NRF52832 BLE Certification under ETSI EN 300 328

[simao.pinheiro]

Hello,

My company recently developed a product based on your NRF52832. After some research and direct contact with some labs, we came to the conclusion that we have to test our product under the european directive EN 300 328. The lab that we are in contact with then asked us to fill annex E.2 from the directive.

As we don't have an RF engineer on our team we are experiencing serious diffilcuties in doing just that. There are lots of information available but we don't seem to be able to find direct answers to the questions present in the form. Worse than that is the absurd amount of contradictory information that we bumped into.

With that being said, We kindly ask if you could help us with this matter, either by filling out the form or by work us through the document step by step.

Thanks in advance

Hi Simao,

I've attached a pre-filled ETSI EN 300 328 form that you can use as a reference when filling out yours. Its not the latest version, but it should be pretty similar and answer most of the questions you have. Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you very much Bjørn, this really helped a lot.

If you don't mind I would still like to ask you a question. Is there a document from where the answers to this form were based? Some sort of datasheet where these parameters (maximum Duty Cycle, Occupied Channel Bandwidth, Transmitter unwanted emissions in the OOB domain, etc) are clearly disclosed. Also, are these parameters fixed (immutable regardless of the application where your NRF52832 is inserted into) or are they configurable?
