Reference Design

Manthink-OM841-RF-Chip-Module-04

Typical application design

As shown in the preceding figure, PIN17 and PIN16 are UART interfaces and need to be connected to the customer’s MCU. The user can reset the module through the RESET. PIN9 is the AUX pin, which is used to output the state of the module, the customer can choose to connect the LED to show whether the current module is busy. If you need the library files of schematic diagram and PCB diagram, please contact the technical support of ManThink.

Antenna wiring

As shown in the preceding figure, the antenna design can refer to the preceding figure.

The detailed rules are as follows:

  1. Cr2,Lr1 and Cr1 form a π-type impedance matching network, which can select vertical and horizontal topologies. Its purpose is to reserve parameter values for fine tuning capacitance and inductance, by default, Lr1 is welded with a resistance of 0Ω, while Cr1 and Cr2 are not welded.
  2. Two-layer PCB, FR4 material, 1 ounce copper thickness, suggested theoretical line width is 20mil
  3. In addition, it should be noted that the impedance matching of the interface is 50Ω.

FCC STATEMENT

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference, and
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Warning: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE: 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:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
  • This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
  • This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20mm between the radiator & your body.

List of applicable FCC rules
FCCPart15SubpartC15.247&15.207&15.209

Specific operational use conditions

  • Operation Frequency: 902-928MHz
  • Number of Channel: 8 Channels
  • Modulation Type: LoRa
  • Antenna Type: Cylindrical antenna
  • Antenna Gain(Peak): 2.18 dBi (Provided by customer)

The module can be used for mobile applications with a maximum 2.18dBi antenna. The host manufacturer installing this module into their product must ensure that the final composite product complies with the FCC requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the FCC rules, including the transmitter operation. The host manufacturer has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module. The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.

Limited module procedures

Not applicable. The module is a Single module and complies with the requirement of FCC Part 15.212.

Trace antenna designs

Not applicable. The module has its own antenna, and doesn’t need a host’s printed board microstrip trace antenna etc.

RF exposure considerations
The module must be installed in the host equipment such that at least 20mm is maintained between the antenna and users’ body; and if RF exposure statement or module layout is changed, then the host product manufacturer required to take responsibility of the module through a change in FCC ID or new application. The FCC ID of the module cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the host manufacturer will be responsible for re- evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.

Antennas

  • Antenna Specification are as follows:
  • Antenna Type: Cylindrical antenna
  • Antenna Gain(Peak):2.18 dBi (Provided by customer)
  • This device is intended only for host manufacturers under the following conditions:
  • The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna;
  • The module shall be only used with the External antenna(s) that has been originally tested and certified with this module.
  • The antenna must be either permanently attached or employ a ‘unique’ antenna coupler.

As long as the conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the host manufacturer is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).

Label and compliance information

Host product manufacturers need to provide a physical or e-label stating “Contains FCC ID 2ATLHOM841 With their finished product.

Information on test modes and additional testing requirements

  • Operation Frequency:902~928MHz
  • Number of Channel:8 Channels
  • Modulation Type: LoRa
  • Antenna Type: Cylindrical antenna
  • Antenna Gain(Peak):2.18 dBi (Provided by customer)

Host manufacturer must preform test of radiated & conducted emission and spurious emission, etc according to the actual test modes for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, as well as for multiple simultaneously transmitting modules or other transmitters in a host product.
Only when all the test results of test modes comply with FCC requirements, then the end product can be sold legally.

Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer
The modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for FCC Part 15 Subpart C 15.247 & 15.207 & 15.209 and that the host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification. If the grantee markets their product as being Part 15 Subpart B compliant (when it also contains unintentional-radiator digital circuity), then the grantee shall provide a notice stating that the final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.
