BC05-MM
The BlueCore®5-Multimedia External is a single-chip radio and baseband IC for Bluetooth 2.4GHz systems. It
provides a fully compliant Bluetooth v3.0 specification system for data and voice. BlueCore5-Multimedia
External contains the Kalimba DSP coprocessor with double the MIPS of BlueCore3-Multimedia External,
supporting enhanced audio applications.
XTAL
Ther reference clock of WT32i is generated with 26 MHz crystal. All BC05-MM internal digital clocks are
generated using a phase locked loop, which is locked to the frequency of either the 26 MHz crystal or an
internally generated watchdog clock frequency of 1kHz.
RESET CIRCUITRY
The internal reset circuitry keeps BC05-MM in reset during boot in order for the supply voltages to stabilize.
This is to prevent corruption of the flash memory during booting. Please see chapter 5.1 for more detailed
description.
BALANCED FILTER
The internal balanced filter provides optimal impedance matching and band pass filtering in order to achieve
lowest possible in-band and out-of-band emissions.
ANTENNA
The antenna is a ceramic chip antenna with high efficiency. The antenna is insensitive to surrounding
dielectric materials and requires only a small clearance underneath which makes it compatible with previous
WT32I designs and well suitable for designs with high density.
FLASH
16 Mbit flash memory is used for storing the Bluetooth protocol stack and Virtual Machine applications. It can
also be used as an optional external RAM for memory-intensive applications.

Description
RESET
Active high reset. If not used, leave floating. When
connected, make sure that the reset is either pulled
high or floating (connected to high impedance)
during boot.
Configurable I/O
AIO0 and AIO1 can be used to read the voltage
level through the internal ADC (refer to iWRAP
User Guide for details). AIO pins can also be
configured to be used as general digital IO pins
through PS settings. Internal clocks can be routed
out through AIO pins by setting corresponding PS
settings. Note that the AIO pins are powered from
internal 1.5V supply so the maximum voltage level
of the AIO pins is 1.5V.
General purpose IO's can be configured with
iWRAP for various functions. Each IO can be
configured individually as output or input with
strong or weak pull-up/-down. Using particular PS
setting GPIO pins can be used to implement WiFi
co-existence signaling between WT32i and a WiFi
radio. Software I2C interface can be implemented
for slow I2C functions such as configuring external
audio codec or display.

4.4.3
A2DP Codecs
4.4.3.1 SBC
SBC codec is the default codec used for Bluetooth A2DP connections. Any Bluetooth device supporting A2DP
audio profile supports SBC codec. SBC was originally design to provide reasonable good audio quality while
keeping low computational complexity. SBC does not require high bit rates. Thus it works sufficiently with
Bluetooth where the bandwidth and the processing power are limited.
4.4.3.2 aptX®
The aptX is widely used in high quality audio devices. aptX can provide dynamic range up to 120 dB and it
has the shortest coding delay (<2ms) than other coding algorithms. Using aptX® the whole system latency can
be reduced significantly because unlike SBC, it does not require buffering the audio. SBC reproduces a limited
audio band width whereas aptX® encode the entire frequency range of audio.
aptX® is more robust and resilient coding scheme than SBC and thus re-transmits does not occur as with
SBC.
Both SBC and aptX® have flat frequency response up to 14 kHz. Up to 14 kHz both algorithms produce good
quality audio with very little distortion. At frequencies higher than 14 kHz the benefit of aptX® becomes
obvious. SBC exhibits increasing attenuation with increasing frequency but aptX® retains high reproduction
quality.
aptX®requires purchasing a license for each Bluetooth address and the license agreement must be done with
CSR. The combination of aptX® license and the Bluetooth address is programmed into the module in the
module production line.
Figure 3: Frequency response of aptX and SBC codecs
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 14 of 64
4.4.3.3 AAC
AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) achieves better sound quality than MP3 and it is the default audio format for
YouTube and iPhone among others. AAC has long latency (>100ms) compared to aptX®. Because of high
processing capacity requirement for encoding, WT32i does not support AAC as A2DP source. Thus WT32i
can be used for receiving (A2DP sink) AAC (from iPhone for example) but it can not transmit AAC coded
audio.

