 AMPAK Technology Inc.      www.ampak.com.tw        Proprietary & Confidential Information   Doc. NO:   1 1. AP6XXX Evaluation Board Introduction AP6XXX  Evaluation  board  (EVB)  likes  as  figure1.  That  is  designed  for  IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n/ac WLAN with integrated Bluetooth, FM, NFC and GPS application. It is subject to  provide  a  convenient  environment  for  customer’s  verification  on  WiFi  or  Bluetooth function. There are many controller pins and reserved GPIO on Evaluation board which describes as below.   Figure1. Top view of AP6XXX EVB    Interface highlights: 1.  U1: AP6XXX SIP module. 2.  J1:  UART  interface  connects  with  UART  transport  board  for  BT  and  GPS measuring, it also provides I2C (SDA/SCL) for NFC measuring. 3.  J2: Enable(H) or disable(L) Bluetooth, WiFi, NFC function and AP6335_SDIO I/O voltage selection.(H for SDIO 3.3V, L for SDIO 1.8V) 4.  J3: FM audio out interface. 5.  J5: 5V DC adaptor input connector. 6.  J6: VBAT / WL_VIO / BT_VIO for main system I/O power path. 7.  J7: 5V DC mini USB input connector. 8.  J8: Standard SDIO interfaces for Wi-Fi performance measured.

CN1: NFC interface connects with NFC antenna. 12. S1: SMA connector let RF signal in/out path, you could connect with RF cable or                     Dipole antenna. 13. S2:  SMA  connector  let  GPS  RF  signal  input,  you  could  connect  with  GPS   antenna. 14. Ct1:  WLAN  and  BT  control  pins,  strongly  recommended  WL_HWAKE(IRQ) connected to MCU. 15. Ct2:  NFC  control  pins,  strongly  recommended  N_WAKE  and  N_H_WAKE connected to MCU.  2. WiFi function verification step WIFI SDIO: Using external pull up resistors depends  on the SDIO supply voltage. For 1.8V,  the  resistance  range  is  30KΩ~82KΩ.  For  3.3V,  its  range  from  21 KΩ~41 KΩ on the four data lines and the CMD line as the following circuitry.

WiFi verification connection interface to Host SDIO  Hardware Setup:   Refer  to  Figure2  SDIO  pin  definition  connects  the  J8  interface  of  AP6XXX evaluation board to Host SDIO control interface.   Using pull high resistors (R6, R7, R10, R28, R29) that resistance is 30Kohm for 1.8V or 3.3V VDDIO pull up voltage. (Pull high resistors are un-necessary if at verification phase.)   Connects an external antenna at SMA connector on the evaluation board.   Note to the VDDIO voltage level should be the same with GPIO voltage level of Host CPU. (VDDIO 3.3V or 1.8V selection by jump J11) WiFi software setup: Please follow up software guideline of Ampak official released.

NO:   4 Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the part responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: -Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. -Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. -Connect  the  equipment  into  an  outlet  on  a  circuit  different  from  that  to  which  the  receiver  is connected. -Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that maycause undesired operation of the device. (WIFI) For product available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can be operated. Selection of other channels is not possible.
AMPAK Technology Inc.      www.ampak.com.tw Proprietary & Confidential Information Doc. NO:   3 FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement : 1.  This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.2.  This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body.This module has been granted modular approval for mobile applications. OEM integrators for host products may use the module in their final products without additional FCC certification if they meet the following conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC approvals must be obtained.  1.  The host product with the module installed must be evaluated for simultaneous transmission requirements.2.  The users manual for the host product must clearly indicate the operating requirements and conditions that must be observed to ensure compliance with current FC RF exposure guidelines.3.  To comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile-only exposure condition must not exceed {Insert Reference to Your Antenna Information Here.Note: The end product shall has the words “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: ZQ6-AP6212A”
