Does the QCA6174 based module (SX-PCEAC2) have regulatory modular certifications?

[babarhashim]

Is there a reference design that is certified for different regulatory regions?

[babarhashim · Accepted solution]

Yes the Silex SX-PCEAC2 Radio Module, based on Qualcomm's QCA6174, has modular certifications for North America, Europe, and Japan, and comes pre-certified? This means you won’t need to expend the time and cost associated with going through the certification process yourself. By taking advantage of our modular certifications, you’ll see benefits such as:

• Faster time-to-market
• Reduced risk of not passing the RF certification process
• Less time spent integrating the SX-SDMAC with your product

Some additional questions:

• is this pre-certification dependent on the driver used, ath10k or other ?
• is this pre-certification dependent on the PCB and system in which the SX-PCEAC2 module is placed ?
• concerning certification, is there a difference between the half-mini card (HMC) or surface mount (SMT) variant
