GSI Electronics Pi RM0 EDGE Essential Raspberry User Guide

This document guides the use of Raspberry Pi RM0 as a radio module when integrating into a host product.
The Raspberry Pi RM0 module is designed to be mounted on a PCB in a host product.

Ensure correct placement to maintain radio performance. Only use pre-approved antennas.
Maintain a separation distance of at least 20 cm between the antenna and any other radio transmitter in the same product.

Supply 5V power to the module from a compliant power supply.
Aua le suia so'o se vaega o le laupapa e fa'amautu ai le tausisia.

The module supports only 2.4 GHz bands with an external patch antenna.
Follow instructions for antenna placement and routing to maintain compliance.

Incorrect integration or use may infringe compliance rules, meaning recertification may be required.

Fa'amatalaga Module

The Raspberry Pi RM0 module has an IEEE 802.11b/g/n/ac 1×1 WLAN module based on the 43455 chip.

The module is designed to be mounted to a PCB into a host product.
The module must be placed in a suitable location to ensure radio performance is not compromised.

The module must be used with a pre-approved antenna only.

Fa'amatalaga Antenna

The module is approved for use with an antenna on the host board and supports only 2.4 GHz bands when used with an external patch antenna (peak gain of 2.6 dBi).
The antenna must be positioned appropriately inside the host product to ensure optimal operation. Do not place it near a metal casing.

The Antenna (Molex Inc., Part Number: 1461530200) is connected to the UFL connector (Taoglas RECE.20279.001E.01), which is connected to the RF switch (Skyworks Part Number: SKY13351-378LF) and directly connected to the RM0 module. Refer to Figure 2-1.

Aua e te alu ese mai soʻo se vaega o le lisi faʻamaonia antenna.
The routing to the UFL connector or switch must maintain a 50-ohm impedance with suitable ground stitching vias along the trace route.

The trace length must be minimised by placing the module and antenna close together.
Avoid routing the RF output trace over any other signals or power planes, ensuring it references only ground.

The antenna must be placed at the edge of the PCB with appropriate grounding around its shape.
The antenna consists of the RF feed line (routed with 50 ohms impedance) and a cutout in the ground copper.
To ensure proper functionality, the design’s performance must be plotted, and the peak gain must be calculated to confirm it does not exceed the specified limits stated in this document.
During production, the antenna’s performance must be verified by measuring the radiated output power at a fixed frequency.

Any deviation from the defined parameters of the antenna trace, as specified in the instructions, requires the host product manufacturer (integrator) to notify the module grantee (Raspberry Pi) of the intended design change.
In such cases, a Class II permissive change application must be filed e le tagata ua fa'atagaina, po'o le fale gaosi oloa e tatau ona tauaveina le tiute e ala i le talosaga mo se FCC ID fou, soso'o ai ma le Vasega II Fa'atagaina Suiga talosaga.

FAʻAMATALAGA FCC

The modular transmitter is FCC-authorised only for the specific rule parts (i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant. The host product manufacturer is responsible for ensuring compliance with any other applicable FCC rules not covered by the modular transmitter’s grant of certification. If the grantee markets the product as Part 15 Subpart B compliant (when it includes unintentional-radiator digital circuitry). The final host product must still undergo Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.

Fa'ailoga Fa'ai'uga o Oloa

A label must be affixed to the exterior of all products containing the Raspberry Pi RM0 module. The label must include: “Contains FCC ID: 2AFLZRPIRM0” (for FCC) and “Contains IC: 11880A-RPIRM0” (for ISED).

TAUA: The FCC Part 15 text must be placed on the host product unless the product is too small to accommodate a label with the text. It is not acceptable to include the text only in the user guide.

E-Faailoga

The host product can use E-labelling provided it meets the requirements of FCC KDB 784748 D02 E-labelling and ISED Canada RSS-Gen,.
E-labelling applies to the FCC ID, ISED Canada certification number, and FCC Part 15 text.

Suiga i Tulaga Fa'aoga o lenei Module
This device has been approved as a mobile device in accordance with FCC and ISED Canada requirements. This means a minimum separation distance of 20 cm must be maintained between the module’s antenna and any person.
Any change in use that reduces the separation distance of ≤20 cm (portable usage) between the module’s antenna and any person is considered a modification to the module’s RF exposure. Such changes require an FCC Class 2 Permissive Change and an ISED Canada Class 4 Permissive Change in accordance with FCC KDB 996396 D01 and ISED Canada RSP-100.

If the device is co-located with multiple antennas, the module may be subject to an FCC Class 2 Permissive Change and an ISED Canada Class 4 Permissive Change in accordance with FCC KDB 996396 D01 and ISED Canada RSP-100.
In accordance with FCC KDB 996369 D03, Section 2.9, test mode configuration information is available from the module manufacturer for the host (OEM) product manufacturer.
Use of any antennas other than those specified in Section 2-4 of this installation guide is subject to the Permissive Change requirements of the FCC and ISED Canada.
