Electrical Characteristics

4.2.1 DC-DC Operating Limits

The maximum supported voltage on the VREGVDD supply pin is limited under certain conditions. Maximum input voltage is a function

of temperature and the average load current over a 10-year lifetime. Figure 4.1 Lifetime average load current limit vs. Maximum input

voltage on page 10 shows the safe operating region under specific conditions. Exceeding this safe operating range may impact the

reliability and performance of the DC-DC converter.

The average load current for an application can typically be determined by examining the current profile during the time the device is

powered. For example, an application that is continuously powered which spends 99% of the time asleep consuming 2 µA and 1% of

the time active and consuming 10 mA has an average lifetime load current of about 102 µA.

Design Guidelines

7. Design Guidelines

7.1 Layout and Placement

For optimal performance of the BGM220S the following guidelines are recommended:

• Place the module 1.50 mm from the edge of the copper “keep-in” area at the middle of the long edge of the application PCB, as

illustrated in Figure 7.1 Recommended Layout for BGM220S on page 32.

• Copy the exact antenna design from Figure 7.2 Antenna Layout With Coordinates on page 33 with the values for coordinates A to

L given in Table 7.1 Antenna Polygon Coordinates, Referenced to Center of BGM220S on page 33.

• Make a cutout in all lower layers aligned with the right edge and the bottom edge of the antenna as indicated by the yellow box in

Figure 7.3 Antenna Clearance in Inner and Bottom Layers on page 34.

• Connect all ground pads directly to a solid ground plane in the top layer.

• Connect RF_2G4 to ANT_IN through a 0-ohm resistor.

• The 0-ohm gives the ability to test conducted and to evaluate the antenna impedance in the design.

• Place ground vias as close to the ground pads of the BGM220S as possible.

• Place ground vias along the antenna loop right and bottom side.

• Place ground vias along the edges of the application board.

• Do not place plastic or any other dielectric material in contact with the antenna.

• A minimum clearance of 0.5 mm is advised.

• Solder mask, conformal coating and other thin dielectric layers are acceptable directly on top of the antenna region.

Design Guidelines

7.2 Best Design Practices

The design of a good RF system relies on thoughtful placement and routing of the RF signals. The following guidelines are recommen-

ded:

• Place the BGM220S and antenna close to the center of the longest edge of the application board.

• Do not place any circuitry between the board edge and the antenna.

• Make sure to tie all GND planes in the application board together with as many vias as can be fitted.

• Generally ground planes are recommended in all areas of the application board except in the antenna keep-out area shown in Fig-

ure 7.3 Antenna Clearance in Inner and Bottom Layers on page 34.

• Open-ended stubs of copper in the outer layer ground planes must be removed if they are more than 5 mm long to avoid radiation of

spurious emissions.

• The width of the GND plane to the sides of the BGM220S will impact the efficiency of the on-board chip antenna.

• To achieve optimal performance, a GND plane width of 50 mm for BGM220S12A or 55 mm for BGM220S22A is recommended

as seen on Figure 7.4 Illustration of Recommended Board Width on page 35.

• See 4.16.1 Antenna Typical Characteristics for reference.

Figure 7.5 Non-Optimal Layout Examples on page 36 illustrates layout scenarios that will lead to severely degraded RF performance

for the application board.

7.3 Radio Performance vs. Carrier Board Size

For many applications, the carrier board size is determined by the overall form factor or size of the additional circuitry. The recommen-

ded carrier board width of 50 mm for the BGM220S12A and 55 mm for the BGM220S22A is thus not always possible in the end-appli-

cation. If another form factor is required, the antenna performance of the integrated antenna will be compromised but it may still be

sufficiently good for providing the required link quality and range of the end-application. Figure 7.6 Efficiency of the Integrated Antenna

as Function of the Carrier Board Size for BGM220S12A on page 37 and Figure 7.7 Efficiency of the Integrated Antenna as Function

of the Carrier Board Size for BGM220S22A on page 38 show the total efficiency of the integrated antenna for different carrier board

sizes. As can be seen the best performance is achieved for the carrier board size of 50 mm x 30 mm for the BGM220S12A and 55 mm

x 25 mm for the BGM220S22A, with relatively constant performance for larger boards and rapidly declining performance for smaller

boards.

The performance of all the sizes tested will be adequate for more than 15 m line-of-sight range and all of the sizes are thus usable.

WARNING: Any antenna tuning or change of the loop dimensions will void the modular certification of modules with modular

certification. In that case, a Permissive Change to the modular approval is required.

