13.1 United States (FCC)
The ATSAMR30M18A module has received Federal Communications Commission (FCC) CFR47 Telecommunications, Part 15 Subpart C “Intentional Radiators” modular approval in accordance with Part 15.212 Modular Transmitter approval. Modular approval allows the end user to integrate the ATSAMR30M18A module into a finished product without obtaining subsequent and separate FCC approvals for intentional radiation, provided no changes or modifications are made to the module circuitry. Changes or modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The user must comply with all of the instructions provided by the Grantee, which indicate the installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance.
The finished product is required to comply with all applicable FCC equipment authorization regulations, requirements and equipment functions that are not associated with the transmitter module portion. For example, compliance must be demonstrated: to regulations for other transmitter components within a host product; to requirements for unintentional radiators (Part 15 Subpart B), such as digital devices, computer peripherals, radio receivers, etc.; and to additional authorization requirements for the non transmitter functions on the transmitter module (i.e., SDoC or certification) as appropriate (e.g., Bluetooth and Wi-Fi® transmitter modules may also contain digital logic functions).
