Description
The SPSGRF-868 and SPSGRF-915 are easy-to- use, low power sub-GHz modules based on the SPIRIT1 RF transceiver, operating respectively in the 868 MHz SRD and 915 MHz ISM bands. The modules provide a complete RF platform in a tiny form factor. The SPSGRF series enables wireless connectivity in electronic devices, requiring no RF experience or expertise for integration into the final product. As an FCC, IC, and CE certified solution, the SPSGRF series optimizes the time- to-market of end applications. The SPSGRF-915 is an FCC certified module (FCC ID: S9NSPSGRF) and IC certified (IC 8976C- SPSGRF), while the SPSGRF-868 is certified CE0051. The modules are designed for maximum performance in minimal space and include 4 programmable I/O pins and SPI serial interfaces.

6 Regulatory compliance
6.1 FCC certification
The SPSGRF-915 module has been tested and found compliant with the FCC part 15 rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in approved installations. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate 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 may not occur in a particular installation. 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. Modifications or changes to this equipment not expressly approved by STMicroelectronics may render void the user's authority to operate this equipment. Modular approval FCC ID: S9NSPSGRF In accordance with FCC part 15, the SPSGRF-915 is listed as a modular transmitter device. This module is evaluated for stand-alone use only. Finished products incorporating multiple transmitters must comply with collocation and RF exposure requirements in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures. Collocated transmitters operating in portable RF exposure conditions (e.g. <20 cm from persons including but not limited to body worn and hand-held devices) may require separate approval.
6.1.1 Labeling instructions
When integrating the SPSGRF-915 into the final product, the OEM must ensure that the FCC labeling requirements are satisfied. A statement must be included on the exterior of the final product which indicates that the product includes a certified module. The label should state the following (or similar wording that conveys the same meaning): The OEM must include the following statements on the exterior of the final product unless the product is too small (e.g. less than 4 x 4 inches): 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 2. this device must accept any interference received, including any interference that may cause undesired operation.

6.1.2 Product manual instructions
This section applies to OEM final products containing the SPSGRF-915 module, subject to FCC compliance. The final product manual must contain the following statement (or a similar statement that conveys the same meaning): “Warning: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. (Part. 15.21)” In the case where an OEM seeks Class B (residential) limits for the final product, the following statement must be included in the final product manual: “Note: This equipment 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 radiate 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.” In the case where an OEM seeks the lesser category of a Class A digital device for the final product, the following statement must be included in the final product manual: “Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his expense.”
6.2 IC certification
The SPSGRF-915 module has been tested and found compliant with the IC RSS-210 rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in approved installations.
