1. General description

The JN5179-001-M00 module family provides designers with a ready-made component

that provides a fully integrated solution for applications, using the IEEE802.15.4 standard

in the 2.4 GHz - 2.5 GHz ISM frequency band, including ZigBee Smart Energy and Home

Automation and can be quickly and easily included in product designs. The module

integrates all of the RF components required, removing the need to perform expensive RF

design and test. Products can be designed by simply connecting sensors and switches to

8.2 Peripherals

The performance of all peripherals is defined in the JN5179 Wireless Microcontroller

Datasheet (see Ref. 2).

NXP supplies all the development tools and networking stacks needed to enable

end-product development to occur quickly and efficiently. These are all freely available

from the NXP Wireless Connectivity (see Ref. 3). A range of evaluation/developer kits is

also available, allowing products to be quickly bread boarded. Efficient development of

software applications is enabled by the provision of a complete, unlimited, software

developer kit. Together with the available libraries for the IEEE802.15.4 MAC and ZigBee

PRO network stacks, this package provides everything required to develop application

code and to trial it with hardware representative of the final module.

The module can be user programmed both in development and in production using

software supplied by NXP. Access to the on-chip peripherals, MAC and network stack

software is provided through specific APIs. This information is available on the NXP

support website, together with many example applications, user guides, reference

manuals and application notes.

12. Federal Communication Commission 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 see Ref. 4. 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

•OEM integrators instructions

–The OEM integrators are responsible for ensuring that the end-user has no manual

instructions to remove or install module

–The module is limited to installation in mobile or fixed applications, according to

CFR 47 Part 2.1091(b)

–Separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including

portable configurations with respect to CFR 47 Part 2.1093 and different antenna

configurations

•User guide mandatory statements

–User's instructions of the host device must contain the following statements in

addition to operation instructions:

* “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”

* “Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment”

•FCC RF Exposure requirements

–User's instructions of the host device must contain the following instructions in

addition to operation instructions:

Avoid direct contact to the antenna, or keep it to a 20 cm minimum distance while

using this equipment. This device must not be collocated or operating in

conjunction with another antenna or transmitter.

This module has been designed to operate with antennas having a maximum gain of 0.86

dBi. Antennas having a gain greater than 0.86 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this

device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

12.1 FCC end product labelling

The final ‘end product’ should be labelled in a visible area with the following:

“Contains TX FCC ID: XXMJN5179M0”.

13. Industry Canada statement

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should

be so chosen that the equivalent isotropic radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that

permitted for successful communication.

This module has been designed to operate with antennas having a maximum gain of 0.86

dBi. Antennas having a gain greater than 0.86 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this

device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

As long as the above condition is 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).

13.1 Industry Canada end product labelling

For Industry Canada purposes the following should be used:

“Contains Industry Canada ID IC: 8764A-JN5179M0”

This device 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.

This device complies with Industry Canada RF

radiation exposure limits set forth for general

population (uncontrolled exposure). This device

must be installed to provide a separation

distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and

must not be collocated or operating in

conjunction with any other antenna or

transmitter.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR

d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils

radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est

autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) il

ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2)

l’utilisateur du dispositif doit être prêt a accepter

tout brouillage radioélectrique reçu, même si ce

brouillage est susceptible de compromettre le

fonctionnement du dispositif.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux niveaux

limites d’exigences d’exposition RF aux

personnes définies par Industrie Canada. Cet

appareil doit être installé afin d’offrir une

distance de séparation d’au moins 20 cm avec

l’utilisateur, et ne doit pas être installé à

proximité ou être utilisé en conjonction avec une

autre antenne ou un autre émetteur.
