Hi,
Does each BCM20736 chip have a unique identifier that I can use to differentiate one chip from another? I'm also a little confused about the local BD address returned by emconinfo_getAddr(void). I'm seeing that every one of my devices that I program return with the same exact MAC address. My understanding was that MAC addresses were unique to each chip, and were set by the manufacturer.
thanks,
akbar

All of our devices ship with the same BD_ADDR. If you look through the site, there are some threads that talking about generating random BD_ADDRs which is supported within the SDK and work fines within a controlled embedded type of environment. for most use cases, you will need to purchase a block of addresses from the IEEE then program during production.

Regarding a unique chip identifier, the UUID could be used: iBeacon, Unique IDs
