Summary of Test Results
General:
All measurements are traceable to national standards.
These tests were conducted on a sample of the equipment for the purpose of
demonstrating compliance with ICES-003, Issue 4 February, 2004, Class B,
Interference-Causing Equipment Standard, Digital Apparatus in accordance with
the measurement method described in: Canadian Standards Association
Standard CAN/CSA-CEI/IEC CISPR 22-06 “Limits and Methods of Measurement
of Radio Disturbance Characteristics of Information Technology Equipment”
Frequencies were initially identified in a semi-anechoic chamber. Amplitude
measurements were made in a semi-anechoic chamber. Details of the chamber
are on file with the FCC and Industry Canada.

Description of E.U.T.:
This motherboard provides a quick evaluation platform for the MAVRK system.
It's main purpose is to provide Power, USB Connectivity, and processor
debugging for the MAVRK modules. The functions of the MAVRK Pro
motherboard are best realized when coupled with an MCU module and at least
one AFE/SCI combination module or an RF module.

Justification:
The E.U.T. was configured for testing as per typical installation. Position and
bundling of cables were investigated to establish maximum amplitude of
emissions.
Exercise Program:
The E.U.T. exercise program used during radiated and conducted testing was
designed to exercise the various system components in a manner similar to
typical use.
The EUT was in the following exercise mode:
Powered on running client software.

Section 4. Conducted Emissions (Mains ports)
Purpose:
The test is intended to demonstrate the compliance of the Equipment Under Test
(E.U.T.) to the limits for conducted disturbance as defined by CFR 47, Part 15,
Subpart B, Class B, Paragraph Number 15.107.
Specification Limits:
Limits for conducted disturbance at the mains ports

The limit decreases with the logarithm of the frequency in the range 0.15MHz to 0.5 MHz
Method of Measurement (Procedure ANSI C63.4-2003):
Measurements were made using a spectrum analyzer with 10 kHz RBW, Peak
detector. Any emissions that are close to the limit are measured using a test
receiver with 9 or 10 kHz bandwidth, CISPR Quasi-Peak detector.
See Sections 7 and 8.

The test set-up is as per the test configuration diagram.
The E.U.T. is configured as typically used.
The E.U.T. and any accessories are operated with typical load conditions.
Conducted power line measurements are made from 150 kHz to 30 MHz.
For each current carrying conductor of each power cord associated with the
E.U.T., the emission closest to the limit is recorded.
Initial measurements are made using a spectrum analyzer with 10 kHz RBW,
peak detector. If emissions are below the Average limit, the unit is deemed to
be compliant.
Any emissions within 6dB of the quasi peak limit are measured using a test
receiver with 9 kHz bandwidth, CISPR quasi-peak detector.
Bandwidths used on the test receiver are those specified in CISPR 16-1.

The test set-up in the shielded room is as per the test configuration diagram.
The E.U.T. is configured as typically used.
The E.U.T. and any accessories are operated with typical load conditions.
Radiated emissions measurements are made from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz
in accordance with the requirements of ICES-003. Equipment with oscillator
frequencies above 108 MHz were tested to the fifth harmonic or in
accordance with the requirements of CAN/CSA-CEI/IEC CISPR 22-02.
Details of the chamber are on file with the FCC and Industry Canada.
Variations in antenna height, antenna polarization, and E.U.T. azimuth are
explored to produce the emission that has the highest amplitude relative to
the limit.
If less than six emissions are better than 20 dB below the limit, the noise level
of the measuring instrument at representative frequencies is also reported.
