fcc part 15, specifically 47 CFR Part 15, pertains to the FCC certification in the United States. It covers the electromagnetic interference (conducted and radiated interference) standards for radio frequency devices, which include both intentional and unintentional radiators. A radio frequency device refers to any equipment capable of emitting radio frequency energy through radiation, conduction, or other means during its operation. Most electronic devices fall under the category of radio frequency devices. According to this regulation, electronic products in this category must undergo FCC certification before entering the U.S. market.

How much does FCC Part 15 B certification testing cost?(图1)

The detailed content of the fcc part 15 testing standards is organized as follows:

- Subpart A – General Requirements

- Subpart B – Unintentional Radiators

- Subpart C – Intentional Radiators

- Subpart D – Unlicensed Personal Communications Service Devices

- Subpart E – Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure Devices

- Subpart F – Ultra-Wideband Operation

- Subpart G – Access Broadband Over Power Line (Access BPL)

 

Purpose of FCC Part 15 Testing Standards:

For products operating at 2.4 GHz that are to be sold in the North American market, FCC certification is required. The specific certification tests vary depending on product classification and the technology applied. This article briefly summarizes the certification requirements and testing standards for such products under FCC certification.

 

FCC Part 15 B Costs:

The cost for FCC Part 15 B certification through the JJR laboratory in China for regular products is $660, with a turnaround time of 9 days to obtain the certificate.

EMC Standards for Subpart B:

The main EMC standards, excluding Class A digital devices, include:

 

- ANSI C63.4-2014:

  - Radiated Emissions (RE): At a 3-meter distance, unintentional radiators must not exceed specified limits.

    - 30-88 MHz: 40 dB (quasi-peak)

    - 88-216 Hz: 43.5 dB (quasi-peak)

    - 216-960 MHz: 46 dB (quasi-peak)

    - Above 960 MHz: 54 dB (quasi-peak)

  - Conducted Emissions (CE): Equipment connected to the public (AC) power line must not exceed the specified RF voltage limits in the 150 kHz to 30 MHz frequency band, measured using a 50 μH/50 ohms Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN).

    - 0.15-0.5 MHz: 66-56 dB (quasi-peak), 56-46 dB (average)

    - 0.5-5 MHz: 56 dB (quasi-peak), 46 dB (average)

    - 5-30 MHz: 60 dB (quasi-peak), 50 dB (average)

 

- Class A Digital Devices EMC Standards:

  - ANSI C63.4-2014:

    - Radiated Emissions (RE): At a 10-meter distance, unintentional radiators must not exceed specified limits.

      - 30-88 MHz: 39 dB (quasi-peak)

      - 88-216 Hz: 43.5 dB (quasi-peak)

      - 216-960 MHz: 46.4 dB (quasi-peak)

      - Above 960 MHz: 49.5 dB (quasi-peak)

    - Conducted Emissions (CE): Equipment connected to the public (AC) power line must not exceed the specified RF voltage limits in the 150 kHz to 30 MHz frequency band, measured using a 50 μH/50 ohms LISN.

      - 0.15-0.5 MHz: 79 dB (quasi-peak), 66 dB (average)

      - 0.5-30 MHz: 73 dB (quasi-peak), 60 dB (average)

 

Subpart C Applicable Products:

Products with wireless remote control (requiring fcc id) under Subpart C include door access card readers, bus card readers, wireless chargers, remote control toys, wireless mice, remote control switches, wireless doorbells, anti-theft devices, Bluetooth speakers, Wi-Fi drones, and smart home products.

 

Note: Infrared remote controls do not belong to wireless remote controls and fall under Subpart B, requiring only fcc sdoc.

 

EMC Standards for Subpart C:

- ANSI C63.10-2013:

  - Radiated Emissions (RE): At a 3-meter distance, unintentional radiators must not exceed specified limits.

    - 30-88 MHz: 40 dB (quasi-peak)

    - 88-216 Hz: 43.5 dB (quasi-peak)

    - 216-960 MHz: 46 dB (quasi-peak)

    - Above 960 MHz: 54 dB (quasi-peak)

  - Conducted Emissions (CE): Equipment connected to the public (AC) power line must not exceed the specified RF voltage limits in the 150 kHz to 30 MHz frequency band, measured using a 50 μH/50 ohms LISN.

    - 0.15-0.5 MHz: 66-56 dB (quasi-peak), 56-46 dB (average)

    - 0.5-5 MHz: 56 dB (quasi-peak), 46 dB (average)

    - 5-30 MHz: 60 dB (quasi-peak), 50 dB (average)
