MRF24WB0MA/MRF24WB0MB
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, MRF24WB0MA/
MRF24WB0MB 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 MRF24WB0MA/
MRF24WB0MB module test reports can be used as
part of the product certification and compliance folder.
All test reports are available on the MRF24WB0MA/
MRF24WB0MB product web page at http://www.micro-
chip.com. For more information on the RF transmitter
test reports, contact Microchip Technology sales office.
Information on the New Zealand short range devices
license can be found in the following web sites:
http://www.rsm.govt.nz/cms/licensees/types-oflicence/
general-user-licences/short-range-devices.
and
http://www.rsm.govt.nz/cms/policy-and-planning/spec-
trum-policy-overview/legislation/gazette-notices/prod-
uct-compliance/radiocommunications-radiostandards-
notice-2010.
To meet overall New Zealand final product compliance,
the developer must construct a compliance folder with
all relevant compliance test reports, for example RF,
EMC, electrical safety and DoC (Declaration of Confor-
mity) etc. The developer must know what is required in
the compliance folder for New Zealand Radio commu-
nications. For more information on New Zealand com-
pliance, refer to the web site http://www.rsm.govt.nz/.
3.5.1
EXTERNAL ANTENNA
REQUIREMENTS
The compliance testing listed in Table 3-1 was per-
formed using the antenna types listed in Table 2-2 in
Section 2.8, External Antenna.

3.6 Korea
The MRF24WB0MA/MRF24WB0MB module has
received certification of conformity in accordance with
the Radio Waves Act. Integration of this module into a
final product does not require additional radio
certification provided installation instructions are
followed and no modifications of the module are
allowed.
3.6.1
LABELING AND USER
INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS
The label on the final product which contains the
MRF24WB0MA/MRF24WB0MB module must follow
KC marking requirements. The integrator of the module
should refer to the labeling requirements for Korea
available on the Korea Communications Commission
(KCC) web site.
The MRF24WB0MA/MRF24WB0MB module is labeled
with its own KC mark. The final product requires the KC
mark and certificate number of the module:
3.6.2
EXTERNAL ANTENNA
REQUIREMENTS
The Korea compliance testing was performed using the
antenna types listed in Table 2-2 in Section 2.8, External
Antenna.

3.7 Other Regulatory Jurisdictions
Other regulatory jurisdiction certification must be
required by the customer, or the customer need to
recertify the module for other reasons, a certification
utility is available. The utility runs on a Window’s PC
and utilizes a USB to SPI converter to interface to the
MRF24WB0M module. To use the utility, the
MRF24WB0M module must be out of Reset and not
accessed by the system host. That is, the SPI signals
to the MRF24WB0M must be tri-state, with Reset and
Hibernate deasserted. The following signals will need
to be brought from the MRF24WB0M for connection to
the PC (through the USB adapter):
• SDO
• SDI
• CS
• SCK
• INT
• GND

documentation, contact local Microchip sales office.