Design Guidelines

Figure 7.7. Efficiency of the Integrated Antenna as Function of the Carrier Board Size for BGM220S22A

7.4 Proximity to Other Materials

Placing plastic or any other dielectric material directly in contact with the antenna may cause performance degradation. A clearance of

minimum 0.5 mm is recommended to avoid excessive detuning of the antenna. Solder mask, conformal coating, and other thin dielec-

tric layers are acceptable directly on top of the antenna region. Any metallic objects in close proximity to the antenna will prevent the

antenna from radiating freely. The minimum recommended distance of metallic and/or conductive objects is 10 mm in any direction

from the antenna except in the directions of the application PCB ground planes.

7.5 Proximity to Human Body

Placing the module in contact with or very close to the human body will negatively impact antenna efficiency and reduce range. Further-

more, additional certification may be required if the module is used in a wearable device.

11.1 Regulatory Certifications

11.1.1 Qualified Antennas

BGM220S modules have been tested and certified both with the on-board antennas and with external antennas attached to the RF pin

(RF_2G4). Performance characteristics for the integral antennas are presented in Table 3.1 Antenna Efficiency and Peak Gain

(BGM220S12A) on page 7, Table 3.2 Antenna Efficiency and Peak Gain (BGM220S22A) on page 7 and 4.16.1 Antenna Typical Char-

acteristics. Details for the external qualified reference antennas are summarized in the table below.

Any external antenna of the same general type and of equal or less directional gain as listed in the above table, and having similar in-

band and out-of-band characteristics, can be used in the regulatory areas that have a full modular radio approval, such as USA and

Canada, as long as spot-check testing is performed to verify that no performance changes compromising compliance have been intro-

duced. In the particular FCC case, in order to comply with e-CFR Title 47, Part 15, Subpart C, Section 15.203 the module integrator

using an external antenna must ensure it has a unique connector or it is undetachable. In countries applying the ETSI standards, like

the EU countries, the radiated emissions are always tested with the end-product and the antenna type is not critical, but antennas with

higher gain may violate some of the regulatory limits.

When using instead an external antenna of a different type (such as a chip antenna, a PCB trace antenna or a patch) or having non-

similar in-band and out-of-band characteristics, but still with a gain less than or equal to the maximum gain listed in the table above, it

can be added as a permissive change to the existing grant/certificate. In most of these cases, some radiated emission testing is deman-

ded, but no modular or end-product re-certification is required.

On the other hand, all products with antennas having more gain than the maximum gain listed in the table above are very likely to re-

quire a full new end-product certification. Since the exact permissive change procedure is chosen on a case by case basis, please con-

sult your test house and/or a certification body for understanding the correct approach based on your unique design. You might also

want or need to get in touch with Silicon Labs for any authorization letter that your certification body might ask for.

11.1.2 EU - CE

The BGM220S modules have been tested against the relevant harmonized standards and are in conformity with the essential require-

ments and other relevant requirements of the Radio Equipment Directive (RED) (2014/53/EU).

Please note that every application using the BGM220S module will need to perform the radio EMC tests on the end product, according

to EN 301 489-17.

It is ultimately the responsibility of the manufacturer to ensure the compliance of the end-product as a whole. The specific product as-

sembly may have an impact to RF radiated characteristics, and manufacturers should carefully consider RF radiated testing with the

end-product assembly.

A formal Declaration of Conformity (DoC) is available at the product web page which is reachable starting from https://www.silabs.com/.

stalled (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). Additionally, investigative measurements and spot

checking are strongly recommended to verify that the full system compliance is maintained when the module is integrated, in accord-

ance to the "Host Product Testing Guidance" in FCC's KDB 996369 D04 Module Integration Guide V01.

• General Considerations

This transmitter module is tested as a subsystem and its certification does not cover the FCC Part 15 Subpart B (unintentional radia-

tor) rule requirement, which is applicable to the final host. The final host will need to be assessed for compliance to this portion of

rule requirements, if applicable.

• Manual Information to the End User

The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module, or

how to change RF related parameters, in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module.

The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warnings as shown in this manual.

• OEM / Host Manufacturer Responsibilities

OEM/Host manufacturers are ultimately responsible for the compliance of the host system.

