FCC certification for nrf24l01+

[bobdxcool]

Is nrf24l01+ from Nordic Semiconductors FCC certified ? It is hard to find out from their datasheet whether FCC approved ?
Is it FCC approved ?

If it is approved and I use it in my PCB and control it via my ARM cortex processor, do I need to get the entire PCB board FCC approved ?

Also, I am using sierrra wireless HL series modem chip which is FCC approved. This will also be on my PCB. So, do I have to get my PCB FCC approved again although my modem is FCC approved ?

The nrf24l01+ is an IC which will not be certified at all. Certification as far as I know always includes a complete device.

I am under the impression that even if the wireless module was certified, you would still need your finished product to get certified anyway as the housing, additional antenna, and power supply would skew any results that allowed the module to be certified anyway. Perhaps I am wrong on this.
