Last week, Apple began selling its new 35W dual USB-C charger in two versions, offering both a regular and a compact model. While they perform the same functions at the same capacities, there’s a small design tweak on the exterior of the product.
The cool cats at the ChargerLAB YouTube channel posted a full teardown vide, and cited the following list of components:
Input Fuse: SCHURTER
Bridge Rectifier: LITE-ON MRS30M (3A 1000V)
Electrolytic Capacitor: AiSHi, CapXon
Master Control Chip: PI ZN1431C
Transformer: Salcomp
Synchronous Rectifier: AOS AONS62920
Solid Capacitor: CapXon
MOSFET: ON Semiconductor NTTFS4C05N
Protocol Chip: Infineon CYPD4236-LQXQT
Interestingly, Apple promises 35W of power when charging a single device and 17.5W of power when charging two devices at once.
What’s interesting to see in the video is how symmetrical it is the internal components of the charger. For this product, Apple promises up to 35W when charging one device and 17.5W of power when charging two devices at once.
The folks at 9to5Mac also noted the following thanks to tests performed over the weekend:
- If you connect a Mac notebook and an iPhone or iPad, each device receives up to 17.5W;
- If you connect an iPhone and an iPad, each device receives up to 17.5W;
- If you connect a Mac notebook or iPhone and an Apple Watch or AirPods, the Mac notebook or iPhone receives up to 27.5W and the Apple Watch or AirPods receive up to 7.5W.
