1. Product Description
The DWPCIe83 USB module is a wireless audio module (30x26.8mm) with a PCI
Express interface based on the SMSC DARR83. This USB module can be used to build
an uncompressed wireless digital audio transceiver operating in the 2.4GHz, 5.2GHz and
5.8GHz bands.
The wireless audio link supports up to four stereo audio streams and comes together with
additional features such as: data encryption, pairing functionality, bi-directional control
data messages, low power audio snooze mode, WLAN detection and Automatic
Frequency Allocation.
The DARR83 chip itself provides the basic functions of Audio Processing and buffering, Data
Link Layer and Physical Layer. The DWPCIe83 USB module integrates all functionality for a
wireless digital audio connection, comprising:
DARR83 Wireless Audio Processor
2.4GHz/ 5.2GHz/ 5.8 GHz RF Transceiver
Dual antenna connectors
USB2.0 through a PCI Express Mini Card System Connector
Built-in SPI interface Flash
2. DWPCIe83 Module Usage Scenarios
2.1. Headset Mode
When the DWPCIe83 Module is configured into the headset mode the DWPCIe83 module is
able to have an audio input and audio output at the same time. The DWPCIe83 module can
stream audio to a DARR-enabled headset and simultaneously receive the voice channel from
this headset.
2.2. Multiple Stream Mode
In the multiple stream mode the DWPCIe83 Module will act as a multi stereo stream device
so that in Windows Vista and Windows 7 it is possible to play multiple audio sources (iTunes
and medial player) to different speakers.
2.3. Surround Mode
When the DWPCIe83 Module is configured in the surround mode it is possible to transfer
5.1/7.1 audio from a movie to wireless surround speakers.

5. Installation Requirements
The DWPCIe83 must be installed in a device that contains a 52-pin PCIE slot for mini-PCie cards.
The DWPCIe83 has FCC single modular approval, which can eliminate the need for you to obtain
FCC Part 15 Subpart C and E (intentional radiation) approvals for your device. In order to use this
FCC/IC single modular approval for the DWPCIe83, OEM integrators must:
1. include “Contains FCC ID: ZQO-DWPCIE83, IC: 2581A-DWPCIE83” on the exterior label of
your device.
2. ensure that its “END” product is electrically identical to the SMSC reference designs
3. use an antenna as approved with the DWPCIe83 module or an equivalent type antenna with
equal or lower gain and provide antenna reports to SMSC.
4. include all required statements in your final product user‟s manual and final product labeling
as required by the applicable law in all respects. Refer to FCC/IC Information in previous
chapter (for illustration purposes only).
5. not provide Instructions on how to remove or install the DWPCIe83 module to your end users.
6. provide regulated +3.3 VDC power to the DWPCIe83 module.
Additional items (CE):
1. the module is tested to comply with the requirement of the R&TTE Directive. System
integrators are responsible for compliance of the final device with the R&TTE Directive.
2. Packaging: CE Marking must also be on the outer packaging of the product. The outer
packaging must also provide an indication as to where the device is intended to be used and
OR conversely, where there may be restrictions to use.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-
location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and FCC
ID cannot 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.
Manual Information to the End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to
install or remove this RF module in the user manual of the end product which integrates this module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/ warning as shown in this
manual (for illustration purpose only).
