Foxconn WBU058-BGA Series WLAN and BT Wireless Module Owner's Manual

Q: How do I connect the module to a power supply?
A: To connect the module to a power supply, use a 3.3V and 5V power supply input as specified in the user manual.

MODULE OVERVIEW

Foxconn WBU058-BGA-VXX (XX=11, 13, 15) module is a highly integrated module that features a high-performance 2×2 dual-band WLAN subsystem, a Bluetooth v5.3 subsystem, and merged buƩom swƟch/IR receiver/LED indicator/light sensor/thermal sensor (V13 only)/far field mic (V15 only). The WLAN subsystem contains the 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax radio, and baseband that is designed to meet feature-rich wireless connecƟvity at high standards and deliver reliable, cost-effective throughput from an extended distance. OpƟmized RF architecture and baseband algorithms provide superb performance and low power consumption. Intelligent MAC design deploys a highly efficient offload engine and hardware data processing accelerators which fully offloads the Wi-Fi task of the host processor.

Federal Communications Commission Interference Statement:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, under part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protecƟon against harmful interference in a residenƟal installaƟon. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used by the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communicaƟons. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a parƟcular installaƟon. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television recepƟon, 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 separaƟon between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment to 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. Any changes or modificaƟons not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment. RF exposure statements This TransmiƩer must not be co-located or operaƟng in conjuncƟon with any other antenna or transmiter.

The final host product scroll rrequires15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmiter installed. Manufacturers of U-NII devices are responsible for ensuring frequency stability such that emission is maintained within the band of operaton under all conditions of normal operaton as specified in the user’s manual. OEM Integrator must refer to FCC KDB “996369 D04 Module Integration Guide v02” for modular transmiƩer integraƟon guidance. The module is for indoor applications only. The module may not be used for remote control of drones The antenna must be installed into the host device so that the end user does not have access to the antenna or its connector. Label Indoor Only Info & Restrictions. FCC regulations restrict the operaton of this device to indoor use only. Operaton prohibited on oil plaƞorms, cars, trains, boats, and aircraft, except that the operaton of this device is permitted in large aircraft while flying above 10,000 feet.

Industry Canada statement:
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSSs. OperaƟon is subjectto the following two conditions:

This device may not cause interference, and
This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operaƟon of the device. Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence.

L’exploitaƟon est autorisée aux deux condiƟons suivantes :

l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage;
l’uƟlisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, meme si le brouillage est suscepƟble d’en compromeƩre le foncƟonnement.

Radiaton Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with IC radiaton exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body. Déclaraton d’exposiƟon aux radiatons: Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d’exposiƟon aux rayonnements IC établies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utlisé avec un minimum de 20 cm de distance entre la source de rayonnement et voter corps. This radio transmiter (IC: 2878F-WBU058BGA has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device. Le présent émeteur radio (IC: 2878F-WBU058BGA a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctonner avec les types d’antenne énumérés cidessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal.
