The National Analysis Center (NAC) AcquisitionJuly 01, 2015

Philosophy• Products are tested as

part of a complete system– The way customers really

use them• Our goal is to identify

customer affecting problems before products are released– Testing is not run with

‘blinders on’

Confidential 29

Test lab focused on interoperability and compatibility testing

Flexible test procedures which are improved with lessons learned

Passionate about finding customer affecting problems

• Closed feedback loop to integrate customer complaints

A regulatory and/or compliance test house e.g. FCC, GCF, SAR

Restricted by industry standard test plans and testing committees

Indifferent to product reviews, performance, sales and success

What you need to prepare

Samples: Typically 1 - 5 samples will be required• Will they just be doing a visual inspection, or full RF Testing?• RF Testing will usually want:

• Transmit and Receive on Static Channels (Top, Middle, Bottom)• Control modulation (e.g. CW or >98% duty cycle with modulation)• Transmit using all modes/data rates the device supports (EDR/Basic Rate)

Documents:• R&TTE / FCC Test Reports (Must be accredited for some countries)• Technical Specification• User Guide (English + Local language)• Label Artwork and Position• Internal & External Photos• PCB Artwork (Track Layout)• Schematic Diagram• BoM (Bill of Materials)

information, country priorities, and deadlines with customer

• Country assignments distributed across UL team

Project Initiation

• PM defines and works with customer to gather all required documentation

• PM distributes documentation to country handlers

• PM provides customer with project updates, weekly as a minimum!

Ongoing Project •As each country certification is

issued, you will be immediately notified.

•The invoice will then be issued for the completion of that country

•Once the final country certification is issued and the project is complete, the PM will schedule an overall project review meeting with the customer to discuss what went well and any opportunities for improvement that will be implemented.Project

Test Report Recognition

• Test report recognition is often derived from Certification Schemes or Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRAs) between country governments

• Certification Schemes

• CB Scheme• Several key MRAs are in place between the US and other countries

for wireless deviceso EU, Australia/New Zealand, Hong Kong, Korea, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan and

Vietnamo Other key MRAs that afford report recognition such as ILAC agreemento Broad recognition of EU/US test reports in emerging countries - geographic
