB CYWM6935PAEC
Radio Module will be sold or used in Europe, the enclosure of
the product must display a label with the following basic
elements:
If an end device containing WirelessUSB CYWM6935PAEC
Radio Module will be sold or used in Canada, the enclosure of
the product must display a label with the following basic
elements:
As of March 2006, Japan does not recognize the “Modular
Approval” certification. Regulatory certification for Japan
(TELEC) must be acquired through typical approval proce-
dures. These approvals are the sole responsibility of the OEM.
Note:
Even with modular approval, the end device still has to
be tested for digital emissions compliance with all agencies as
an electronic device. The modular approval only eliminates the
need to test for compliance on RF transmissions.
4.2
User Guide Information
Electronic device manufacturers using Cypress’s Modular
Approval are required to follow the below mentioned labeling
practice on the container in which the device is marketed or in
the product user’s guide. This should be in accompaniment
with other regulatory information. The text may be disbursed
according to language or geographic regions if desired, but the
exact text shown below must be maintained.
4.2.1
