With the continuous development of science and technology, many smart devices now have Bluetooth function, but generally such devices need to apply for FCC-ID certification if they want to export to the US market.

American FCC-ID certification introduction

The full name of the FCC is the Federal Communications Commission of the United States. It is directly responsible to Congress. It coordinates domestic and international communications by controlling radio broadcasting, television, telecommunications, satellites, and cables, and is responsible for authorizing and managing radio frequency transmission devices and devices other than those used by the federal government. equipment. According to the relevant parts of the United States Federal Communications Regulations (CFR Part 47), all electronic products entering the United States require electromagnetic compatibility certification (FCC certification).

FCC-ID: This is the CERTIFICATION certification. FCC-ID certification is suitable for low-power transmitters such as cordless phones, remote controls for automatic doors, radio remote control toys and security alarm systems. Part 15 is a device that intentionally emits radio frequency energy, Part 15 18 industrial, scientific, and medical equipment used by mass consumers, automatic frequency conversion receivers and super-regenerative receivers, TV interface equipment, and home computers and their peripherals; products need to pass the FCC-approved testing room to complete the test and obtain a test report After that, sort out the technical data of the product, including: product detail photos, block diagrams, user manuals, etc., and send them to the FCC TCB testing room together with the test report. The FCC TCB testing room confirms that all the information is correct, and issues a certificate, authorizing an FCC ID number.

FCC ID certification type

FCC ID certification mainly includes several parts:

Testing standard: FCC Part15 Subpart C 2019, Section 15.247

Finished product certification: certification of complete wireless devices, including modules, motherboards, peripheral circuits, enclosures, etc.

Module authentication: module authentication is divided into two types, one is restricted module authentication, the other is non-restricted module authentication, restricted wireless module means that the type of installation host is limited, and non-restrictive module means that the installation host is not affected by it. However, the module can work as an independent system.

PC I certification/PC II certification: There are two types of certifications: Type I change and Type II change. When there are different changes in the certified products, how to deal with these changes during certification is basically carried out in accordance with these two types of changes.

U.S. FCC-ID certification process for Bluetooth devices

1. The customer submits the application form, signs the contract and pays;

2. The customer prepares samples for testing (wireless products require a fixed-frequency machine), and provides product information (see data requirements);

3. ZRLK issues a draft report, the client confirms, and the official report is issued;

4. If it is an FCC sDoC, the project is completed; if it is an application for an FCC ID, submit the report and technical information to TCB;

5. After the TCB audit is completed, the FCC ID certificate is issued, and ZRLK sends the official report and FCC ID certificate;

6. After the enterprise obtains the FCC certification, it can use the FCC mark and related Statement on the product.