The BGM220S12A has a limited single-modular transmitter approval due to the radio portion of the module not being contained in its

own RF shielding. Consequently, each new host will require a reassessment of radiated spurious emissions and a Class I Permis-

sive Change to the grant. The final product must be reassessed against all the essential requirements of the FCC rule such as FCC

Part 15 Subpart B before it can be placed on the US market. This includes reassessing the transmitter module for compliance with

the Radio and EMF essential requirements of the FCC rules. This module must not be incorporated into any other radio device or

system without retesting for compliance as multi-radio and combined equipment.

The BGM220S22A is a shielded design, and comes with full modular approval.

Separation

• To meet the SAR exemption for portable conditions, the minimum separation distance indicated in

Table 11.2 Minimum Separation Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemption (BGM220S12A) on page 52 and Table 11.3 Minimum

Separation Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemption (BGM220S22A) on page 52 must be maintained between the human body

and the radiator (antenna) at all times.

• This transmitter module is tested in a standalone mobile RF exposure condition, and in case of any co-located radio transmitter be-

ing allowed to transmit simultaneously, or in case of portable use at closer distances from the human body than those allowing the

exceptions rules to be applied, a separate additional SAR evaluation will be required, ultimately leading to a Class II Permissive

Change, or more rarely to a new grant.

• Important Note: In the event that these conditions cannot be met, the final product will have to undergo additional testing to evalu-

ate the RF exposure in order for the FCC authorization to remain valid, and a permissive change will have to be applied. The evalua-

tion (SAR) is in the responsibility of the end-product’s manufacturer, as well as the permissive change that can be carried out with

the help of the customer's own Telecommunication Certification Body as the grant holder’s agent.

End Product Labeling

BGM220S modules are not labeled with their own FCC ID due to their size. Instead, the packaging label contains the FCC ID. In all

cases when the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the

module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. In that case, the final end product must be labeled in a

visible area with the following:

For BGM220S12A

"Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: QOQ-BGM220S"

Or

"Contains FCC ID: QOQ-BGM220S"

For BGM220S22A

"Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: QOQ-BGM220S2"

Or

"Contains FCC ID: QOQ-BGM220S2"

Final note: As long as all the conditions in this and all the above sections are met, further RF testing of the transmitter with full modular

approval is not required. However, OEMs are still supposed to follow the good practice and the FCC recommendation to ensure the

compliance of the host by spot checking.

Nevertheless, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements which

might be mandatory with this module installed.

ISED

This radio transmitter (IC: 5123A-BGM220S for the BGM220S12A and IC: 5123A-BGM220S2 for the BGM220S22A) has been ap-

proved by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED Canada, formerly Industry Canada) to operate with the em-

bedded antenna and with the antenna type(s) listed in 11.1.1 Qualified Antennas, with the maximum permissible gain indicated. Anten-

na types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain listed, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.

This device complies with ISED’s license-exempt RSS standards. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause interference; and

2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device

RF Exposure Statement

Exception from routine SAR evaluation limits are given in RSS-102 Issue 5.

For the Portable use case, RF exposure or SAR evaluation is not required in all cases, at any distance from the human body, except

when the BGM220S22A is used at full power with the external reference dipole antenna, in which case the separation distance from the

human body must be of 13 mm or more for the exemption.

For more details, refer to the values stated in Table 11.2 Minimum Separation Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemption

(BGM220S12A) on page 52 and Table 11.3 Minimum Separation Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemption (BGM220S22A) on page

52: if the separation distances from the human body are less than the distances mentioned in the tables, then the OEM integrator is

responsible for evaluating the SAR.

The module meets the requirements for Mobile use cases when the minimum separation distance from the human body is 20 cm or

greater, in accordance to the limit(s) exposed in the RF Exposure Analysis.

OEM Responsibilities to comply with IC Regulations

The module has been certified for integration into products only by OEM integrators under the following conditions:

• The antenna must be installed such that a minimum separation distance as stated above is maintained between the radiator (anten-

na) and all persons at all times.

• The transmitter module must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

Important Note: In the event that these conditions cannot be met, the final product will have to undergo additional testing to evaluate

the RF exposure in order for the ISED authorization to remain valid, and a permissive change will have to be applied with the help of

the customer's own Telecommunication Certification Body typically acting as the certificate holder’s agent.

In the case of the BGM220S12A, this variant has a limited approval due to the radio portion of the module not being contained in its

own RF shielding: consequently, each new host will require a reassessment of the radiated spurious emissions, and the ISED will have

to be notified with a Class IV Permissive Change.

In the case of the BGM220S22A, this variant is a shielded design, and consequently comes with a full modular approval.