5 Power Control and Regulation
WT32i contains an internal battery charger and a switch mode regulator that is mainly used for internal blocks
of the module. The module can be powered from a single 3.3 V supply provided that VDD_CHG is floating.
Alternatively the module can be powered from a battery connected to VDD_BAT and using an external
regulator for VDD_IO. 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply voltage for VDD_IO can be used to give desired signal levels for
the digital interfaces of the module. USB, however, requires 3.3 V for proper operation and thus, when USB is
in use, 3.3 V for VDD_IO is required.

NOTE: With the configuration shown above, when doing a SW reset for the module C1 will hold the enable pin
of the external regulator high until iWRAP has booted. This will prevent the module from turning off during
reset. When resetting through the reset pin one has to make sure that the enable pin is held high as long as
the reset pin is held active.
Figure 9 shows an example how to arrange power control when on/off button is not implemented. VREG_ENA
pin must not be connected to VDD_IO because leakage from VDD_BAT to VDD_IO will prevent VREG_ENA
to fall low enough to turn off the internal regulators.

5.1 Reset
WT32i may be reset from several sources: reset pin, power on reset, a UART break character or through
software configured watchdog timer.
At reset, the digital I/O pins are set to inputs for bi-directional pins and outputs are tri-state.
The chip status after a reset is as follows:


Warm Reset: data rate and RAM data remain available
Cold Reset: data rate and RAM data are not available
Table 13 shows the pin states of WT32i on reset. Pull-up (PU) and pull-down (PD) default to weak values

5.1.1
Internal POR
WT32i has two internal POR circuits. One is internally to the BC5 chip. In BC5 the power on reset occurs
when the core supply voltage (output of the internal 1.5V regulator) falls below typically 1.26V and is released
when VDD_CORE rises above typically 1.31V.
Another POR circuit is embedded to the module and it keeps the module in reset until supply voltages have
stabilized. This is to prevent corruption of the internal flash memory during boot. The embedded POR is
shown in the figure Figure 1Figure 10.
Because the POR is based on a simple RC time constant it will not work if the supply voltage ramps very
slowly or if the reset pin is not connected to high impedance. It is recommended that the power ramp will not
take more than 10 msec. If the reset pin is connected to a host it is good to place a diode between the host
and the module as shown in Figure 11. A diode will prevent the host from pulling the reset low before the
internal flash has its supply stabilized.

6 Battery Charger
The battery charger is a constant current / constant voltage charger circuit, and is suitable for lithium
ion/polymer batteries only. It shares a connection to the battery terminal, VDD_BAT, with the switch-mode
regulator. The charger is initially calibrated by Bluegiga Technologies to have Vfloat = 4.15V - 4.2 V.
The constant current level can be varied to allow charging of different capacity batteries. WT32i allows a
number of different currents to be used in the battery charger hardware. Values written to PS key 0x039b
CHARGER_CURRENT in the range 1..15 specify the charger current from 40..135mA in even steps. Values
outside the valid 0..15 range result in no change to the charging current. The default charging current (Key =
0) is nominally 40mA. Setting 0 is interpreted as “no-change” so it will be ignored
The charger enters various states of operation as it charges a battery. These are shown below:





