Bluetooth Low Energy (v 4.0) Hardware Engineering Guide

Bluetooth low energy is the latest version of the Bluetooth protocol developed, specified and marketed by Bluetooth special interest group. This protocol is suited and specifically designed for low energy applications.
This book talks about building products based on Bluetooth low energy technology and gives great amount of insights into the hardware development of the system associated with the technology. Various semiconductor manufacturers, the SoCs solutions for BLE, the various sensors peripheral ICs, sourcing sites are listed in the book. The book gives complete hardware engineering overview of the BLE based design. The book also gives basic overview of how to do firmware development for CC2540/41 ICs from Texas Instrument. In the end you will find a list of various start-ups founded around this technology application and also a suggestion of some ideas where this technology can be used.
The author expects the reader to have basic understanding of the electronics and is in embedded systems development profession or wants to build a BLE device and wants to know how to go about it. If you are a naive reader, you can always connect with Author. The contact details are shared at end of this book.
