Hello everyone,

I was looking through an iFixit teardown of my iPad3 (yeah yeah I know its old now :p) and I was interested to see the components that make up the mainboard. I think I know what most of them do, but there was a few im unfamiliar with.

I was wondering if someone in the know might be able to tell me what functions the following play on my ipad:-

The 'Toshiba Y0A0000 Memory MCP' shown in yellow. Is it something to do with LTE?

The 'Avago A5904' shown in blue, no idea what role this plays?

And finally the 'Skyworks SKY77468-17 front-end module' shown in pink/puple.

Im guessing all of these have something to do with 3/4G connection?

Thanks for your help in advance!!
