  • Here's a close up of that T1, er, TI chip?

  • Texas Instruments CD3215C00

  • We can't ID this guy, but it's in the same spot that Apple claim their T1 chip that powers the Touch Bar is.

  • That's kind of a surprise, considering there's three similar ICs peppered over the rest of this logic board, and a pair of them in the Function Keys model.

  • This could be a USB type-C power delivery controller with the T1 chip below it (APL1023/343S00135)
