Hi, welcome back to ChargerLAB.
It’s been a while since we posted the teardown of Anker 20W Nano Pro GaN charger.
You can click the upper right corner to take a look.
We’ve also got lots of comments, and asked us to take apart this 30W version.
So, here we go.
The Anker logo and Series 5 are printed on the front of the box.
All the specs info are on the back.
Open the box.
It continues the Anker tradition.
No cables inside.
We got the lilac purple one, which perfectly matches the purple iPhone 14 series.
All specs info are printed here.
Model is A2147.
It can support input of 100-240V~50/60Hz 1A.
And the output can be up to 30W.
It can also support PD and PPS protocols.
The input prongs can be folded for you to carry around.
The blue USB-C port is on the output panel with Anker logo.
The size of this charger is about 35.5 x 28.5 x 28.5mm (1.4 x 1.12 x 1.12 inches).
Compared with Apple 30W charger, it’s much smaller.
And the weight is about 38g (1.34 oz).
Connect the charger to ChargerLAB POWER-Z KM002C.
It supports FCP, AFC, PD3.0, PPS, QC4 protocols.
It also has four fixed PDOs of 5V3A, 9V3A, 15V2A, 20V1.5A, and two sets of PPS.
Next, let’s go ahead and take it apart.
Just pry to remove the bottom case.
The input prongs are pasted with a mylar sheet for insulation.
Take out the internal module.
It’s stacked by two PCBs.
The capacitor and transformer are between them, which makes the charger even smaller.
ChargerLAB found it adopts classical high-frequency QR flyback topology.
Let’s introduce all components inside.
The time-delay fuse is from Better Electronics.
2A 250V.
The common mode choke is wrapped with heat-resistant tape for insulation.
The SMD bridge rectifier is from ZOWIE and supports fast recovery.
1000V 3A.
Those two filter capacitors are from Yongming.
One of them is 33μF 400V.
And the other one is 22μF 400V.
The differential mode choke is wound with an I-shaped magnetic core
and is insulated with heat-shrinkable tube.
The master controller is from Southchip SC3056,
which integrates GaN FET and controller.
It can provide high energy efficiency and high reliability.
The transformer shape is EE15.
The magnetic core is wrapped with copper foil and heat-resistant tape for insulation.
The SMD Y capacitor is from Anshan KeiFat.
The SMD optocoupler is used for output voltage feedback and regulation.
The synchronous rectification controller is also from Southchip SC3503.
It supports adaptive turn-on detection and fast turn-off.
The synchronous rectification MOSFET is from AOS.
The solid capacitor for output filtering is from Yongming NPX series.
470μF 25V.
The protocol chip is from Infineon CYPD3174,
which supports multiple fast-charging protocols.
The output VBUS MOSFET is from Vanguard and adopts PDFN3333 package.
It also supports 5V logic level control.
30V, 6mΩ.
Well, that’s all components of this Anker 30W charger.
After taking it apart, we found that its structure is relatively simple,
but the stacking design makes full use of the internal space.
Also, the supported PPS protocol, and 30W output make it suitable for more devices than Apple 20W charger.
It can not only charge the iPhone, but charge your tablets, Switch, Andriod phones, etc.
OK. That’s all for today’s video.
