The RF200A embeds Synapse’s SNAP OS, the industry’s first Internet-enabled, wireless mesh network operating system into the Atmel ATmega128RFA1 single-chip AVR® microcontroller with an integrated transceiver that delivers up to 2Mbits/sec. These low-cost modules can have a range of up to three miles and power consumption as low as 1.4 µA to enable a new generation of batterydriven systems. SNAP’s on-board Python interpreter provides for rapid application development and over-the-air programming, while Atmel’s low-power RF single-chip design saves board space and lowers the overall Bill of Materials and power consumption. The RF200A is approved as an FCC Part 15 unlicensed, modular, transmitter. The modules provide up to 16 channels of operation in the ISM 2.4GHz frequency band. The RF200A module contains both a power amplifier for transmission and a low noise amplifier in the receive path for extended range.

Figure 2.1 FCC Label 2.1.2 FCC Notices WARNING: The RF200A modules have been tested by the FCC for use with other products without further certification (as per FCC Section 2.1091). Changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by Synapse Wireless Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. NOTICE: OEM’s must certify final end product to comply with unintentional radiators (FCC Section 15.107 and 15.109) before declaring compliance of their final product to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. NOTICE: The RF200A modules have been certified for remote and base radio applications. If the module will be used for portable applications, the device must undergo SAR testing. 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 Model RF200A Data Sheet ©2013 Synapse Wireless, Inc. · · Document Number 430133-01D 500 Discovery Drive, Huntsville, AL 35806 · 256-852-7888 · · Page 11 of 15 synapse-wireless.com 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 connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. 2.1.3 FCC Approved Antennas The RF200A modules are FCC-approved for fixed base station and mobile applications. The FCC requirement for mobile applications states that the antenna must be mounted at least 20 cm (8 in) from nearby persons. Notice: To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be chosen so that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication. The RF200PD1 module has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below in Table 2.1. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. The RF200APF1 has a built-in F-antenna. Table 2.1.
