, includes the BCM20737S Bluetooth
Smart SIP module and six microelectromechani-
cal systems (MEMS) sensors. From individual
developers to startups and to established OEMs,
Broadcom's WICED Sense tag delivers complex
technology in an easy-to-use and easy-to-under-
stand development kit. Using this kit, it takes only
a few minutes to set up a Bluetooth Smart con-
nection between the tag and a user's smartphone
or tablet, reducing design time and accelerating
time to market for an ever-expanding internet-of-
things (IoT) ecosystem.
