General Product Information
Product Function and Intended Use

The RS9113 module integrates a multi-threaded MAC processor with integrated analog peripherals and
support for digital peripherals, baseband digital signal processor, analog front-end, crystal oscillator,
calibration OTP memory, Dual band RF transceiver, Dual-band high-power amplifiers, baluns, diplexers,
diversity switch and Quad-SPI Flash thus providing a fully-integrated solution for embedded wireless
applications. The RS9113 based chips and modules leverage and improve upon Redpine’s proven low
power innovations from Lite-FTM products (RS9110) and provide WLAN 802.11n, BT4.0 and ZigBee
convergence solution for integration into mobile and M2M communication devices. It can connect to a host
processor through SDIO, USB, SPI or UART interfaces.

Test Methodology
Radiated Emission Test

The radiated emission measurement was performed according to the procedures in ANSI C63.10-2013.
The equipment under test (EUT) was placed at the middle of the 80 cm high turntable, and the EUT is 3
meters far from the measuring antenna for below 1GHz & The equipment under test (EUT) was placed at
the middle of the 1.5m high turntable, and the EUT is 3 meters far from the measuring antenna for above
1GHz. The turntable was rotated 360゚ for obtaining the maximum emission. The height of the measuring
antennas was scanned between 1m and 4m, and the antenna rotated to repeat the measurements for
both the horizontal and vertical antenna polarizations. Repeat the measurement steps until the maximum
emissions were obtained. The measurement above 1000MHz was performed by horn antenna. The
measurement below 30MHz was performed by loop antenna.
The EUT was rotated around the X-, Y-, and Z-Axis and the results from worst case axis are recorded.
