iPhone block diagram

2

00:00:01,933 --> 00:00:05,233

In this video, we mainly explain the iPhone block diagram

3

00:00:06,133 --> 00:00:08,833

Block diagram refers to a logical relationship

4

00:00:08,833 --> 00:00:11,333

between common chips and other chips on the mainboard

5

00:00:14,033 --> 00:00:18,066

The block diagram can visually reflect the relationship between the chips

6

00:00:18,966 --> 00:00:21,566

When we get a mainboard, there are many chips on it

7

00:00:23,366 --> 00:00:26,700

we can't tell the connection relationship between the various chips

8

00:00:26,700 --> 00:00:28,266

when we look at the physical map

9

00:00:29,266 --> 00:00:30,933

By looking at the block diagram,

10

00:00:30,933 --> 00:00:33,566

we can identify who manages different chips

11

00:00:35,900 --> 00:00:38,133

What is the use of learning block diagrams?

12

00:00:38,333 --> 00:00:41,800

When we repair, if we find that the camera does not work,

13

00:00:41,966 --> 00:00:45,566

the direction of repair should be the CPU, not the baseband

14

00:00:49,933 --> 00:00:52,366

After distinguishing the logical relationship,

15

00:00:52,433 --> 00:00:56,033

it will help us to judge the fault in the actual maintenance

16

00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,266

There are two main chips in the iPhone block diagram,

17

00:01:00,466 --> 00:01:02,766

namely the CPU and the baseband

18

00:01:03,666 --> 00:01:06,033

The baseband chip is an independent chip,

19

00:01:06,500 --> 00:01:10,066

because Apple has no baseband design and production capacity,

20

00:01:10,866 --> 00:01:15,100

and the baseband chip is purchased from Qualcomm or Intel manufacturers

21

00:01:15,566 --> 00:01:16,833

In Android machines,

22

00:01:16,833 --> 00:01:19,766

the baseband is mostly integrated with the CPU

23

00:01:20,333 --> 00:01:23,733

The CPU and the baseband control different chips respectively

24

00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,966

The CPU is mainly responsible for the application part,

25

00:01:28,066 --> 00:01:31,666

and the baseband is mainly responsible for the chip that makes phone calls

26

00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,666

The application part contains many circuits,

27

00:01:34,733 --> 00:01:38,066

such as audio circuits, hard drives, cameras,

28

00:01:38,100 --> 00:01:41,800

displays, touch screens, and charging circuit

29

00:01:41,866 --> 00:01:44,633

These circuits are all managed by the CPU

30

00:01:45,233 --> 00:01:48,466

These circuit damages may be caused by CPU damage

31

00:01:49,366 --> 00:01:52,733

The baseband is only responsible for making calls,

32

00:01:52,833 --> 00:01:55,900

such as radio frequency, power amplifier,

33

00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,200

antenna switch, filter, etc.

34

00:02:00,166 --> 00:02:03,033

These calling chips are managed by the baseband

35

00:02:03,366 --> 00:02:07,100

There are also some wire connections between the CPU and the baseband

36

00:02:08,066 --> 00:02:10,333

Then these lines are mainly used to convert the signals

37

00:02:10,333 --> 00:02:13,166

of the application part and the telephone part

38

00:02:15,233 --> 00:02:17,166

For example, when we make a phone call,

39

00:02:17,166 --> 00:02:19,566

the sound is collected by the audio circuit

40

00:02:19,933 --> 00:02:22,400

After the audio circuit collects the sound,

41

00:02:22,466 --> 00:02:27,566

it sends the signal to the CPU, the CPU converts the voice signal to the baseband,

42

00:02:27,866 --> 00:02:31,433

and the baseband transmits the voice signal through the telephone chip

43

00:02:33,333 --> 00:02:36,333

The connection relationship between chips will not change

44

00:02:36,333 --> 00:02:38,666

with the change of version in the physical map

45

00:02:40,233 --> 00:02:43,666

For example, the iPhone XR mainboard is a single-layer mainboard

46

00:02:43,666 --> 00:02:46,100

with connecting components on both sides

47

00:02:51,166 --> 00:02:54,100

Different chips have different positions in the mainboard,

48

00:02:54,766 --> 00:03:00,333

such as touch screen, wifi, bluetooth, hard disk, main audio

49

00:03:00,466 --> 00:03:03,100

These chips are in different places on the mainboard,

50

00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:05,400

but they are still controlled by the CPU

51

00:03:05,933 --> 00:03:09,233

For example, the baseband is on the reverse side of the mainboard,

52

00:03:09,433 --> 00:03:13,900

the chip for calling, radio frequency, 2G power amplifier,

53

00:03:14,066 --> 00:03:18,100

high frequency power amplifier, low frequency power amplifier

54

00:03:18,900 --> 00:03:22,233

These call-related chips are in different places on the mainboard,

55

00:03:22,466 --> 00:03:24,766

but they are still controlled by the baseband

56

00:03:25,233 --> 00:03:28,933

For example, the iPhone 11 mainboard is a double-layer mainboard,

57

00:03:29,033 --> 00:03:32,033

and the components in the mainboard are distributed differently

58

00:03:32,300 --> 00:03:36,133

Hard disk, touch screen, wifi, nfc,

59

00:03:36,366 --> 00:03:38,866

these chips belong to the application part,

60

00:03:38,966 --> 00:03:41,000

they are still managed by the CPU

61

00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,700

Chips for making calls, such as 2G power amplifier,

62

00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,200

high-frequency power amplifier, and low-frequency power amplifier,

63

00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,833

are also in different positions on the mainboard,

64

00:03:52,933 --> 00:03:55,000

but they are still managed by the baseband

65

00:03:56,066 --> 00:03:59,933

Therefore, in the real world, the change of the version structure

66

00:03:59,933 --> 00:04:03,100

will not change the logical relationship between the chips

67

00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,800

Ok, this is the introduction of the iPhone block diagram
