2. Radio part
Bluetooth™ Module, model UGPZ1 has fully integrated 2.4GHz radio transceiver with Class1 power
amplifier, receiver and frequency-hopping synthesizer. The model, UGPZ2 is the almost same as UGPZ1,
except for output power and no power amplifier in the RF front-end circuit.
The model, UGPZ3 is the almost same as UGPZ2, except for output power, no power amplifier in the RF
front-end circuit and overall dimensions.
In order to facilitate power management, each section of the radio may be powered up and down separately.
Various software controllable switches have been implemented to control power to the transmitter, the
frequency synthesizer/VCO, the receiver and the LNA, if provided.
3. Base band part
Bluetooth™ Module contains link controller, which performs all the real-time functions of the Bluetooth™
baseband protocol layer, including data transfer and connection management. The device also controls
states of operation enables sniff, park and hold modes of operation. Real-time functions such as frequency-
hopping burst timing and clock synchronization are also implemented in this hardware. Further processing is
required to format the data into the Bluetooth™ packet format before it may be applied to the GFSK
modulator. On the receive side the controller performs error correction and de-scrambling before de-
packetizing the incoming payload and storing it in RX buffers.
The link controller hardware also implements the basic, repetitive actions of paging, inquiry, page or inquiry
scans and the general Bluetooth™ modes of park and sniff. This ensures that the processor used to
implement the Link Manager and other lower layer protocol can be kept inactive.
4. Eligibility requirements for regulatory approval:
As a part of regulatory certification, ALPS will provide an approval for certain countries in the form of modular
approval (MA) .
The regulatory approval is required for each country throughout world where the end-user wishes to use
ALPS UGPZ series into entire end product, if no certification program for the modular approval exists in the
country.
The countries that can accept MA include the USA, Canada, and certain European countries.
The conditions for approval of ALPS UGPZ series and related information for each country are described
below.
ALPS wishes that our customer for end product would contact with us about what module of UGPZ series
has been certified for each country.
4.1 USA
4.1.1 Compliance statement to FCC
This module complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following 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.
4.1.2 RF exposure compliance
This module may be installed into any end product both mobile and portable applications.
Because the module only radiates very low power levels, it complies with RF exposure requirements.
According to Supplement C, Edition 01-01 to OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01 spread spectrum
transmitters are categorically excluded from routine environmental evaluation because of the low power
level, where there is a high likelihood of compliance with RF exposure standards.

emit RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; consult Safety Code 6,
obtainable from Health Canada’s website www.hc-sc.gc.ca/rpb.
4.2.3 Meaning of certification number
The meaning of the marking of “IC:1788F-UGPZ#” on the UGPZ module means: “1788F-UGPZ#” is the
certification number, and the term “IC’ before the equipment certification number only signifies that
Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: CWTUGPZ1
