  • The chip labeled as 274 U141 031 hides the Bosch BMP180 MEMS Pressure Sensor, which should be responsible for the "Barometer" feature inside the Nexus.

  • The Bosch BMP180 is identified by its markings CMD 173 as noted by our friends at Chipworks.

  • Check out the wire bonds on the third image. This is a very, very small chip.

  • Just how small is it? Well, here's how a U.S. dime looks like next to the chip (indicated by red arrow)
