Concerning: Regulatory and hardware instructions for integration of Cirrus

RFID reader into host applications (concerns FCC ID: HPL5243)

This document describes the regulatory elements and measures for the integration of

a full modular short-range RFID reader into host applications. The internal company

reference of the RFID reader (or reader for short) is A800626.

The reader is a small printed circuit board with local shielding, local power supply regulation and

filtering, here is a short summary of the measures taken to control (spurious) emissions:

• The reader transmitter (chip) has a local PCB shield

• The reader module power supply is 5V+/-10% and using a local low dropout regulator a

3.3V+/-2% is used on board for all electric circuits, there is also sufficient bulk and high-

frequency decoupling

• A common-mode (CM) choke is used on the 5V power supply as a means to limit

unwanted CM conducted- and radiated emissions

• The tuning circuit uses low tolerance components (1% or 2%) to limit circuit variations

The full-modular approval allows the integration of the reader into various applications

without the need for radio type testing of the application, however, the user needs to

take a number of measures and comply with regulatory requirements.
