Are nRF5x official devkits CE/FCC certified?

If I want to use official devkits (like nRF51/2-DK) for a project do I need to test and certify them for FCC/CE? Does FCC apply even on the software running on the device or it's just a matter of hardware?

  • I have both nRF52 DK's and neither of them have the FCC or CE logo's.

    I presume they are not certified as they are not a product, and fall under the category of an evaluation / development device in terms of the FCC legal requirements.

    Anyway, as soon as you connect any other hardware to a certified board, it becomes a new product in terms of the FCC and CE and would need to be certified as a whole including your additional hardware e.g. if you connected a shield.
