I. Introduction
DFCN-4 is a kind of NFC (Near Field Communication) module that could be embedded in one IT
system by simply connecting the module through I2C interface and start developing his application
software.




II. DESIGN REFERENCE
DFCN-4 build a contactless front-end towards contactless applications available on existing system.
Integrated MCU is decoupling the host controller from the timing constrains of RF communication and
allowing autonomous operation, it provides flexible and integrated power management unit for RF
front-end.


DFCN-4 reference design module consists of the following:
• Reference Design:
When the user wishes to incorporate the DFCN-4 to their device, it is strongly recommended that this
reference design is copied “as is” in the final application board to guarantee optimum performance,
regulatory compliance and lowest development time and design effort.


• MCU FPC/FFC Connector:
Allow user to connect the DFCN-4 module to the host board via FPC/FFC connector.
• Antenna Connector:
Connected to FPC antenna, please note that matching circuitry should designed on antenna.

III.     Hardware Block Diagram
  DFCN-4 is a full feature NFC module and compliant with NFC standards (NFC Forum, EMVCo,
  ETSI/SCP). DFCN-4 has an optimized architecture for low-power consumption in different
  operation modes. The RF contactless front-end is supporting various transmission modes according
  to NFCIP-1, NFCIP-2, ISO/IEC14443, ISO/IEC 15693, ISO-14443, MIFARE, and FeliCa
  specifications. The major internal components are illustrated in Figure 1-1.

General:
This modular approval is limited to OEM/Integrators installation only.
OEM integrators are responsible for ensuring that the end-user has no manual instructions to remove or
install module.


End Product Labeling (FCC)
When the module is installed in the host device, the FCC ID label must be visible through a window on
the final device or it must be visible when an access panel, door or cover is easily re-moved. If not, a
second label must be placed on the outside of the final device that contains the following text: “Contains
FCC ID: __ NKR-DFCN4__
The grantee's FCC ID can be used only when all FCC compliance requirements are met.


Required FCC Compliance Statement for Host Integration
To integrate this module into the host, the host manufacturer is responsible for the applicable FCC rules,
including the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
In the user manual of the host device, the following statements are required to be included.
   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 device 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
    radiated 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.
  Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
   void the user„s authority to operate the equipment.


FCC Module Integration Restriction:
This module has been certified by FCC as single module approval with the following restrictions:
1. The Loop antenna was verified in the conformity testing, and for compliance the antenna shall not be
   modified. A separate approval is required for all other operating configurations, including different
   antenna configurations.
2. If any other simultaneous transmission radio is installed in the host platform together with this
   module, or above restrictions cannot be kept, a separate RF exposure assessment and FCC equipment
   authorization is required.


End Product Labeling (IC)
Labeling Requirements for the Host Device (from Section 3.2.1, RSS-Gen, Issue 3, December 2010):
The host device shall be properly labeled to identify the module within the host device. The Industry
Canada certification label of a module shall be clearly visible at all times when installed in the host
device, otherwise the host device must be labeled to display the Industry Canada certification number of
the module, preceded by the words ―Contains transmitter module, or the word ―Contains, or similar
wording expressing the same meaning, as follows: "Contains transmitter module IC:_ 4441A-DFCN4_.


Required IC Compliance Statement for Host Integration
To integrate this module into the host, the host manufacturer is responsible for the applicable Industry
Canada rules, including the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to ICES-003 of the Industry
Canada Rules


In the user manual of the host device, the following statements are required to be included.
   This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to
     the following two conditions:
         (1) this device may not cause interference, and

 NFC module Delivery Specification                 9                                        V0.3


        (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired
        operation of the device.
   This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian 4441A-DFCN4.


   Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio
    exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes:
       (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
       (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le
       brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement."
   Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme 4441A-DFCN4 du Canada.


IC Module Integration Restriction:
This module has been certified by Industry Canada as modular approval with the following restrictions:
1. The Loop antenna was verified in the conformity testing, and for compliance the antenna shall not be
