Project Background
Wearables have rapidly become one on the most booming areas of consumer electronics. As a global leader in technologies for low power and smart connected devices, Microchip has developed a wearable solution. The idea of this prototype design is to jumpstart product plans and to help wearable OEMs offer innovate, reliable and faster solutions on the market. Microchip Smart Badge Demonstrator combines a unique range of embedded, wireless, touch and sensor technologies to create a turnkey system solution. The solution uses a 3.5’’ display along with an Microchip | SMART ARM® Cortex®-A5 microprocessor (SAMA5D3), a Microchip Sensor hub processor (SAM G54), Microchip MaXTouch® technology (MXT112) and Microchip SmartConnect WIFI/BLE connectivity (WILC3000).
