General Description The document describes the hardware specification of 4Tx4R 802.11 b/g/n single band WIFI module. The device is built in Qualcomm QCA9990 which is a highly integrated wireless local area network (WLAN) system-on-chip (SoC) for 2.4GHz 802.11n WLAN applications. The QCA9990 integrates an on-board CPU for low-level setup of WLAN physical layer (PHY) and RF to offload the host processor for other tasks. It enables high-performance 4x4 MIMO with four spatial streams for wireless applications demanding the highest robust link quality and maximum throughput and range. The device integrates a multi-protocol MAC, PHY, analog-to-
digital/digital-to-analog converters (ADC/DAC), 4x4 MIMO radio transceivers, and PCI Express interface in a PCBA for low power consumption and small form-factor applications. 1.2. Features High performance up to 600 Mbps data rate PCIe interface full card IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Wireless LAN Standards compliant MMCX connector Support 2.4GHz Band 4T x 4R MIMO Compatible OS with Linux Standard IEEE 802.11b/g/n Data Rate Modulation 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6, 11, 5.5, 2, 1 20 MHz BW: 6.5M~288M 40 MHz BW: 13.5M~600M DSSS with DBPSK and DQPSK, CCK modulations with long and short preamble. OFDM with BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM, and 64QAM modulations, QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM modulations. Operating Frequencies Antenna Connectors Four antennas allowing transmission or reception on simultaneously 2.4GHz- form 2.412 to 2.4835 GHz RD-ECMWIFI User Manual 3 2. Software architecture The device implements QCA9990 integrating half-duplex OFDM, CCK, and DSSS PHY, supporting 802.11n up to 288 Mbps for 20 MHz and 600 Mbps for 40 MHz channel operations, and IEEE 802.11 b/g/n data rates. Additional features include explicit transmit beamforming (TxBF), 802.11 compatible implicit TxBF, MIMO features, Maximal Likelihood (ML) decoding, Low-Density Parity Check (LDPC), Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC), Space Time Block Code (STBC), and On-Chip One-Time programmable (OTP) memory to eliminate the need for an external flash and to further reduce the external component count and BOM cost with integrated power management. The device supports 802.11 wireless MAC protocol, 802.11i security, Wi-Fi offload, error recovery, and 802.11e quality of service (QoS). RD-ECMWIFI User Manual 4 3.

/Jimyin.Chen Remark Initialize RD-ECMWIFI User Manual 5 Federal Communication 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 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.
-
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. 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 NOTE:
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Country Code selection feature to be disabled for products marketed to the US/CANADA Operation of this device is restricted to indoor use only This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and 2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna, 3) For all products market in US, OEM has to limit the operation channels in CH1 to CH11 for 2.4G band by supplied firmware programming tool. OEM shall not supply any tool or info to the end-user regarding to Regulatory Domain change. As long as 3 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional RD-ECMWIFI User Manual 6 compliance requirements required with this module installed IMPORTANT NOTE In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. End Product Labeling This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be installed such that 20 cm 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: U6Y-
