Oticon Radio Model - Quick Installation Guide Radio Model Name:

Aurora BTE power The Aurora BTE power radio model contains two radio transceivers running at 3.84 MHz and 2.4 GHz and both implemented on a single hardware platform. The radio model is implemented in an engine module mounted on the main PCB with connections to the antennas, the microphones, the speaker and the battery terminals. The radio model can be seen in 3D overview to the left:

The 3.84 MHz radio is a low power, short range, and inductive radio transceiver working at a single channel at 3.84 MHz using MSK modulation with 320 kbit/s data rate and connected to a small coil antenna. The 2.4 GHz radio is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) transceiver using GFSK modulation with 1 Mbit/s data rate also capable of proprietary modes with higher data rates and connected to a short PCB antenna.

Aurora BTE power Below the main flex PCB of the Aurora BTE power radio model with the most important electrical and electro-mechanical components can be seen:

Aurora BTE power Radio Model Main PCB Top side The most important part of the radio model is the Engine Module mounted on the main flex PCB, which connects it to both the EEPROM memory and all external connections: On the top side, these are the microphones, the battery terminals, the external connector and the push button. The Aurora BTE power radio model requires only a single cell battery and an external speaker to be attached and plastic shells, defining the industrial design of a hearing aid end product and holding everything together, in order to be operational.

Aurora BTE power On the bottom, side of the main PCB of the Aurora BTE power radio model the connector for the speaker unit assembly (where the wire antenna for the Bluetooth radio is an integrated part), the programming connector, and EEPROM memory and coil antenna for the 3.84 MHz radio can be seen:

Aurora BTE power Radio Model Main PCB Bottom side The most important parts inside the Engine module are a Digital-Signal-Processor (DSP), a radio Front-End (FE) chip for the 3.84 MHz radio part and an RF chip for the Bluetooth radio part all mounted on a small rigid PCB again mounted on the main flex PCB. The Aurora BTE power radio model also includes all voltage regulators and buffered data programming inputs on-board. The DSP is the main processor controlling the functionality of both radios in the Aurora BTE power radio model. The Aurora BTE power radio model is intended to be installed in Oticon, Bernafon, Sonic and affiliated wireless hearing aid devices of the BTE power (Receiver-In-

The-Ear) wearing style. Bernafon AG Morgenstrasse 131 P.O. Box 550 CH-3018 Bern, Switzerland

Radio module with 2.4 GHz low power transceiver to be integrated into Oticon, Bernafon, Sonic hearing instruments and associated devices. Regulatory label:

NB: The regulatory label for Japan is also included in the IFU for Japan. NB: The This device is granted pursuant to the Japanese Radio Law () and the Japanese Telecommunications Business Law () under the grant ID n : 202-LSE124 This device should not be modified (otherwise, the granted designation number will become invalid) NB: The regulatory label is not shown on the radio module itself or any end products with it, since they are too small for the label to be readable without any optical aids or magnification. Below the radio module is shown on mm paper, indicating a size of about 7x10x31 mm. Radio module from the side Radio module from the top side (button side) Bernafon AG Morgenstrasse 131 P.O.
