FCC certification - with Nordic chips

[Pavel Prekop]

Dear Nordic Semiconductor Team,

I am a representative of ELKO EP company and we are currently in the process of obtaining FCC certification for our products that utilize your nRF52840-QFAA chips. Our products are already certified under the Matter standard, and now we are seeking to achieve FCC compliance.

I would like to inquire about the following:

1. FCC Certification Support:  Could you provide specific information about your options and resources that could assist us?

2. Testing and Documentation: Can you recommend best practices for testing our products that include nRF52840-QFAA chips and preparing the necessary documentation for FCC certification?

3. References and Case Studies: Do you have any references or case studies that demonstrate how other customers successfully achieved FCC certification for products using your chips?

Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your response.

Best regards,

Pavel Prekop, Head of laboratory

Certrifying the nRF52840 for FCC is straight forward, but you will need a FCC acredited test lab to do this for you. They will provide you with the necessary information

You have to setup the radio to transmitt with 100% duty cycle, full output power on channel 2402, 2440 and 2480 MHz, plus constant RX on the same three channels. It's best to use the radio test example for this: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/samples/peripheral/radio_test/README.html
