  • Removing the trackpad requires as little effort as it did with other two 2016 MBP models—we simply spin out thirteen T5 screws and the trackpad is ours.

  • And this one is a monster, nearly holding its own beside an iPad mini 2.

  • Now we know which trackpad in the family has been taking its vitamins.

  • We're not surprised to find the same ICs on this trackpad as we did in both 13" MBPs. However, with the increased size, Apple had to add a second touch controller to digitize all that extra trackpad:

  • STMicroelectronics STM32F103VB ARM Cortex-M3 MCU

  • Broadcom BCM5976C1KUFBG Touch Controller x2

  • Maxim Integrated MAX11291ENX 24-Bit, 6-Channel Delta-Sigma ADC

  • Monolithic Power Systems MP24830 white LED driver

Das Entfernen des Trackpads ist genauso einfach wie bei den anderen beiden 2016er MBP Modellen. Wir entfernen einfach dreizehn T3 Schrauben und das Trackpad gehört uns.

Und dieses Trackpad hier ist ein Monster, es ist fast so groß wie ein iPad mini 2.

Jetzt wissen wir, welches Trackpad in der Familie fleißig seine Vitamine eingenommen hat.

Es überrascht uns nicht im Geringsten, die gleichen ICs auf diesem Trackpad zu finden, wie auf den beiden 13" MBPs. Allerdings musste Apple aufgrund der gestiegenen Größe einen zweiten Touch Controller hinzufügen, um die ganze zusätzliche Trackpadfläche zu digitalisieren:
