Have you ever wondered why the cost of charging for iOS devices is about $ 30, and an almost identical-looking charger from Samsung is $ 6-10? It's no secret that Apple pays great attention to detail, but most users believe that Cupertino is inflating its value by “winding up” the brand's popularity. Blogger Ken Shirriff disassembled the charger in order to
to find out how difficult it is.
The "internals" of the device consist of two boards: one is responsible for handling the high voltage input, and the second for low output voltage and disconnecting the charger in case of overheating or too high input voltage.
The charger is equipped with Flextronics' patented resonant loop clip that absorbs transformer voltage surges.
The device has a bunch of components that are rarely used on other chargers. They are used to reduce electromagnetic interference.
It is also worth noting the very tiny dimensions of the components used. In the photo below, you can compare the size of the resistors with rice and mustard grain.
To sum it up, it's worth noting that Apple's power adapter is a high quality power supply. Apple went to extra cost to reduce EMI so as not to harm the touchscreen. Apple's iPhone charger incorporates a wealth of technology in a small space, further proving the excellence of Apple's engineers.
If suddenly, your charger or more complex devices such as computers or laptops have stopped working stably, then we advise you to contact only professional craftsmen. Computer repair on Krasnopresnenskaya here.