Off: entered when the charger is disconnected.
Trickle Charge: entered when the battery voltage is below 2.9V.
Fast Charge - Constant Current: entered when the battery voltage is above 2.9V.
Fast Charge - Constant Voltage: entered when the battery has reached Vfloat, the charger
switches mode to maintain the cell voltage at Vfloat voltage by adjusting the constant
charge current.
Standby: this is the state when the battery is fully charged and no charging takes place.
When a voltage is applied to the charger input terminal VDD_CHG, and the battery is not fully charged, the
charger will operate and a LED connected to the terminal LED0 will illuminate. By default, until the firmware is
running, the LED will pulse at a low-duty cycle to minimize current consumption.
The battery charger circuitry auto-detects the presence of a power source, allowing the firmware to detect
when the charger is powered. Therefore, when the charger supply is not connected to VDD_CHG, the
terminal must be left open circuit. The VDD_CHG pin, when not connected, must be allowed to float and not
be pulled to a power rail. When the battery charger is not enabled, this pin may float to a low undefined
voltage. Any DC connection will increase current consumption of the device. Capacitive components such as
diodes, FETs, and ESD protection, may be connected.
The battery charger is designed to operate with a permanently connected battery. If the application permits
the charger input to be connected while the battery is disconnected, the VDD_BAT pin voltage may become
unstable. This, in turn, may cause damage to the internal switch-mode regulator. Connecting a 470μF
capacitor to VDD_BAT limits these oscillations thus preventing damage.
WARNING:
Use good consideration for battery safety. Do not charge with too much current. Do not charge when the
temperature is above 60°C or below 0°C. WT32i is initially calibrated to stop charging when battery voltage is
at 4.2 V. Do not try to charge batteries above 4.2 V. Do not short circuit the battery or discharge below 1.5 V.

iWRAP does not support this feature. To use this feature either the particular PS Keys must be set to each
module separately or then ask for custom FW from Bluegiga.
7.4 Auxiliary ADC
Simple iWRAP command can be used to read the ADC output from either of the two AIO pins. Refer to latest
iWRAP user manual for the detailed information.
7.5 Software I2C Interface
PIO6, PIO7 and PIO8 can be used to form a master I²C interface. The interface is formed using software to
drive these lines. Therefore it is suited only to relatively slow functions such as driving a dot matrix LCD,
keyboard scanner or configuring external audio codec. I2C interface requires a custom FW.

8 Serial Interfaces
8.1 UART Interface
WT32i has a standard UART serial interface that provides a simple mechanism for communicating with other
serial devices using the RS232 protocol. UART configuration parameters, such as baud rate, parity and stop
bits can be configured with an iWRAP command.
The hardware flow control is enabled by default. HW flow control can be disabled in HW by connecting
UART_NCTS to GND and leaving UART_NRTS floating.

8.1.1
Resetting Through UART Break Signal
The UART interface can reset WT32i on reception of a break signal. A break is identified by a continuous logic
low (0V) on the UART_RX terminal. If tBRK is longer than the value, defined by
PSKEY_HOSTIO_UART_RESET_TIMEOUT, a reset occurs. This feature allows a host to initialise the system
to a known state. Also, WT32i can emit a break character that may be used to wake the host.
Default PSKEY_HOSTIO_UART_RESET_TIMEOUT setting in WT32i is zero, which means that this feature is
disabled. To use this feature, either the PS setting has to be changed for each module separately or ask for
modules with custom FW with appropriate settings.
8.1.2
UART Configuration While Reset is Active
The UART interface for WT32i is tristate while the chip is being held in reset. This allows the user to daisy
chain devices onto the physical UART bus. The constraint on this method is that any devices connected to
this bus must tristate when WT32i reset is de-asserted and the firmware begins to run.
8.1.3
UART Bypass Mode
Alternatively, for devices that do not tristate the UART bus, the UART bypass mode on WT32i can be used.
The default state of WT32i after reset is de-asserted; this is for the host UART bus to be connected to the
WT32i UART, thereby allowing communication to WT32i via the UART. All UART bypass mode connections
are implemented using CMOS technology and have signalling levels of 0V and VDD_IO.
The bypass mode is enabled with a simple iWRAP command. When in bypass mode, the module is
automatically set into deep sleep state indefinitely. Physical reset is required to return to normal operation
mode. The current consumption of a module in bypass mode is equal to a module in standby (idle) mode.
It is important for the host to ensure a clean Bluetooth disconnection of any active links before the bypass
mode is invoked. Therefore, it is not possible to have active Bluetooth links while operating the bypass mode.

