Device Overview
The EWI module is a 2.4 GHz IEEE Std.
802.15.4™compliant, surface mount
module with integrated crystal,
internal voltage regulator, matching
circuitry, and a monopole “whip”
antenna. The EWI module operates in
the non‐licensed 2.4 GHz frequency
band. The integrated module design
frees the integrator from extensive RF
and antenna design, and regulatory
The EWI module has received
regulatory approvals for modular
devices in the United States (FCC).
Modular approval removes the need
for expensive RF and antenna design,
and allows the end user to place the
EWI module inside a finished product
and not require regulatory testing for
an intentional radiator (RF
transmitter).

Printed Circuit Board
FIGURE 2-4: Bottom Copper
The MRF24J40MB module printed
circuit board is constructed with FR4
material, four layers and 0.032 inches
thick. The layers are shown in Figure
2‐2 through Figure 2‐6. The stack up
of the PCB is shown in Figure 2‐7.
FIGURE 2­2: Top Silk Screen

FIGURE 2­3: Top Copper
Monopole “whip” Antenna
The EWI has a monopole “whip”
antenna. The ground and power
planes under the components serve as
a counterpoise to the “whip” antenna.
Additional ground plane on the host
PCB will substantially enhance the
performance of the module. For best
performance, place the module on the
host PCB following the
recommendations in Section 1.2
“Mounting Details”.
The design goal was to create a
compact, low‐cost antenna with the
best radiation pattern. Figure 2‐9
shows the simulation drawing and
Figure2‐10 and Figure2‐11 show the
2D and 3D radiation patterns,
respectively. As shown by the
radiation patterns, the performance of
the antenna is dependant upon the
orientation of the module. Figure 2‐12
shows the impedance simulation and
Figure 2‐13 shows the SWR
simulation. The discrete matching
circuitry matches the impedance of
the antenna with the CC2520
transceiver IC.

Regulatory Approval
The EWI module has received
regulatory approvals for modular
devices in the United States. Modular
approval allows the end user to place
the EWI module inside a finished
product and not require regulatory
testing for an intentional radiator (RF
transmitter), provided no changes or
modifications are made to the module
circuitry. Changes or modifications
could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment. The end user
must comply with all of the
instructions provided by the Grantee,
which indicate installation and/or
operating conditions necessary for
compliance.
The integrator may still be responsible
for testing the end product for any
additional compliance requirements
required with this module, installed
(for example: digital device emission,
PC peripheral requirements, etc.) in
the specific country that the end
device will be marketed.
Annex F of the IEEE Std. 802.15.4
document has a good summary of
regulatory requirements in various
countries concerning IEEE Std.
802.15.4 devices. The standard can be
downloaded from the IEEE Standards
web page:
http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802
/802.15.html.
Refer to the specific country radio
regulations for details on regulatory
compliance.
3.1
United States
The EWI module has received Federaö
Communications Commission (FCC )
CFR47 Telecommunications, Part 15
Subpart C “Intentional Radiators”
15.247 and modular approval in
accordance with FCC Public Notice DA
00‐1407 Released: June 26, 2000, Part
15 Unlicensed Modular Transmitter
Approval. The EWI module can be
integrated into a finished product
without obtaining subsequent and
separate FCC approvals.
The EWI module has been labeled
with its own FCC ID number, and if the
FCC ID is not visible when the module
is installed inside another device, then
the outside of the finished product
into which the module is installed
must also display a label referring to
the enclosed module. This exterior
label can use wording such as the
following:
Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID:
OA3EWI
‐or‐
Contains FCC ID: OA3EWI
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.
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 in to 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.
3.1.1 EWI Settings
To meet the FCC requirements, the
following settings must be observed
by the integrator:
• The EWI transmit power setting
(RFCON3 0x203) cannot exceed ‐1.9
dB.
• Only channels 11 through 25 may be
selected (RFCON0 0x200).
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). The bulletin offers guidelines
and suggestions for evaluating
compliance.
If appropriate, compliance with
exposure guidelines for mobile and
unlicensed devices can be
accomplished by the use of warning
labels and by providing users with
information concerning minimum
separation distances from
transmitting structures and proper
installation of antennas.
The following statement must be
included as a CAUTION statement in
manuals and OEM products to alert
users of FCC RF exposure compliance:
To satisfy FCC RF exposure
requirements for mobile and base
station transmission devices, a
separation distance of 20 cm or more
should be maintained between the
antenna of this device and persons
during operation. To ensure
compliance, operation at closer than
this distance is not recommended.
The antenna(s) used for this
transmitter must not be co‐located or
operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
3.1.2 RF Exposure
All transmitters regulated by FCC
must comply with RF exposure
requirements. OET Bulletin 65
“Evaluating Compliance with FCC
Guidelines for Human Exposure to
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic
Fields” provides assistance in
determining whether proposed or
existing transmitting facilities,
operations or devices comply with
limits for human exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) fields adopted by the
If the EWI module is used in a portable
application (antenna is less than 20
cm from persons during operation),
the integrator is responsible for
performing Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) testing in accordance with
FCCrules 2.1091.
