L FCC authentication
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is an independent body of the U.S. government that is directly responsible to Congress. The Engineering and Technology Department of FCC is responsible for the technical support and equipment accreditation of the Committee. According to the Federal Communications Regulations of the United States (Part 47 of CFR), all electronic products entering the United States need to be certified for electromagnetic compatibility (except for products specified in some relevant provisions), which is called FCC certification.
L FCC authentication mode
According to the relevant section of the Federal Communications Regulations of the United States (CFR 47), all electronic products entering the United States need to be certified for electromagnetic compatibility (except for some products specified in the relevant provisions). Among them, there are three common certification methods: Certification (FCC ID certificate), DoC (self-declaration), Verification (self-certification). There are great differences in the certification methods and procedures of these three products. There are relevant provisions in the FCC for the certification methods that different products can choose. The severity of its certification decreases.
I. FCC Verification Self-Certification
Such reports can be issued by laboratories accredited by the FCC. The main products include AV products, corded telephone, ordinary household appliances, digital equipment other than PC and peripheral equipment, CASSA equipment. BORY certification cycle: one week
II. FCC DOC Self-declaration
Only laboratories authorized by A2LA (American Laboratory Accreditation Association) or NVLAP (National Laboratory Accreditation System) can issue such reports and DOC announcements. Only manufacturers can label their products with FCC logo and sell them to the United States. Main products: IT products, PC and PC peripheral equipment. BORY certification cycle: 1-2 weeks
III. FCC ID Authentication
The FCC audits the samples (or photos) submitted by the applicant and the test data, and authorizes a FCC ID number to the equipment if it meets the requirements of the FCC rules. Equipment for certification include low-power transmitters such as cordless telephones, remote controls for automatic doors, radio remote control toys and safety alarm systems, devices for intentionally transmitting radio frequency energy in Part 15, industrial, scientific and medical equipment used by consumers of Part 18, automatic frequency conversion receivers and super-regenerative receivers, television interface devices, and home computers and their related devices. Peripheral. The responsible party shall make the equipment marked with FCC ID:
Note: If a certain equipment is suitable for two or three recognized types, the responsible party shall select it.
L FCC certification process
1. Conformity Statement
The responsible party (manufacturer or importer) will inspect the product in the qualified inspection organization (BORY) designated by FCC, and make a test report. If the product meets the FCC standard, the relevant label will be attached to the product, and the relevant FCC standard requirements will be declared in the user's manual, and the test report will be retained for FCC to request.
2, apply for ID
First apply for a FRN to fill in other forms. If the applicant is applying for FCC ID for the first time, a permanent Grantee Code is required. While waiting for FCC approval to distribute to Grantee Code, the applicant should take the time to test the equipment. The FCC should have approved Grantee Code by the time all the material required by the FCC is ready and the test report has been completed. The applicant completes FCC Form 731 and Form 159 online with this Code, test report and required material. After receiving Form 159 and remittances, the FCC began to accept applications for certification. The average time for the FCC to accept ID applications is 60 days. At the end of acceptance, the FCC will send the Original Grant of the FCC ID to the applicant. After the applicant has obtained the certificate, he can sell or export the corresponding products.
3. Data preparation:
To apply for FCC Verification, FCC DOC manufacturers only need to provide samples, circuit diagrams, series of differences (if any).
Information required for applying for FCC ID:
1. sample
2. Service Application Form, (NS provided format, completed and signed by the applicant)
3. Authorization Letter (NS provided format, completed and signed by the applicant):
Project and certification Authorization Letter
Certification Agreement
FCC Authorization Letter
Confidential Letter or Non-confidential Letter
4. Technical Specification (technical parameters), including the following:
A. Frequency: To specify the frequency range, or the detailed frequency point.
B. Modulation: Working mode, such as FM, HFSS, DSSS, UNPS, GSM, CDMA, etc. If it is HFSS mode, write out its principle.
C. Antenna Specification: Products with external antennas (such as walkie-talkies) need to give antenna parameters (Antenna Gain)
D. Output Power (the actual measured output power deviates from the customer's nominal permission by 5%, otherwise Fail)
5. use Manual
Be careful to add warnings
6. Chematics (Circuit Diagram)
E. Circuit Diagram: To mark component parameters, antenna
F. Component Position Map
7. lock Diagram (block diagram)
Have an antenna with a frequency
8. Circuit Description
Describe the circuit diagram/principle in words.
9. Turn up procedure
Note: This information is not required for low frequency wireless products.
Input and interphone for LPF (Low Pass Filter) related to sound products such as microphones and walkie-talkies