End Product Labeling

The BGM220S modules are not labeled with their own IC ID due to their size. Instead, the packaging label contains the IC ID. In all

cases when the IC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the

Le présent émetteur radio (IC: 5123A-BGM220S pour le BGM220S12A and IC: 5123A-BGM220S2 pour le BGM220S22A) a été appro-

uvé par Innovation, Sciences et Développement Économique Canada (ISED Canada, anciennement Industrie Canada) pour fonction-

ner avec l'antenne intégrée et le ou les types d'antenne énumérés à la section 11.1.1 Qualified Antennas, avec le gain maximal admis-

sible indiqué. Les types d'antenne non inclus dans cette liste, ayant un gainsupérieur au gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits

d'utilisation avec cet appareil. .

Ce composant est conforme aux normes RSS, exonérées de licence d'ISED. Son mode de fonctionnement est soumis aux deux condi-

tions suivantes:

1. Ce composant ne doit pas générer d’interférences.

2. Ce composant doit pouvoir être soumis à tout type de perturbation y compris celle pouvant nuire à son bon fonctionnement.

Déclaration d'exposition RF

L'exception tirée des limites courantes d'évaluation SAR est donnée dans le document RSS-102 Issue 5.

Pour le cas d'utilisation Portable, l'exposition RF ou l'évaluation SAR n'est pas nécessaire dans tous les cas, à n'importe quelle dis-

tance du corps humain, sauf lorsque le BGM220S22A est utilisé à pleine puissance avec l'antenne dipôle de référence externe, auquel

cas la distance de séparation du le corps humain doit être de 13 mm ou plus pour l'exemption.

Pour plus de détails, reportez-vous aux valeurs indiquées dans Table 11.2 Minimum Separation Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemp-

tion (BGM220S12A) on page 52 et Table 11.3 Minimum Separation Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemption (BGM220S22A) on

page 52: si les distances de séparation du corps humain sont inférieures aux distances mentionnées dans les tableaux, alors l'inté-

grateur OEM est responsable de l'évaluation du SAR.

Le module répond aux exigences des cas d'utilisation mobile lorsque la distance de séparation minimale du corps humain est de 20 cm

ou plus, conformément aux limites exposées dans l'analyse d'exposition RF.

Responsabilités des OEM pour une mise en conformité avec le Règlement du Circuit Intégré

Le module a été approuvé pour l'intégration dans des produits finaux exclusivement réalisés par des OEM sous les conditions sui-

vantes:

• L'antenne doit être installée de sorte qu'une distance de séparation minimale indiquée ci-dessus soit maintenue entre le radiateur

(antenne) et toutes les personnes avoisinante, ce à tout moment.

• Le module émetteur ne doit pas être localisé ou fonctionner avec une autre antenne ou un autre transmetteur que celle indiquée

plus haut.

Tant que les deux conditions ci-dessus sont respectées, il n’est pas nécessaire de tester ce transmetteur de façon plus poussée. Ce-

pendant, il incombe à l’intégrateur OEM de s’assurer de la bonne conformité du produit fini avec les autres normes auxquelles il pour-

rait être soumis de fait de l’utilisation de ce module (par exemple, les émissions des périphériques numériques, les exigences de pé-

riphériques PC, etc.).

Remarque Importante:Dans le cas où ces conditions ne peuvent être satisfaites (pour certaines configurations ou co-implantation

avec un autre émetteur), l'autorisation ISED n'est plus considérée comme valide et le numéro d’identification ID IC ne peut pas être

apposé sur le produit final. Dans ces circonstances, l'intégrateur OEM sera responsable de la réévaluation du produit final (y compris le

transmetteur) et de l'obtention d'une autorisation ISED distincte.

Dans le cas du BGM220S12A, l'approbation de cette variante est limitée car la partie radio du module n'est pas incluse dans son

propre blindage RF: par conséquent, chaque nouvel hôte est requis dans tous les cas pour réévaluer les émissions rayonnées et le

bureau doit être informé par un C4PC.

Dans le cas du BGM220S22A, cette variante est une conception blindée et est par conséquent livrée avec une approbation modulaire

complète.

