Mobile Phone Parts Name List
1. Mobile phone Battery
• Mobile phone Battery Lithium ion batteries are considered to be one of the best batteries used in mobile phones. Currently, such batteries are widely used. Such batteries have low self-discharging ratio and can be used for longer than other batteries and weigh less. If the working capacity of the batteries decreases, it should be fully discharged and recharged. Lithium ion is the most common battery because it can store the most energy in the smallest space. That’s measured in terms of specific energy density, which refers to how much energy, in Watt-hours, a kilogram of battery could hold. For lithium ion, the figure can be between 150 and 250 Wh/kg, while a nickel metal hydride (or NiMH) battery can hold about 100 Wh/kg. In other words, lithium ion batteries are smaller and lighter than other types, and that means smaller devices with longer battery life. Some of the above batteries have three pins and some have four pins. If there are three PINs, Positive, BSI and Negative. BSI-Battery Standard Identification BTEMP-Battery Temperature Management BSI: The PIN is placed on the mobile phone to identify the resistance inside the battery and the type of battery and the charging sensor. Btemp: The pin is placed to manage the temperature of the battery. The TDR (thermistor) is placed inside the battery of the mobile phone. Since this Btemp pin of the battery is directly connected to the power IC, the supply from the battery becomes the thermistor. So the voltage is calculated by the power IC and the temperature of the battery is obtained. This PIN is not found in all mobile phone batteries. Battery capacity The capacity of a battery is measured in milliampere-hours (or mAh), which indicates how much energy the battery can deliver over time. For instance, if a battery has a rating of 1000 mAh, it could deliver 1000 milliamps of power for 1 hour. If your device uses 500 milliamps of power, the battery should last about 2 hours. The maximum voltage, ampere, watts it can give to all the batteries used in the mobile phone is written on the battery as shown in the picture below. The voltage in the battery of a mobile phone ranges from 3.7 to a maximum of 4.8 but the ampere may vary. The more amperes written on the battery, the more backup you can give. 2. Mobile phone Housing
The outer shell for the protection of all the parts inside the mobile phone is called housing. The design and color may vary according to the housing mobile phone set. The housing of some of the mobile phone sets in our market is available in the market. If it is broken or discolored, a new change can be made. The main part of phone housing is made of polycarbonate, and the metallic one is made of aluminum. Nowadays, among all the plastic stuff on the shelfs, metallic phone housings are more noticeable. Usually, aluminum and magnesium are used for housings. Aluminum is very solid and light, but it is difficult to make the needed shapes and details. Magnesium alloys are comparatively good in molding, but comparing to aluminum alloys, magnesium ones are not corrosion resistant and require painting.3. Mobile phone Touchpad
• An electronic visual display that the user can easily control with the finger of his hand is called a touch pad. Apart from mobile phones, touch pads are also used in computer monitors, laptops and gaming devices. There are many types of touch pads. The touch pad currently used in smart phones is very responsive, so it works at the slightest touch. Indium tin oxide coding is done without layers (insulators) in such touch pad glass. The touch pad contains several layers of material. The top layer is the pad that you touch. Beneath it are layers (separated by very thin insulation) containing horizontal and vertical rows of electrodes that form a grid. Beneath these layers is a circuit board to which the electrode layers are connected. The layers with electrodes are charged with a constant alternating current. As the finger approaches the electrode grid, the current is interrupted and the interruption is detected by the circuit board. The initial location where the finger touches the pad is registered so that subsequent finger movement will be related to that initial point. 4. Mobile phone Display
• The mobile phone display is really like a computer monitor. The display of the mobile phone is considered an important part because the CPU sends all the data in the mobile phone to the display as per the order given on the keypad or touch pad, including the level of the antenna tower, battery level, phone numbers, photos, mobile phone menu. Nowadays, most expensive multimedia sets use high resolution displays. The display used in mobile phones can be of the following types. The display, when combined with the touch element, is ‘the’ major element of the user interface and as such we go to great lengths when testing screens during our review process to measure a displays quality by measuring Contrast Ratio, Color Calibration, Brightness and Sunlight Legibility. LCD : liquid crystal display technology A liquid crystal display is the most common display type among mobile phones because of its low power consumption and good image quality. They are generally easy to read, even under direct sunlight.The smallest element of an image displayed on a LCD is the pixel. Each pixel normally consists of a layer of molecules aligned between two transparent electrodes, and two polarizing filters.
