How to Certify your Bluetooth product?

Marko S

I'm reading "How to Certify your Bluetooth product" at http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/How_to_Certify_your_Bluetooth_product.

But what does "If you have created your own RF Circuitry, you need to perform PHY test before creating the EPL to ensure that your design is compliant." mean?

What qualifies as an own RF circuitry?

Any non certified RF circuitry needs to be certified. Even if you copy the TI reference design, it needs to be certified.

If you use certified BLE modules or TI BLE EMs as your HW, you will not be required to certify them as they already are.

How do I check if a BLE module is certified? Is it listed at www.bluetooth.com?

Usually BLE module vendors are required to certify their modules, not only for BLE, but also standards like FCC, ETSI.

TI EMs for BLE are certified as well.

you should be able to look up the info on www.bluetooth.org
