Bluetooth LE integrated circuit implementations were announced by a number of manufacturers (Broadcom^[1], Texas Instruments^[2], CSR^[3] and Nordic Semiconductor^[4]), starting in late 2009. An IP implementation was announced by RivieraWaves in 2010. Commonly, these implementations use software radio, so that updates to the specification can be accommodated through a device firmware upgrade.
