iFixIt Posts Magic Trackpad Teardown




iFixIt has gone through the difficult process of tearing down the new Apple Magic Trackpad. The site notes that "this is not for the faint of heart. A copious amount of heat, guitar picks, and plastic opening tools were required to make this thing budge."

● At the heart of the Magic Trackpad's logic board lies a Broadcom BCM2042 for Bluetooth connectivity. This is the same chip used by the Magic Mouse for data transmission.

● A Broadcom BCM5974 touch screen controller chip provides Multi-touch functionality. This is the same chip you'll find in the iPhone, iPod Touch, and MacBook Air.