9.1 Stereo Audio Codec Interface
Stereo audio CODEC operates from an internal 1.5V power supply. It uses fully differential architecture in
analog signal path for the best possible common mode noise rejection while effectively doubling the signal
amplitude.
The stereo audio bus standard I2S is supported and a software I2C interface can be implemented using
GPIOs to configure an external audio CODEC.

Microphone Input
Figure 18 shows the recommended microphone biasing. The microphone bias, MIC_BIAS, derives its power
from the VDD_BAT and requires 1uF capacitor on its output (C1).
The input impedance at AUDIO_IN_P_LEFT and AUDIO_IN_N_LEFT is typically 6kohm and C5 and C4 are
typically 1uF. If bass roll-off is required to limit the wind noise on the microphone then C4 and C5 should be
150 nF.
R2 sets the microphone load impedance and is normally in the range of 1kΩ to 2kΩ
R1, C2 and C3 improve the supply rejection by decoupling supply noise from the microphone. Values should
be selected as required. R1 can be connected or to the MIC_BIAS output (which is ground referenced and
provides good rejection of the supply) as shown in Figure 18. MIC_BIAS is configured to provide bias only
when the microphone is required. R1 may also be connected to a convenient supply, in which case the bias
network is permanently enabled.

Figure 18: Microphone connection to audio input
The MIC_BIAS is like any voltage regulator and requires a minimum load to maintain regulation. The
MIC_BIAS maintains regulation within the limits 0.200mA to 1.230mA. If the microphone sits below these
limits, then the microphone output must be pre-loaded with a large value resistor to ground.
The audio input is intended for use in the range from 1μA @ 94dB SPL to about 10μA @ 94dB SPL. With
biasing resistors R1 and R2 equal to 1kΩ, this requires microphones with sensitivity between about –40dBV
and –60dBV.

Line Input
Line input mode is selected by setting the ADC preamplifier off (see chapter 9.1.1). In the line input mode the
input impedance varies from 6k to 30 kohm depending on the gain setting.
Figure 19 and Figure 20 show examples of line input connection with WT32i. The maximum line level rms
voltage can vary from 0.3 up to 1.6 Vrms depending on the application, while the maximum for WT32i is
0.4Vrms (0.8Vrms differential). Thus it may be necessary to use a voltage divider (R1 and R2) at the input to
attenuate the incoming signal. C1 and C2 are typically 1uF ceramic X7R or film type capacitors.
It is a good practice to place a LC (22nH + 15pF) filter close to each input to filter out any RF noise that might
couple to the audio traces.

Output Stage
The output stage digital circuitry converts the signal from 16-bit per sample, linear PCM of variable sampling
frequency to bit stream, which is fed into the analogue output circuitry. The output stage circuit comprises a
DAC with gain setting and class AB output stage amplifier.
The output is available as a differential signal between AUDIO_OUT_N_LEFT and AUDIO_OUT_P_LEFT for
left channel and AUDIO_OUT_N_RIGHT and AUDIO_OUT_P_RIGHT for right channel.
The output stage is capable of driving a speaker directly when its impedance is at least 16Ω.
Figure 21 show an example of differentially connected speaker and Figure 22 show an example of speaker
connected single-ended. Differential (balanced) connection provides perfect common mode rejection ratio with
effectively 3 dB higher amplitude so it is recommended to use differential signaling always when possible.

Mono Operation
Mono operation is a single-channel operation of the stereo codec. The left channel represents the single mono
channel for audio in and audio out. In mono operation the right channel is the auxiliary mono channel that may
be used in dual mono channel operation. Dual mono feature is FW dependent and iWRAP does not generally
support it.
9.1.7
Side Tone
In some applications it is necessary to implement side tone. This involves feeding an attenuated version of the
microphone signal to the earpiece. The WT32i codec contains side tone circuitry to do this. There is no
iWRAP support for the side tone but the side tone is configurable through PS Keys. To implement a side tone,
either the PS setting has to be programmed for each module separately or ask for modules with custom FW
with appropriate settings.
The side tone hardware is configured through the following PS Keys:

