- Don’t miss the Apple 338S00770-B0 power management IC, holding down the fort.
- Texas Instruments TPS65657B0 display power management IC is in charge of your screen’s power.
- And finally, the NXP Semiconductor CBTL1616A0 display port multiplexer, managing those display signals like a pro.
Step 2
- Logic board, side 1 (cont.):
- Texas Instruments CD3710A1 VCSEL array driver: This little guy helps power up your device's laser functions. Pretty cool, right?
- Texas Instruments USB 2.0 dual repeater: A small but mighty part that helps your device send and receive data faster. It's all about speed.
- ON Semiconductor DC-DC converter: This bad boy keeps your power flow steady, so your device stays running smoothly. It's like a power manager on the inside.
- Possibly a NXP Semiconductor power management IC: Another piece of the power puzzle that helps control your device's energy needs. It's got your back.
- Possibly a NXP Semiconductor load switch: Think of it as the traffic controller of your device's power system. It tells the power where to go when needed.
Step 3
- Logic board, side 1 (cont.):
- Apple/USI U1 ultra-wideband chip - the sleek chip that helps your device stay connected with all the best tech.
- Skyworks SKY58271-19 front-end module - this little guy is handling your signal like a pro.
- Skyworks SKY58276-17 front-end module - another helper in making sure your device can hear and speak loud and clear.
- Likely a Broadcom AFEM-8225 front-end module - because your device needs the right gear for top-tier performance.
- Likely a Skyworks SKY59723 power amplifier module - powering up the signals with extra oomph!
- Likely a Murata 141 RF switch module - flipping signals around to keep everything smooth.
- Likely Broadcom filters - making sure no unwanted noise interferes with your device's sweet sound.
Step 4
- Logic board, side 1 (cont.):
- Alps HSCDTD00xA electronic compass
Step 5
- Let's take a peek at the logic board on sides 2 and 3, shall we? Here's what you'll find: a cool 128 GB of Kioxia NAND flash memory, making storage a breeze! You'll also spot the STMicroelectronics ST33Jxxx secure microcontroller with eSIM, keeping things secure and connected. Keep an eye out for the likely Apple/Cirrus Logic 338S00817 audio processor, along with the 338S00739 audio codec and the 338S00537 audio amplifier, which work together to pump up the sound. Don't forget the Broadcom BCM59365 wireless power receiver, powering up your device wirelessly, and last but not least, there's probably an Analog Devices haptic driver, ensuring your touch feels just right!
Step 6
- Logic board—side 2 and 3, rolling right along:
- Check out the Qualcomm PMX60 power management IC. It’s the brains behind your battery’s smooth operation.
- Spot the Apple 338S00616 power management IC—this little guy keeps your power flowing just right.
- Say hello to the Texas Instruments LM3567A1 LED flash driver. It’s the reason your flash isn’t just for show.
- Find the ON Semiconductor DC-DC converter. This chip helps keep those voltages in check.
- Look for what’s likely a STMicroelectronics DC-DC converter—another key player in the power game.
- Up next: the Nexperia 74AVC1T45 3-state voltage level translator/transceiver, keeping signals talking across different voltages.
- And lastly, the Nexperia LSF0101 1-bit bidirectional voltage level translator. It’s small, but mighty when it comes to smooth communication.
Step 7
- Logic board, sides 2 and 3 (cont.):
- USI 339S00761 WiFi/Bluetooth module
- Qualcomm SDX60M 5G modem
- Possibly a Qualcomm SDR868 5G RF transceiver
- Broadcom AFEM-8215 front-end module
- Possibly a Skyworks SKY53838-17 front-end module
- NXP Semiconductor SN210V NFC controller with secure element
- Likely a Skyworks SKY57217 power amplifier module
Step 8
- Logic board, sides 2 and 3—let’s keep cruising:
- Spot the Qualcomm QET510 envelope tracker living its best life.
- Another Qualcomm QET5100 tracker hanging out next door.
- That’s probably a Qorvo envelope tracker—kicking it behind the scenes.
- See that? Likely a Skyworks SKY514xx RF switch module, doing some switching magic.
- Another Skyworks RF switch making things happen.
- Murata antenna switch module—likely the one calling the signal shots.
- And finally, an antenna tuning switch vibing with the rest.
Step 9
- Logic board, sides 2 and 3 (yep, we’re still going!):
- Spot the Bosch Sensortec 6-axis accelerometer/gyroscope—it’s the little tech wizard keeping track of all your wild flips and spins.