LED- light emitting diodes technology A semiconductor LED diode that emits light when charged with electricity. They come in diverse colors and some LEDs even contain multiple elements and are therefore capable of emitting light with different colors.
TFT:Thin Film Transistor technology TFT technology is an active-matrix technology, meaning that a tiny circuit (a transistor) is located next to each pixel, allowing the pixel to be turned on and off individually. This permits faster response time and greater contrast compared to passive-matrix technology.
OLED:Organic Light Emitting Diode technology The term OLED is actually an acronym, and stands for organic light-emitting diode. For the unaware, a light-emitting diode is basically just a light source, and they’re used widely in electronics. But OLED is different because of the organic part. In an organic diode, there’s a thin film of organic compound that emits light when you pass an electric current through it.
IPS:In-Place Switching technology (IPS-In-Plane Switching panel) An active matrix LCD screen technology developed by Hitachi in the mid-1990s that provides more uniform color reproduction and greater viewing angles than traditional twisted nematic (TN) LCDs. Maturing for more than a decade, IPS was deployed in tab phone and various smart phones. Viewers appreciate the wide angle and color quality, because tablets are widely used as movie players and photo albums.
AMOLED/Super AMOLED: Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode technology AMOLED display :When compared with a regular LCD display an AMOLED display consumes less power, provides more vivid picture quality, and renders faster motion response as compared to other display technologies such as LCD. However,
Super AMOLED display : It consists of a set of thin film layers of electroluminescent power-producing organic compounds and a pixel-modulating matrix. Super AMOLED is a more advanced version and it integrates touch-sensors and the actual screen in a single layer.
POLED/PMOLED: Plastic Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode (Flexible display) POLED display: or Plastic Light Emitting Diode, is a display technology that uses a flexible plastic substrate such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) instead of glass for the electroluminescent organic semiconductor to be deposited. The use of more malleable plastic instead of glass allows the display panel to be bent, folded or rolled up without breakage.
PMOLED dispaly:Passive Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode (PMOLED) displays drive a row of pixels in the display, rather than individual pixels like AMOLED. PMOLED is cheaper to make than AMOLED, but have a restricted resolution and are not as power efficient as AMOLED, which makes PMOLED a weak candidate for high-resolution smartphone screens. PMOLED screens light up one row of pixels at a time, turning off the line as it moves to light the next row. Thus, if there are 100 lines in a PMOLED display, each line of the display is energized 1/100th of the time. This limits the size of the PMOLED display to a maximum of 5 inches with today’s technology.
• The display of mobile phones has different layers as shown in the picture below. 5. Mobile phone PCB-Printed Circuit Board-Motherboard)
• When you open the housing of the mobile phone, you will see a board with all the components connected as shown below. This board is called PCB (Motherboard). This motherboard is the most important part of a mobile phone. Motherboard is commonly exist in Electronics devices and mobile phones. Since it contains of a variety of metals and semiconductors, it is difficult to recover the materials in PCB. The latest smartphones available on the market today, researchers and engineers are constantly developing new ways to make our phones smaller, faster and more efficient. Due to the increase in capabilities of Motherboard, Motherboard have gotten smaller in size and more powerful. This lets manufacturers put more components in a smaller amount of space to deliver all of the features. Circuit-tracing is a term used by mobile phone repair technicians to check broken tracks on the PCB (Motherboard). Many of the times problems come in cell phones, if the tracks get broken. These tracks are not visible as they are drawn inside the circuit boards. Most of these motherboards have 7-10 layers which have tracks/lines going from one end to another for supply of voltage and signals.
