Specifications

When you enable the application program of WIFI, many wireless applications will become possible, such as: Communicating with each other wirelessly, including shares or exchanges of data.
The WM-AN-AT-01 module consists of a WiFi chipset (AR6003), a 2.4GHz Power Amplifier, a 2.4GHz Band-Pass-Filter, a 5G FEM, an RF Diplexer, and a 26MHz crystal,
the wifi communication is performed by the AR6003 chipset and host CPU which is controlled by the SDIO interface.

Power Management
The WM-AN-AT-01 has an integrated Power Management Unit (PMU) which generates all the power supplies required by its internal circuitry from external 3.3V and 1.8V supplies. The main components of the PMU are as follows:

  • A linear regulator (SREG) converts the host IO supply to a 1.2V supply for some small control blocks which are turned on when CHIP_PWD_L is de-asserted.
  • A linear regulator (DREG) converts the 1.8V input to 1.2V for the bulk of AR6003X core digital circuitry.
  • A linear regulator (AREG) converts the 1.8V input to 1.2V for the AR6003X core analog circuitry.

Power Transition Diagram

The WM-AN-AT-01 provides integrated power management and control functions and extremely low power operation for maximum battery life across all operational states by:

  • Gating clocks for logic when not needed
  • Shutting down unneeded high speed clock sources
  • Reducing voltage levels to specific blocks in some states

Operational Description
The WM-AN-AT-01 is designed for installation into mobile or fixed devices such as data terminals which typically operate at distances greater than 20 cm from the human body.

Others

  1. This device is intended for OEM integrators only.
  2. OEM integrators is responsible for ensuring that the end-user has no manual instructions to remove or install the module.
  3. Separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including portable configurations with respect to Part 2.1093 and different antenna configurations.
  4. Please see the full Grant of Equipment document for other restrictions.

Regulatory

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
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.

CAUTION
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the grantee of this device could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

LABEL REQUIREMENT
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.

RF exposure warning
This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided instructions and the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. End-users and installers must be provided with antenna installation instructions and transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance

End Product Labeling
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in devices where the antenna may be installed such that 20cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID: SLE-WM-AN-AT-01 ”.

Information for the OEMs and Integrators

The following statement must be included with all versions of this document supplied to an OEM or integrator, but should not be distributed to the end user.

  1. This device is intended for OEM integrators only.
  2. Please see the full Grant of Equipment document for other restrictions.