PSKEY_SIDE_TONE_ENABLE

PSKEY_SIDE_TONE_GAIN

PSKEY_SIDE_TONE_AFTER_ADC

PSKEY_SIDE_TONE_AFTER_DAC
9.2 PCM Interface
The audio PCM interface supports continuous transmission and reception of PCM encoded audio data over
Bluetooth.
PCM is a standard method used to digitise audio, particularly voice, for transmission over digital
communication channels. Through its PCM interface, WT32i has hardware support for continual transmission
and reception of PCM data, so reducing processor overhead. WT32i offers a bidirectional digital audio
interface that routes directly into the baseband layer of the on-chip firmware. It does not pass through the HCI
protocol layer.
Hardware on WT32i allows the data to be sent to and received from a SCO connection.
Using HCI FW up to 3 SCO connections can be supported by the PCM interface at any one time. However
iWRAP supports only 1 SCO connection at a time.
WT32i can operate as the PCM interface master generating PCM_SYNC and PCM_CLK or as a PCM
interface slave accepting externally generated PCM_SYNC and PCM_CLK. WT32i is compatible with various
clock formats, including Long Frame Sync, Short Frame Sync and GCI timing environments.
WT32i supports 13-bit or 16-bit linear, 8-bit μ-law or A-law companded sample formats, and can receive and
transmit on any selection of 3 of the first four slots following PCM_SYNC. The PCM configuration options are
enabled by setting the PS Key PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32. Please contact Bluegiga technical support for
details about the PCM configuration.
9.3 I2S Interface
The digital audio interface supports the industry standard formats for I2S, left-justified or righ justified. The
interface shares the same pins as the PCM interface, which means each audio bus is mutually exclusive in its
usage. The internal representation of audio samples within WT32i is 16-bit and data on SD_OUT is limited to
16-bit per channel.
WT32i is not capable of generating the master clock for I2S, so it can only be used as a master with a codec
that is capable of producing the master clock from the SCK.

9.4 IEC 60958 Interface
The IEC 60958 interface is a digital audio interface that uses bi-phase coding to minimize the DC content of
the transmitted signal and allows the receiver to decode the clock information from the transmitted signal. The
IEC 60958 specification is based on the 2 industry standards:

AES/EBU

Sony and Philips interface specification SPDIF
The interface is compatible with IEC 60958-1, IEC 60958-3 and IEC 60958-4.
The SPDIF interface signals are SPDIF_IN and SPDIF_OUT and are shared no the PCM interface pins. The
input and output stages of the SPDIF pins can interface to:

75Ω coaxial cable with an RCA connector, see Figure 25

An optical link that uses Toslink optical components

RF noise with Bluetooth
10.1.1

10.1.2
Choosing Capacitors and Resistors
Metal film resistors have lower noise than carbon resistors which makes them more suitable for high quality
audio.
Non-linearity of capacitors within the audio path will have an impact on the audio quality at the frequencies
where the impedance of the capacitors become dominant. At higher frequencies the amplitude is not
determined by the value of the capacitors but at the lower frequencies the impact of the capacitors will be
seen.
Ceramic capacitors should be X5R or X7R type capacitors with relative high voltage rating. The higher the
capacitance value, the lower is the frequency where the non-linearity will start to have an impact. Thus it is not
a bad idea to select the capacitors value bigger than necessary from the frequency response point of view.
For optimal audio quality the best selection is to use film capacitors. Film capacitors have excellent linearity
and they are non-polarized which makes them perfect choice for using in audio path. The drawback of film
capacitors is bigger physical size and higher cost.
Figure 27 shows a modulation distortion measurement when using different type of capacitors in the audio
paths. Modulation distortion measures the amount of distortion between two closely located sine waves. The
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 45 of 64
difference between the different capacitors is obvious at low frequencies where the impedance of the
capacitor is dominant.
Figure 27: Modulation distortion with different type of capacitors
10.2 RF Layout Guide
The chip antenna of WT32i requires only a small metal clearance area directly under the antenna. The
antenna operation is dependent on the GND planes on both sides of the antenna. Minimum 15mm of GND
plane must be placed on both sides of the module and the GND plane of the motherboard must reach under
the edges of the module as shown in the Figure 28.