Étiquetage des produits finis

Les modules BGM220S ne sont pas étiquetés avec leur propre ID IC en raison de leur taille. Au lieu de cela, l'étiquette d'emballage

contient l'ID IC. Dans tous les cas, lorsque l'ID IC n'est pas visible lorsque le module est intégré au sein d'un autre produit, cet autre

produit dans lequel le module est installé devra porter une étiquette faisant apparaitre les référence du module intégré. Dans un tel cas,

sur le produit final doit se trouver une étiquette aisément lisible sur laquelle figurent les informations suivantes:

Pour le BGM220S12A

“Contient le module transmetteur: 5123A-BGM220S ”

11.1.5 Proximity to Human Body

When using the BGM220S modules in an application where the radio is located close to the human body, the human RF exposure must

be taken into account. FCC, ISED, and CE all have different standards and rules for evaluating the RF exposure. In particular, each

regulator has different requirements when it comes to the exemption from having to perform RF exposure and SAR (Specific Absorption

Rate) measurements, and the minimum separation distances between the module and human body varies accordingly. The properties

of the BGM220S modules allows for the minimum separation distances detailed in the tables below for SAR evaluation exemption in

portable use cases (less than 20 cm from human body). The module is approved for the Mobile use case (more than 20 cm) without

any need for RF Exposure evaluation.

Table 11.2. Minimum Separation Distances for SAR Evaluation Exemption (BGM220S12A)

Certification

FCC

BGM220S12A

0 mm

ISED

CE

The RF exposure must always be evaluated using the end-product when transmitting with power

levels higher than 20 mW (13 dBm).

Certification

FCC

BGM220S22A

0 mm

ISED

13 mm with the reference external antenna

12 mm for integral antenna

CE

The RF exposure must always be evaluated using the end-product when transmitting with power

levels higher than 20 mW (13 dBm).

For FCC and ISED, using the module in end-products where the separation distance from the human body is smaller than that listed

above is allowed but requires evaluation of the RF exposure in the final assembly and applying for a Class 2 Permissive Change or

Change of ID to be applied to the existing FCC/ISED approvals of the module. For CE, RF exposure must be evaluated using the end-

product in all cases when transmitting at more than the power level indicated in the table.

Note: Placing the module in touch or very close to the human body will have a negative impact on the efficiency of the antenna thus a

reduced range is to be expected.

11.1.6 Japan - MIC

The BGM22S12A are certified in Japan with certification number 203-JN1080.

The BGM22S22A are certified in Japan with certification number 209-J00429.

It is the end-product manufacturer's responsibility to ensure that the module is configured to meet the limits documented in the formal

certification test report available at https://www.silabs.com/. If needed, refer to the API reference manual(s) to learn how to configure

the maximum RF TX power for the normal operations.

Since September 1, 2014 it is allowed (and highly recommended) that a manufacturer who integrates a radio module in their host

equipment places the certification mark and certification number on the outside of the host equipment. This combination of mark and

number, and their relative placement, is depicted in figure 11.1, and depending on the size of the module it might also appear on the top

shield markings of the radio module. The certification mark and certification number must be placed close to the text in the Japanese

language which is provided below. This change in the Radio Law has been made in order to enable users of the combination of host

and radio module to verify if they are actually using a radio device which is approved for use in Japan

Certification Text to be Placed on the Outside Surface of the Host Equipment:

Translation of the text:

“This equipment contains specified radio equipment that has been certified to the Technical Regulation Conformity Certification under

the Radio Law.”

The "Giteki" marking shown in the figures below must be affixed to an easily noticeable section of the specified radio equipment.

Note that additional information may be required if the device is also subject to a telecom approval.

The BGM220S22A modules have a RF certification for import and use in South-Korea.

Certification number is: R-R-BGT-BGM220S2

When integrating the RF-certified module, an end-product is exempted from doing the RF emission testing, as long as the recommen-

ded design guidance is followed, and the approved antennas are used.

EMC testing, and any other relevant test, might still be required for full compliance.

11.2 Standards-Based Certifications

11.2.1 Bluetooth Qualification

The BGM220S modules come at launch with a pre-qualified Bluetooth Low Energy RF-PHY Tested Component having Declaration ID

of D044526 and QDID of 155407, and having a listing date of 2020-09-04.

Because the validity set by the SIG for Tested Components is currently of 3 years, during the product lifetime Silicon Labs will renew

this Component as it expires, whenever applicable. Renewed Tested Components will come with new DIDs and QDIDs, and these will

be then referred to in end-product listings. Such new DIDs and QDIDs can be discovered starting from the original ones.

This module’s RF-PHY Tested Component should be combined with the latest Wireless Gecko Link Layer and Host pre-qualified Com-

ponents by Silicon Labs, when in the process of qualifying an end-product embedding the BGM220S via the SIG’s Launch Studio.