6. Mobile phone Antenna Pad
• A steel plate / leaf is placed on top of the mobile phone set. This is called antenna pad. In most mobile phones, the antenna pad is placed at the top, but in some sets it may be placed at the bottom. In the beginning, the mobile phone sets that came in the market used to have aerial instead of such a plate, but now there is no aerial in the mobile phone sets available in the market. Both the incoming and outgoing signals from the mobile phone set come and go through this antenna pad. This plate is well integrated with the motherboard.
7. Mobile phone Flex cable
The flexible cable used to connect two PCBs of a mobile phone is called a flex cable. The texture of this cable may vary according to the mobile phone set. Flex cables are designed to fit onto a motherboard, usually by connecting onto a socket. These sockets are made up of tiny pins which when correctly aligned, sit flush into place and create a connection between the flex and the motherboard, allowing the flex to draw power and start it’s designed function. Just like the texture of something is shown below.8. Mobile phone Microphone(Analog & Digital)
The microphone receives the sound waves we speak and converts them into electrical waves. The microphone is placed at the bottom of the mobile phone set. Inside the microphone is a diagram (a sheet of shiny thin plastic) that shakes as we speak. When we move in and out in this way, a kind of electric wave is generated and our sound wave enters. There are two types of microphones used in mobile phone sets.
• A. Mobile phone Ordinary microphone(Electret Microphone) An Ordinary or electret microphone is a type of condenser microphone that has a permanently-polarized capsule.The capsule, which acts as a parallel-plate capacitor, is charged via a quasi-permanent electret material that is applied to either the front plate (diaphragm) or stationary backplate. With a permanent charge across the plates, any change in capacitance in the electret condenser capsule creates an inversely proportional change in voltage across the plates. Ordinary mobile phones use a two-pin microphone as shown in the picture below. B. Mobile phone Digital microphone(Mems Microphone) A MEMS Microphone(micro-electromechanical systems) mic is a pressure-sensitive diaphragm etched into a silicon wafer via MEMS processing. MEMS mics are largely based on electret capsules and typically have onboard preamps and analog-to-digital converters. MEMS mics are also known as digital mic,mic chips or silicon mics. A digital microphone MEMS design will typically have an additional metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) chip that acts as an analog-to-digital converter. These chips effectively take the amplified analog audio signals and convert them into digital data. These ADCs allow digital MEMS microphones to be more easily integrated with digital products. Of all the smart mobile phone sets coming in the market today, digital microphone is the most used. This microphone has three,four or five pins as shown in the picture below.

9. Mobile phone Speaker(Ear & Ringer)
• The speaker converts electrical waves into sound waves. The speakers used in mobile phones are very small in size. The inner structure of the speaker has a permanent magnet ring with a temporary metal in the middle and a coil between the metal and the permanent magnet. There is also a plastic cone on top of the coil and the outer metal body. When an electrical signal with voltage is given to this speaker, the coil inside it shakes. When a signal in the form of AC flows through the coil, there is a variable magnetic shock. There are two types of speakers use in a mobile phone.
A. Air speaker
B. Ringer speaker (handsfree)
• The air speaker is a bit smaller in size than the ringer speaker. The exterior design of the speaker is as shown below. 10. Mobile phone Camara Cameras are devices used to record video to take photos on mobiles. Such cameras are placed in different megapixels according to the capacity of the mobile phone. The more megapixels the camera has, the more light this lens can capture even in low light. There are generally six types of camera available today, namely your standard main camera, ultra-wide camera, telephoto or periscope zoom camera, macro camera, monochrome camera, and depth sensor camera. 11. Mobile phone Vi****or
• The vi****or used in mobile phones is like a small motor. It rotates when the supply voltage is given, thus vibrating the mobile phone. The IC that controls the vi****or switches on and off the supply voltage for a while. When the voltage is given in this way, it turns on and off for a while. The structure of the vi****or is as shown below. 12. Mobile phone Charging pad/charging flex