Figure 28: Recommended layout for WT32i
Figure 29: Poor layouts for WT32i
Use good layout practices to avoid excessive noise coupling to supply voltage traces or sensitive analog
signal traces. If using overlapping ground planes use stitching vias separated by max 3 mm to avoid emission
from the edges of the PCB. Connect all the GND pins directly to a solid GND plane and make sure that there
is a low impedance path for the return current following the signal and supply traces all the way from start to
the end.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 47 of 64
– Place MIC biasing resistors symmetrically as close to microhone as pos
– Make sure that the bias trace does not cross separated GND regions (D
AGND) so that the path for the return current is cut. If this is not possibl
not separate GND regions but keep one solid GND plane.
–A good
Keep
the trace as short as possible
practice is to dedicate one of the inner layers to a solid GND plane and one of the inner layers to
supply voltage planes and traces and route all the signals on top and bottom layers of the PCB. This
arrangement will make sure that any return current follows the forward current as close as possible and any
loops are minimized.

12 Soldering Recommendations
WT32i is compatible with industrial standard reflow profile for Pb-free solders. The reflow profile used is
dependent on the thermal mass of the entire populated PCB, heat transfer efficiency of the oven and
particular type of solder paste used. Consult the datasheet of particular solder paste for profile configurations.
Bluegiga Technologies will give following recommendations for soldering the module to ensure reliable solder
joint and operation of the module after soldering. Since the profile used is process and layout dependent, the
optimum profile should be studied case by case. Thus following recommendation should be taken as a
starting point guide.
Refer to technical documentations of particular solder paste for profile configurations
Avoid using more than one flow.
Reliability of the solder joint and self-alignment of the component are dependent on the solder volume.
Minimum of 150m stencil thickness is recommended.
Aperture size of the stencil should be 1:1 with the pad size.
A low residue, “no clean” solder paste should be used due to low mounted height of the component.

14 Certification Guidance for an End Product Using WT32i
14.1 Bluetooth End Product Listing
The Bluetooth SIG requires for every commercially available product implementing Bluetooth technology to be
listed on the Bluetooth SIG End Product Listing (EPL).
For the details on how to make the end product listin, please refer to the Bluetooth End Product Listing Guide
available in www.bluegiga.com.
14.2 CE Approval of an End-Product
When placing the CE logo to an end-product the manufacturer declares that the product is in conformity with
the requirements of the R&TTE directive. The minimum requirements for placing the CE logo to an endproduct are

Declaration of Conformity signed by the manufacturer. The person who signs the DoC must be
traceable

Generation of a technical construction file including
o Technical information about the product
o Test reports for all the relevant standards required to demonstrate that the product meets the
requirements of the R&TTE directive
The end-product manufacturer is fully responsible for the compliance of the end-product. The modules test
reports can partly be used to demonstrate the compliance but typically all the radiated tests must be re-tested
with the end product. All the conducted RF tests can be inherited from the modules test reports because the
conducted RF characteristics are not dependent on the installation of the module.

Note: Because all the radiated emissions must be tested with the end product in any case and because the
end product manufacturer is fully responsible for the compliance of the end product, any antenna can be
selected for WT32i-E, not just the antenna type that Bluegiga has used in the CE approvals.
14.3 FCC Certification of an End Product
In FCC there are three different levels of product authorization:

VERIFICATION
o Required for digital devices. The end product manufacturer verifies device to FCC rules by
performing the required tests and maintains the records in case of questions

DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY
o Required for computer peripherals and receivers. The product manufacturer tests the
emissions in a FCC recognized lab according to the relevant standards, maintains the records
in case of questions and creates DoC which is supplied with the device. FCC logo must be
placed on the product. The information about the DoC is shown in the user manual

