Qualification of nRF52832

[Sensorion]

Hi all,

We are ready to have our product released and need to have it tested and certified for release in the following markets:

• North America = FCC IC
• Europe = EC
• Japan = Telec

and have it bluetooth certified so we can have the symbol.

We based our board off of the reference designs and now I am wondering if there are any certs that Nordic has that we can piggy pack off of or do we have to start from ground zero.

And where can I find assistance on getting this process done?

Cheers

Hi Sensorion,

Our stack and chip is already qualified, you only need to do Declaration for your product. Please follow the instruction here: www.bluetooth.com/.../declare-your-product

The QDIDs for nRF52832 can be found here infocenter.nordicsemi.com/.../ble_qdid_qual_matrix.html

Follow up question as I educate myself in this area,

As I now understand it, there are two main types of testing, intentional radiation and unintentional radiation testing. Also I believe that Noridic does the intentional radiation tests and that those are covered under the QDID. Is this correct?

This means that we end users only need to perform the tests for unintentional radiation tests, as well as any others such as ROHS or safety tests as required by the target country.

Anything I got wrong?
