  S76S LoRa Wireless Communication Module  H 901-10201 Mar 22th ,2017 2 of 18   Product Name     Version Doc No Date Page  1. General Description The S76S integrates ARM Coretex®-M0+ (32-bit RISC core operating at a 32MHz frequency) MCU with LoRaTM modulation  that  provides  ultra-long  range  spread  spectrum  communication  and  high  interference  immunity whilst minimizing current consumption. S76S can achieve a sensitivity of over  -137 dBm. The  high  sensitivity combined  with  the integrated  +20  dBm power amplifier yields industry leading link budget making it optimal for any low data rate application requiring range  or  robustness.  LoRaTM  also  provides  significant  advantages  in  both  blocking  and  selectivity  over conventional  modulation  techniques,  solving  the  traditional  design  compromise  between  range,  interference immunity and energy consumption.  Feature  Small footprint:13 mm x 11 mm x 1.1 mm  LoRaTM Modem  +20 dBm constant RF output vs. V supply  Programmable bit rate up to 37500 bps  High sensitivity: down to -137 dBm  Excellent blocking immunity  Preamble detection  Automatic RF Sense and CAD with ultra-fast AFC  Payload up to 128 bytes with CRC  Embedded memories (up to 192 Kbytes of Flash memory and 20 Kbytes of RAM)

FCC statement Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement  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 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.  FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.  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, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.  IMPORTANT NOTE: Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.  This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.  Country Code selection feature to be disabled for products marketed to the US/CANADA   This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
  S76S LoRa Wireless Communication Module  H 901-10201 Mar 22th ,2017 20 of 18   Product Name     Version Doc No Date Page 1)  The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and   2)  The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna,   3)  For all products market in US, OEM has to limit the operation channels in CH1 to CH11 for 2.4G band by supplied firmware programming tool. OEM shall not supply any tool or info to the end-user regarding to Regulatory Domain change.  As long as 3 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed  IMPORTANT NOTE In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.  End Product Labeling This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be installed such that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID: 2ADWC-S76S”.  Manual Information to the End User The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module. The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in this manual.
