Wireless Autani Transceiver (WAT) Users Manual 5. 5. Antenna Antenna WAT Module includes an integrated PCB trace antenna. The PCB antenna employs a meandering F-antenna design that is very compact and supports omni-directional signal radiation. To maximize the antenna efficiency an adequate ground should be provided on the base board. The position of the module on the base board and overall design of the product enclosure contributes to the antenna’s performance.

Wireless Autani Transceiver (WAT) Users Manual 6.3 6. Dimensions Keep-out Area For maximum antenna performance hang the antenna keep-out area over the edge of the base board. Placing a ground plane on the layer directly beneath the WAT Module will allow you to run traces under this area. The WAT board can be placed on a base board without antenna overhang as long as all copper is kept away from the antenna keep-out area.
Wireless Autani Transceiver (WAT) Users Manual 7. 7. Certifications Certifications 7.1 FCC – United State The WAT Module complies with Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission rules and regulations. To continue compliance with Part 15 the end user MUST include a visible label on the outside of the final product which indicates the internal radio module is FCC approved. The exterior label can use wording such as: “Contains FCC ID: V8NWAT1000119”. To meet the section 15.
Wireless Autani Transceiver (WAT) Users Manual 8. 8. Processing Processing !!WARNING!! The WAT Module contains extremely sensitive electronic circuitry. Handle board with proper ESD protocol at all times. 8.1 Reflow Soldering A convection soldering oven is recommended. Preheat the assembly at a rate of 3oC/sec and stop at a final temperature of 150-200oC. Limit time above solder paste liquid temperatures to 20-40 seconds, do not exceed 260oC.
Wireless Autani Transceiver (WAT) Users Manual 8.2 8. Processing Repeat Reflow Soldering Repeated reflow after the WAT Module has been populated is discouraged. 8.3 Wave Soldering If wave soldering is required on the base board due to the use of leaded components, it is recommended that only a single pass is used. 8.4 Hand Soldering Hand soldering is possible but should be done with care to avoid excessive heat application to the WAT Module. 8.
