  • 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

Het verwijderen van het trackpad kost ons net zo weinig moeite als bij de andere twee 2016 MBP-modellen—we draaien er simpelweg dertien T5-schroeven uit en het trackpad is van ons.

En deze is een monster, want qua grootte kan deze concurreren met een iPad mini 2.

Nu weten welke van de trackpads in de familie altijd goed en gezond de vitamientjes heeft genomen.

Dat we dezelfde IC's op deze trackpad vinden als in beide 13" MBP's verrast ons niet bepaald. Echter heeft Apple, vanwege de toegenomen grootte, een tweede touch controller toe moeten voegen om dat extra stuk trackpad te kunnen digitizen:
