Antenna
An antenna is used to receive and transmit radiofrequency. It is inbuilt in the
cabinet of the mobile phone. These are called the inbuilt antenna.
2. Battery
The battery is the only source of power supply to a mobile phone. Three types of
battery are primarily used in mobile cell phones and tablets:
* Nickel – Cadmium (Ni-CD)
* Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni – MH)
* Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion).
3. Battery Charger
Several types of Chargers are used to recharge the battery of a mobile cell phone.
These include standard battery chargers, Travel Adaptor (TA), Cigar Lighter Adaptor
(CLA) etc.
4. Switch or Key Tip
These tiny switches are used for the keypad.
5. Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The CPU is the Main Control Section of a mobile phone. It controls all the function
and does all the processing work.
6. RAM (Random Access Memory)
RAM is an erasable memory where older data and information can be erased, and new
data and information can be stored.
7. ROM (Read Only Memory)
A memory that can only be read but cannot be erased. Programmable ROM (PROM) and
Erasable ROM (EROM) are some other types of ROM that can be erased.
8. Visual Display
This part of the mobile phone generates light to display all information. Display
of a cell phone can be classified as follows:
* LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
* VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display)
* TFT (Thin Film Transistor Display).
9. Antenna Switch
It functions to receive, transmit, and switch different frequencies like GSM, DCS
and PCS.
10. IF-IC
This IC is also called Hager IC, MJOLNER IC and RF IC. It performs the function of
amplification of receiving signal, mixing and demodulation.
11. VCO (Voltage Control Oscillator)
It controls the frequency.
12. Audio IC
The primary function of this IC is to handle and control the audio frequency and
produce sound.
13. UEM IC (Universal Energy Module)
It performs several functions like power supply, charging, audio processing,
ringer, vibrator etc.
14. LED (Light Emitting Diode)
It is used to produce light on keyboard and display.
15. RF Crystal
It is the primary and fundamental crystal on any mobile phone. Crystals of mainly
13 MHz, 26 MHz, 19.2 MHz or 36.4 MHz are used in cell phones. The phone becomes
dead if this crystal is faulty.
16. Ear Speaker
This Ear Speaker is mounted on the top of the mobile phone. It helps in listening
to the sound during a phone call.
17. Microphone
It converts voice signal to an electric signal or tone signal during transmission.
This signal is then sent to the Audio IC.
18. Vibrator Motor
It Provides vibration alert during incoming calls or messages in silent mode or
when the option is On.
19. SIM card
SIM stands for Subscriber Identity Module. It is used in GSM Mobile phones. The
microchip in this card is where all data and information related to the USER is
stored. Without a SIM Card, a GSM phone is of no good use.
20. SIM card Socket
Holds the SIM card and acts like a SIM reader or SIM writer.
21. Memory Card
External memory storage card is used to store data such as photos, videos, audio.
SD card, Mini SD Card and Micro SD cards are used as external memory.
22. External Antenna Socket
An external antenna can be connected with the help of accessories in this socket.
This helps to increase the range of the internal antenna.
23. RETU IC
RETU IC is UEM regulator IC which generates sim, mic, buzzer, display, and sound.
24. TAHVO IC
THAVO IC is a charging regulator IC.
25. OMAP Module
It Performs the function of processing application software and control UI
software.
26. Hands-free Connector
Helps carry on a conversation without holding the phone in hand by using Head Phone
or Ear Phone.
27. Flash IC
This memory inside the phone is used to store programs and non-volatile data.
28. RAP 3G IC
This IC has been used as the core with non-Flash and SD RAM module in the modem
section. RAP3G module works as a cellular protocol with WCDMA and GSM.
28. USB Connector
This connector is used to download data and for charging the phone.
30. Joy Stick
It is used to ease the function of the user. User can control the operation of a
cell phone by setting the positions of the joystick.
31. Software Connector Parts
They are used for flashing Software or Operating System. The Phone may be connected
to a Computer through this connector to solve software related problems.
32. Connector Tip
It is used to interface Speaker, Ringer, Vibrator and Antenna.
33. Testing Points
The output of various types of signals is checked from these tips with the help of
CRO.
34. LTR
This regulator is used to regulate the voltage.
35. AVILMA IC, BETTY IC, UIM Card
BETTY IC regulates charging, light and charging voltage and also supply power.
AVILMA is uem power IC. It manages power regulation, mic, buzzer, speaker.
