Do you have to do FCC certified EMC testing?
We’ve wondered this ourselves. But the FCC requires that you conduct at a minimum, EMC testing of your final product that uses an FCC-certified module. The rationale is that if the module is FCC compliant, you need to determine if your final system is EMC compliant.
Why do I need to do FCC testing?
The rationale is that if the module is FCC compliant, you need to determine if your final system is EMC compliant. However, in many cases you may want to conduct further testing on your finished product with a module to ensure you are FCC compliant (particularly if your module doesn’t supply an antenna).
