Thanks to "fan-out packaging": So the iPhone 7 will shrink

Thinner and lighter it should be, the iPhone 7. How Apple wants to achieve this? Not only due to the elimination of the 3.5 mm headphone jack, sets a Korean report close now. "Fan-out packaging" is supposed to be the magic formula to save valuable fractions of a millimeter.

The iPhone 7 could be even thinner than imagined.
It sounds complicated, but the result should speak for themselves: Apple wants the iPhone 7 even thinner build than the iPhone 6s, which measures 7.1 millimeters. The fact that the Californian group it wants to do without the 3.5mm standard audio port seems to various reports, a way of being open secret. But more details about Apple's plans regarding the iPhone 7 production have emerged. According to ET News the manufacturer intends to make thinner the forthcoming iOS smartphone by so-called "fan-out packaging" of individual components. was first speculated in November 2015. In addition to saving space, this technology is still provide other benefits.

Fan-out packaging the iPhone 7: better mobile signal

In this fan-out technology, the individual microchips are no longer completely packed within a chip. They are separated from their wafers, the base plate for electronic components, and stacked on a kind of artificial wafer on the same plane. This can be more I / O terminals (input / output) to accommodate in a single chip, while this can be made smaller at the same time. Apple has the news aloud ET with the Antenna Switching Module (ASM) and the radio frequency chip the iPhone. 7

Besides the already mentioned space savings inside by smaller chips the larger I / O terminal density has further advantages: As MacRumors reports, Apple is therefore likely to reduce the risk of signal loss on the iPhone. 7 The expected for September 2016 iOS smartphone could thus build a better mobile signal than its predecessors. In addition, the communication in wireless networks is likely to be less disturbed by interference. How much do these advantages in everyday life felt and how much thinner the iPhone 7 will turn out actually to be seen. Great potential, the technology but in any case.
