00:00:00,833 --> 00:00:02,966

High current occurs when iPhone starts up

2

00:00:03,233 --> 00:00:08,900

In this video, we mainly explain the common explanations for the startup of high current circuit

3

00:00:09,466 --> 00:00:11,433

After learning these terms,

4

00:00:11,566 --> 00:00:16,300

it is convenient for us to find the supply of power output in the circuit diagram

5

00:00:17,500 --> 00:00:21,033

VLDO, V is actually the voltage

6

00:00:21,533 --> 00:00:23,566

In the drawings of Apple models,

7

00:00:23,566 --> 00:00:27,100

LDO refers to the power supply output of small current,

8

00:00:28,300 --> 00:00:32,366

while BUCK refers to the power supply output of large current

9

00:00:33,266 --> 00:00:41,400

BUCK1_LX1 and LX2 represent the first and second outputs in BUCK1's power supply

10

00:00:45,300 --> 00:00:49,900

BUCK_SWI, SWI actually means SWITCHES

11

00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:58,833

A BUCK_SWI is a high-current switch that converts power supply and also stands for output

12

00:00:59,533 --> 00:01:03,933

BUCK_FB refers to the power supply feedback of large current

13

00:01:04,500 --> 00:01:08,733

For example, after the power supply output 1 power supply,

14

00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,800

its voltage is high or low, the power supply IC is unable to identify

15

00:01:15,366 --> 00:01:20,100

It will go through the output line, and then return to the power supply,

16

00:01:21,166 --> 00:01:24,366

the power supply IC detects the output voltage

17

00:01:25,266 --> 00:01:29,233

And the return of the pin position is usually represented by FB

18

00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:32,933

VDD_BUCK_VDD Indicates power supply

19

00:01:33,666 --> 00:01:38,000

The VDD_BUCK refers to the power supply input with high current,

20

00:01:38,366 --> 00:01:42,966

and the VDD_LDO refers to the power supply input with low current

21

00:01:43,733 --> 00:01:47,066

Let's go to the circuit diagram to identify these terms

22

00:01:48,466 --> 00:01:51,633

Let's look at the iPhone 12 ProMax circuit diagram

23

00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:58,500

In the schematic diagram, the U3300 refers to the power IC

24

00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:05,133

Power supply IC output, according to the term explanation, BUCK stands for power output

25

00:02:05,466 --> 00:02:11,266

The label BUCK10 here represents the high current supply of the 10th circuit

26

00:02:11,633 --> 00:02:16,633

This is BUCK11, which is the 11th power supply with high current

27

00:02:17,033 --> 00:02:19,733

It also consists of two inductors

28

00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:27,333

This pin, identified as BUCK11_FB, is a feedback to the output power supply

29

00:02:27,700 --> 00:02:30,833

Its output will be returned to the power supply IC,

30

00:02:31,266 --> 00:02:33,966

used to regulate the output voltage level

31

00:02:34,833 --> 00:02:40,633

VLDO represents the power supply output of small current, which has many paths,

32

00:02:41,166 --> 00:02:46,000

such as LDO1, LDO7, and LDO13

33

00:02:48,966 --> 00:02:51,666

Why do we label it as a small current?

34

00:02:51,900 --> 00:02:55,800

We can see that the current supplied by LDO is relatively small

35

00:02:57,766 --> 00:03:00,233

It's only powered by 50mA

36

00:03:00,733 --> 00:03:03,700

The power supply is only 150mA

37

00:03:04,166 --> 00:03:07,533

Why is BUCK called high current power supply?

38

00:03:08,233 --> 00:03:10,566

As you can see on the label behind it,

39

00:03:11,833 --> 00:03:14,266

its current can reach 4.2A

40

00:03:14,833 --> 00:03:16,900

Like this, the current is higher

41

00:03:18,733 --> 00:03:23,233

In the schematic, we can also see the identifier VDD_BUCK

42

00:03:23,633 --> 00:03:26,833

VDD_BUCK refers to the power supply input

43

00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:33,733

The power IC then converts this power supply into different BUCK power supply outputs,

44

00:03:34,066 --> 00:03:37,666

and then provides the operating voltage to the chip on the mainboard

45

00:03:38,266 --> 00:03:43,866

As we can see inside the IC block diagram, many will identify VDD_LDO

46

00:03:44,433 --> 00:03:48,000

VDD_LDO is the input to the LDO power supply,

47

00:03:48,266 --> 00:03:50,800

which is converted to the LDO power supply

48

00:03:52,633 --> 00:03:59,133

In the drawings, we can also see SWITCHES, labeled here as BUCK3 SWITCHES

49

00:04:00,033 --> 00:04:04,766

It's actually called a BUCK_SWI, and it's a switch power supply

50

00:04:05,366 --> 00:04:08,600

The left side is the power supply input of the module,

51

00:04:08,966 --> 00:04:12,133

and the right side is the power supply output of the module

52

00:04:12,933 --> 00:04:14,800

So that's it for this lesson
