It enables OEMs to easily add wireless networking capability to any electronic device. Such a module is a very comprehensive solution to build sensors with meshing and self healing capability as required in a WSN scenario.24 MHz high stability Xtal is available aboard the module to perform the timing requirements as per ZigBee specifications. An additional 32.768 kHz Xtal is provided for low power operation.A single supply voltage is requested to power the module. An integrated 2.5 GHz specific Murata antenna is aboard. The voltage supply also determines the I/O ports level allowing an easy interface with the host system.128k flash and 5kbytes of static RAM are available for data and program storage.To support user defined applications, a number of peripherals such as GPIO,UART,I2C, ADC and general purpose timers are available and user selectable.The deep sleep mode with power consumption of less than 1 uA allows applications where the battery life is a key point.( for other information and details,  please refer to SN250 Datasheet available at www.st.com )www.st.com

FCC statement SPZB25012/16    Appendix A  FCC statementThis 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. Note: 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 or more 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 connectedConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.AntennaOur module  type SPZB250 is for OEM integrations only. The end-user product will be professionally installed in such a manner that only the authorized antennas are used. CautionAny changes or modifications not expressed approved by the part responsible for compliance  could cause the module to cease to comply with FCC rules part 15, and thus void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
SPZB250 FCC statement   13/16A.1 Label instructionInstruction manual for FCC ID labelingModule type:  ZigBee module  SPZB250FCC-ID:  S9NZB250AThis intends to inform you how to specify the FCC ID of our  ZigBee module SPZB250  on your final product.Based on the Public Notice from FCC, the product into which our transmitter module is installed must display a label referring to the enclosed module. The label should use wording such as “Contains Transmitter module FCC ID: S9NZB250A or “Contains FCC ID: S9NZB250A , any similar wording that expressed the same meaning may be use.It shows an example belowA.2  Special requirement for Modular applicationThe following requirements are fulfilled:1. The modular transmitter must have its own RF shielding:The RF module used on the board fulfils the emission requirements of the FCC rules without additional shielding.2.  The modular transmitter must have buffered modulation/data inputs:The module has a memory management unit inside of the IC. The processor interfacing with the external application by means general purpose I/O ( GPIO) , Uart,  SPI. The processor interfaces also the RF part of the module exchanging data and command with it. Inside the processor a flash memory is available to download the customer application and the ZigBee profiles.3.  The modular transmitter must have its own power supply regulation:The IC contains an own voltage regulation. In case of changes in the supply voltage VCC (for example caused by temperature changes or other effects), the internal voltage will be stabilized.4.  The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna requirements of Section 15.203 and 15.204: The RF module is for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) integration only. The end-user product will be professionally installed in such a manner that only the authorized antenna is used.5.  The modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration:The RF module was tested in a stand-alone configuration. 6.  The modular transmitter must be labelled with its own FCC ID number:The RF module will be labelled with its own FCC ID number. When the module is installed inside the end-product, the label is not visible. The OEM manufacturer is instructed how to apply the exterior label. Contains FCC ID: S9NZB250A
FCC statement SPZB25014/16    7.  The modular transmitter must comply with any specific rule or operating requirements applicable to the transmitter and the manufacturer must provide adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements: The EUT is compliant with all applicable FCC rules. Detail instructions are given in the product Users Guide.8.  The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure requirements. ●Maximum measured power output: 3,08 mW●Maximum antenna gain: 0,6 dBi = numeric gain 1,148 (see also FCC test report)Maximum permissible exposure defined in 47 CFR 1.1310: 1 mW/cm². The RF module operates at low power level so it does not exceed the Commission’s RF exposure guidelines limits; furthermore, Spread spectrum transmitters operate according to the Section 15.247 are categorically excluded from routine environmental evaluation.