CERTIFICATION
o Required for most of the radio products. The radio has its own FCC ID and gets listed in FCC
files https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm. The FCC ID is labeled on the
product.
When using modular certified module, re-certification with the end product is not needed provided that the
conditions shown in the modules grant are fulfilled. The end product manufacturer is still responsible for the
DoC or the Verification of the end product as required.
The limitations and restrictions related to the modular certification of WT32i are described in the FCC grant of
the module. If the conditions mentioned in the grant are met, then only labelling the end product with
“Contains: QOQWT32I” is required.
If the conditions are not met, then there are three options to remove the restriction for the end product:

Class 2 Permissive Change
o Can be done either by Bluegiga or an agent authorized by Bluegiga.
o The FCC ID of WT32i remains unchanged and the end product labelling requirements do not
change

Change of ID
o Can be done by authorization of Bluegiga
o The FCC ID of WT32i is changed.
o The end product is labelled according to the new FCC ID of the module (“Contains:
XXXYYYY”)
o NOTE: Bluegiga will not deliver modules with custom labelling.

New certification of the end product
o Done by the end product manufacturer
o Test reports of the module can be used to reduce the amount of testing
When using WT32i-E, only the antenna types approved with the module can be used. WT32i-E is certified
with a standard 2 dBi dipole. Any other type of antenna will require authorisation either through C2PC,
Change of ID or new certification.

14.3.1
Co-location with Other Transmitters
Co-location means co-transmission, not physical co-location. The radios are not considered to be in colocation
when the physical separation is more than 20 cm or if the transmissions overlap less than 30 seconds.
When two or more radios are in co-location human exposure must be evaluated as the sum of TX powers
from all the radios transmitting simultaneously. The FCC grant of WT32i does not allow co-location so it will
require authorization through C2PC, Change of ID or a new certification.
14.4 IC Certification of an End Product
IC certification is much like FCC. In IC there are two types of product authorizations:

Verification

Certification
When using a modular certified WT32i all that is needed, provided that WT32i is the only radio in the design,
is labelling the end product with “Contains IC: 5123ABGTWT32I”. The responsibility for the radio certification
remains with Bluegiga but the end product manufacturer is still responsible for the verification of the remaining
parts of the product.
Two main differences that are good to be aware of are:

If the TX power is less than 20 mW human exposure evaluation is not required

The test reports are valid for 1 year from the certification
14.5 MIC Japan Certification of an End Product
WT32i has MIC Japan type certification and it can be used directly in the end product without need for
recertification of the end product. Currently there aren’t any labelling requirements for an end product using a
certified module but it is recommended to place some indication to the product that it contains certified radio
module.
15 WT32i Certifications

15.3 FCC
WT32i 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.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Bluegiga Technologies could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End
users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. This transmitter
meets both portable and mobile limits as demonstrated in the RF Exposure Analysis. This transmitter must not
be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with FCC
multi-transmitter product procedures.
OEM Responsibilities to comply with FCC Regulations
The WT32i module has been certified for integration into products only by OEM integrators under the following
condition:

The transmitter module must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.
As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However, the
OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements
required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be met (for certain configurations or colocation with another transmitter), then the FCC and Industry Canada authorizations are no longer considered
valid and the FCC ID and IC Certification Number 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 and Industry Canada authorization.
If detachable antennas are used:
This radio transmitter has been approved by FCC to operate with a 2.7 dBi dipole antenna. Any antenna of the
same type and with equal or less gain can be used with WT32i-E without retesting. Antennas of a different
type or higher gain will require authorization from FCC.
End Product Labeling
The WT32i module is labeled with its own FCC ID. If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed
inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a
label referring to the enclosed module. In that case, the final end product must be labeled in a visible area
with the following:
Bluegiga Technologies Oy

WT32i complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and
maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio
interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically
radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
End Product Labeling
The WT32i module is labeled with its own IC Certification Number. If the IC Certification Number is not visible
when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is
installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. In that case, the final end product must
be labeled in a visible area with the following:
“Contains Transmitter Module IC: 5123A-BGTWT32I”
or
