RE:    FCC ModularApproval
FCC ID:      QoQ11


Dear Application Examiner

Bluegiga Technologies Inc. / Blustooth module, FCC ID: QOQ11, would like to have your
authorization as a modular approval. The requirements of section 15.212 of FCC rules have
been met and shown on the following statements.


 REQUIREMENT                     Yes / No      COMMENT
 The modular transmitter       YES             The module has a shield
 must have its own RF
 shielding.
 The modular transmitter       YES             The module has buffered data inputs
 must have buffered                            integrated to EFRSZ chip
 modulation/data inputs (if
 such inputs are provided)
 to ensure that the module
 will comply with Part 15
 requirements under
 conditions of excessive
 data rates or over—
 modulation.

 The modular transmitter       YES             The module has its own power supply
 must haveits own power                        regulation.
 supply regulation.

 The modular transmitter       YES             An embedded chip antenna is
 must comply with the                          permanently attached to the BGM11S1A
 antenna requirements of                       and BGM11S2A.
 Section 15.203 and
 15.204(c). The antenna
 must either be
 permanently attached or
 employ a "unique"
 antenna coupler (at all
 connections between the
 module and the antenna,
 including the cable). Any
 antenna used with the
 module must be approved
 with the module, either at
 the


time of inftial authorization
or through a Class II
permissive change. The
"professional installation"
provision of Section
15.203 may not be
applied to modules.

The modular transmitter         YES   The module was tested in a standalone
must be tested in a stand—            configuration using a test kit.
alone configuration, Le.,
the module must not be
inside anotherdevice
during testing. This is
intended to demonstrate
that the module is capable
of complying with Part 15
emission limits regardless
of the device into which it
is eventually installed.
Unless the ransmitter
module will be battery
powered, it must comply
with the AC line
conducted requirements
found in Section 15.207.
AC or DC power lines and
data input/output lines
connected to the module
must not contain ferrites,
unless they will be
marketed with the module
(see Section 15.27(a)).
The length of these lines
shall be length typical of
actual use or, if that length
is unknown, at least 10
centimeters
to insure that there is no
coupling between the
case of the module and
supporting equipment.
Any accessories,
peripherals, or support
equipment connected to
the module during testing
shall be unmodified or
commercially available
(see Section 15.31(}).
The modular transmitter         YES   The module is labeled with its own FCC
must be labeled with its              ID number
own FCC ID number, and,
if the FCC ID is not visible
when the moduleis
installed inside another


device, then the outside of
the device 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:
XYZMODEL1® or
"Contains FCC ID:
XYZMODEL1." Any
similar wording that
expresses the same
meaning may be used.
The Grantee may sither
provide such a label, an
example of which must be
included in the application
for equipment
authorization, or, must
provide adequate
instructions along with the
module which explain this
requirement. In the latter
case, a copy of these
instructions must be
included in the
application for equipment
authorization.

The modular transmitter       YES   The module is compliant with all
must comply with any                applicable FCC rules. Detailed

the transmifter and the
manufacturer must
provide adequate
instructions along with the
module to explain any
such requirements. A
copy of these instructions
must be
included in the application
for equipment
authorization. For
example, there are very
strict operational and
timing requirements that
must be met before a
transmitteris authorized
for operation under
Section 15.231. For
instance, data


 transmission is prohibited,
 except for operation under
 Section 15.231(e), in
 which case there are
 separate field strength
 level and timing
 requirements. Compliance
 with these requirements
 must be assured.

 The madular transmitter       YESs   The module complies with RF exposure

 requirements. For
 example, FCC Rules in
 Sections 2.1091, 2.1098
 and specific Sections of
 Part 15, including
 15.319(), 15.407(0,
 15.253(f) and 15.255(g),
 require that Unlicensed
 PCS, UNII and
 millimeter wave devices
 perform routine
 environmental evaluation
 for RF exposure to
 demonstrate compliance.
 In addition, spread
 spectrum transmitters
 operating under Section
 15.247 are required to
 address RF Exposure
 compliance in accordance
 with Section
 15.247(b)(4). Modular
 transmitters approved
 under other Sections of
 Part 15, when necessary,
 may also need to address
 certain RF Exposure
 concerns, typically by
 providing specific
 installation and operating
 instructions for users,
 installers and other
 interested parties to
 ensure compliance.


Best regards
