5.1 United States

The ATSAMR30M Sensor Board (DT100130) contains the ATSAMR30M18A module, which has received Federal Communications Commission (FCC) CFR47 Telecommunications, Part 15 Subpart C “Intentional Radiators” single-modular approval in accordance with Part 15.212 Modular Transmitter approval.

Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: 2ADHKR30M

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.

Important: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for uncontrolled environment. 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. This transmitter is restricted for use with the specific antenna(s) tested in this application for certification.

CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

FCC Notice

This kit is designed to allow:
  • Product developers to evaluate electronic components, circuitry or software associated with the kit to determine whether to incorporate such items in a finished product.
  • Software developers to write software applications for use with the end product. This kit is not a finished product and when assembled may not be resold or otherwise marketed unless all required FCC equipment authorizations are first obtained. Operation is subject to the condition that this product not cause harmful interference to licensed radio stations and that this product accept harmful interference. Unless the assembled kit is designed to operate under part 15, part 18 or part 95 of this chapter, the operator of the kit must operate under the authority of an FCC license holder or must secure an experimental authorization under part 5 of this chapter.
  • The kit is for evaluation only; not FCC approved for resale; and any radio frequency transmitter employed as part of an evaluation kit shall be designed to comply with all applicable FCC technical rules, including frequency use, spurious and out-of-band emission limits and maximum power or field strength ratings applicable to final products that would employ the components or circuitry to be evaluated.
  • Under 47 CFR 2.805(d)(2), in order to operate the evaluation kit, the user must ultimately render the device inoperable or return it to Microchip.
  • Evaluation kit is defined by FCC as “[a]n assembly of components, subassemblies, or circuitry, including software, created by or for a component maker, system integrator, or product developer for the sole purpose of facilitating: End product developer evaluation of all or some of such components, subassemblies, or circuitry, or (ii) the development of software to be used in an end product.” (see 47 CFR 2.1)
