DEVICE OVERVIEW
1.1
The simplified block diagram of the MRF89XAM9A
module is shown in Figure 1-1. The module is based on
the Microchip Technology MRF89XA Ultra Low-Power
Sub-GHz Transceiver Integrated Circuit (IC). The
module interfaces to many popular Microchip PIC®
microcontrollers through a 3-wire serial SPI interface,
two chip selects (configuration and data), two interrupts
Interrupt Request 0 (IRQ0) and Interrupt Request 1
(IRQ1), Reset, power and ground as shown in
Figure 1-2. Table 1-1 provides the pin descriptions.
The MRF89XAM9A is an ultra low-power sub-GHz
surface mount transceiver module with integrated
crystal, internal voltage regulator, matching circuitry
and PCB antenna. The MRF89XAM9A module
operates in the United States/Canada 902–928 MHz
ISM frequency band. The integrated module design
frees the integrator from extensive RF and antenna
design, and regulatory compliance testing, ballowing
quicker time to market.
The MRF89XAM9A module is compatible with
Microchip’s MiWi™ Development Environment software
stacks. The software stacks are available as a free
download, including source code, from the Microchip’s
web site http://www.microchip.com/wireless.
Data communication and module configuration are
documented in the “MRF89XA Ultra Low-Power,
Integrated Sub-GHz Transceiver” (DS70622) Data
Sheet. For more information on specific serial interface
protocol and general register definitions, refer to the
“MRF89XA Data Sheet” and see Section 1.3,
Operation for specific register settings unique to the
MRF89XAM9A module operation to maintain
regulatory compliance.
The MRF89XAM9A module has received regulatory
approvals for modular devices in the United States
(FCC) and Canada (IC). Modular device approval
removes the need for expensive RF and antenna
design, and allows the user to place the MRF89XAM9A
module inside a finished product and it does not require
regulatory testing for an intentional radiator (RF
transmitter). To maintain conformance, refer to module
settings in Section 3.1.1, MRF89XAM9A SETTINGS
for the United States and Section 3.2.1, MRF89XAM9A
SETTINGS for Canada.

Mounting Details
The MRF89XAM9A is a surface mountable module.
The dimensions of the module are shown in Figure 13. The module PCB is 0.032" thick with castellated
mounting holes on the edge. Figure 1-4 is the
recommended
host PCB
footprint for
the
MRF89XAM9A.
The MRF89XAM9A has an integrated PCB antenna.
For the best performance, follow the mounting details
shown in Figure 1-5. It is recommended that the
module be mounted on the edge of the host PCB and
an area around the antenna, approximately 3.4"
(8.6 cm), be kept clear of metal objects for best
performance. A host PCB ground plane around the
MRF89XAM9A acts as a counterpoise to the PCB
antenna. It is recommended to extend the ground plane
at least 0.4" (1 cm) around the module.

The MRF89XAM9A module has received regulatory
approvals for modular devices in the United States and
Canada. Modular device approval allows the end user
to place the MRF89XAM9A module inside a finished
product and it does not require regulatory testing for an
intentional radiator (RF transmitter), provided no
changes or modifications are made to the module
circuitry. Changes or modifications could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment. The end
user must comply with all of the instructions provided
by the Grantee, which indicate installation and/or
operating conditions necessary for compliance.
The integrator is still responsible for testing the end
product for any additional compliance requirements
required with this module installed (digital device

concerning minimum separation distances from
transmitting structures and proper installation of
antennas.
The following statement must be included as a Caution
statement in manuals and OEM products to alert users
of the FCC RF Exposure compliance:
To satisfy FCC RF Exposure requirements for mobile
and base station transmission devices, a separation
distance of 20 cm or more should be maintained
between the antenna of this device and persons
during operation. To ensure compliance, operation at
closer than this distance is not recommended.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be
co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
If the MRF89XAM9A module is used in a portable
application (antenna is less than 20 cm from persons
during operation), the integrator is responsible for
performing the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing
in accordance with FCC rules 2.1091.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Information contained in this publication regarding device
applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.
