2. Applicable Module
This document applies specifically and solely to the following component:
- Model: QCA6234
- FCCID: 2AA9B08
- IC: 12208A-08
- FCCID: 2AA9B08
- IC: 12208A-08
3. Deviation from Specifications for Host Layout, BOM, and
Schematics
The FCC requires that host systems using SiP modular approvals copy exactly the antenna trace
design, matching component and layout used for the originally certified Rigado Inc design. The
certified design is specified in the document “QCA6234 SiP Module Certified Layout”.
An OEM integrator may wish to deviate from that specification and still utilize the available SiP
modular approvals offered by Rigado Inc. For example a host design may require modified antenna
trace length and layout, alternate PCB antenna design or use of other filter types not specified in
“QCA6234 SiP Module Certified Layout” document. Some deviations would not be allowed and
would instead require a full/new certification for FCC and other countries. For example addition of
any active components in the RF path on the host PCB would require full/new radio certifications for
the host device.
Generally, alternate PCB layout, stackup, alternate matching component values and passive filters or
diplexers may be authorized using the FCC permissive change process. However, the required steps
and responsibilities of the host integrator for the permissive change process, is not detailed in this
document. An evaluation must be done on a case-by-case basis and agreed with Rigado Inc. Please
take the steps below:
Request for Review of Deviation from Rigado Inc Design Specification:
1. Email host product details, description of deviations, proposed schematic of RF section on host
PCB (if available) to:

Sample Text for Subject Line of email: Request for review of deviation from SiP PCB design, Company
ABCD, Host Model 12345
2. The Rigado Inc Regulatory team will respond within 14 days requesting further details, informing
whether the requested deviation will be allowed with a proposed plan for the OEM Integrator to
follow if agreed.
NOTE: If a permissive change test and submission to FCC is proposed by Rigado Inc, the OEM
Integrator will be responsible for managing the project and resulting test and filing costs.

4. Validation of SiP Radio Conformance as Implemented in
Host
When a host systems copies exactly the antenna trace design, matching component and layout
specified in “QCA6234 SiP Module Certified Layout”, there is still a need to validate that the final
product design maintains compliance with radio conformance rules. Minor electrical variations in
PCB trace design, stackup and possible coupling with nearby circuits in the end system may result in
different emissions characteristics compared to the original SiP design used for standalone modular
certification testing performed by Rigado Inc.
