BT33 Bluetooth Module OEM General User and

Installation Guide

I. OEM Usage Instructions

Installation

The BT33 is a surface mount Bluetooth module supplied on a 24 pin, 6-layer

PCB. The final assembly recommended reflow profiles are:

For RoHS/Pb-free applications, Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5 solder is recommended.

§ Maximum peak temperature of 230° - 240°C (below 250°C).

§ Maximum rise and fall slope after liquidous of < 2°C/second.

§ Maximum rise and fall slope after liquidous of < 3°C/second.

§ Maximum time at liquidous of 40 – 80 seconds.

Layout

The area around the BT33 module should be free of any ground planes, trace

routings, or metal for at least 6mm from the antenna in all directions. Traces should

not be routed underneath the module.

Crystal Tuning and Power Calibration

These steps are performed by the manufacturer, and must NOT be modified from

the settings applied during manufacturing. Any changes to these settings may void

the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

Operating Conditions

The permitted operating and storage temperatures, power supply requirements, and

I/O tolerances are specified in the BT33 Datasheet.

RF Exposure Warning

This equipment complies with FCC and IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an

uncontrolled environment. This device must be installed in accordance with provided

instructions and it must be operated with a minimum of 20 cm spacing between

antennas and all persons’ bodies (excluding extremities of hands, wrists and feet)

during wireless mode of operation. Further, this transmitter must not be co-located or

operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

II. Notice of FCC and IC Regulatory Compliance This module has been tested and found to comply with the FCC Part15 Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in approved installations. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

5) The module is labeled with the proper FCC ID and IC number, and labeling instructions are provided to OEM end users for external product labels. 6) The module does have instruction for proper use. 7) The module does meet the FCC and IC RF regulations. Limited Modular Transmitter Approval, is supported, instead of Modular Transmitter Approval, because the following condition is not met: 1) The module does not have its own RF shielding.
