MRF24J40MD Datasheet, PDF (23/34 Pages) Microchip Technology – 2.4 GHz IEEE Std. 802.15.4™ RF Transceiver Module with PA/LNA

3.4 Australia
The Australia radio regulations do not provide a modu-
lar approval policy similar to the United States (FCC)
and Canada (IC). However, MRF24J40MD/ME module
RF transmitter test reports can be used in part to
demonstrate compliance in accordance with ACMA
Radio communications “Short Range Devices” Stan-
dard 2004 (The Short Range Devices standard calls up
the AS/NZS 4268:2008 industry standard). The
MRF24J40MD/ME module test reports can be used as
part of the product certification and compliance folder.
For more information on the RF transmitter test reports,
contact Microchip Technology Australia sales office.
To meet overall Australian final product compliance, the
developer must construct a compliance folder contain-
ing all relevant compliance test reports e.g. RF, EMC,
electrical safety and DoC (Declaration of Conformity)
etc. It is the responsibility of the integrator to know what
is required in the compliance folder for ACMA compli-
ance. All test reports are available on the
MRF24J40MD/ME product web page at
http://www.microchip.com. For more information on
Australia compliance, refer to the Australian Communi-
cations and Media Authority web site
http://www.acma.gov.au/.

3.5 New Zealand
The New Zealand radio regulations do not provide a
modular approval policy similar to the United States
(FCC) and Canada (IC). However, MRF24J40MD/ME
module RF transmitter test reports can be used in part
to demonstrate compliance against the New Zealand
"General User Radio License for Short Range
Devices". New Zealand Radio communications (Radio
Standards) Notice 2010 calls up the AS / NZS
4268:2008 industry standard. The MRF24J40MD/ME
module test reports can be used as part of the product
certification and compliance folder. All test reports are
available on the MRF24J40MD/ME product web page
at http://www.microchip.com. For more information on
the RF transmitter test reports, contact Microchip
Technology sales office.

the developer must construct a compliance folder con-
taining all relevant compliance test reports e.g. RF,

3.6 Other Regulatory Jurisdictions
Should other regulatory jurisdiction certification be
required by the customer, or the customer need to
recertify the module for other reasons, the MRF24J40
Radio Utility Driver Program (AN1192) can be used to
control the module.
