Canada (ISED)
The ATSAMR30M18A module has been certified for use in Canada under Innovation, Science, and Economic
Development (ISED, formerly Industry Canada) Radio Standards Procedure (RSP) RSP-100, Radio Standards
Specification (RSS) RSS-Gen and RSS-247. Modular approval permits the installation of a module in a host device
without the need to recertify the device.

Labeling and User Information Requirements
Labeling Requirements (from RSP-100 - Issue 12, Section 5): The host product shall be properly labeled to identify
the module within the host device.
Due to the limited module size of ATSAMR30M18A (12.7 mm x 11 mm), the Innovation, Science, and Economic
Development Canada certification number identifier is displayed only in the datasheet and packaging box label, and
it cannot be displayed on the module. Therefore, the host product must be labeled to display the Innovation, Science
and Economic Development Canada certification number of the module, preceded by the word “Contains” or similar
wording expressing the same meaning, as follows:
• For ATSAMR30M18A:
Contains IC:
20266-R30M
