Apple released its latest Mac mini on October 29, 2024, equipped with M4 and M4 Pro chips. The product started accepting pre orders on October 31st and was officially released on November 8th. In the latest disassembly by renowned overseas blogger iFixit, the internal structure of the power supply of Apple Mac mini has been fully revealed, with a noteworthy discovery being the use of surface mount Y capacitors in the device. The brand logo of this Y capacitor is displayed as * * Ke, but according to industry insiders, the actual manufacturer is Sichuan Teruixiang Technology Co., Ltd.

It is understood that although this patch Y capacitor is printed with the brand logo of * * Ke, the production process and technical support are provided by Sichuan Teruixiang. The two are almost identical in terms of performance parameters and quality standards, except for brand differences. Due to Terui Xiang's industry-leading production technology and technical strength in the capacitor field, * * Ke has established a strategic partnership with Terui Xiang. In this cooperation, Sichuan Teruixiang designs and produces surface mount Y capacitor products for * * Ke as an ODM (Original Design Manufacturer), and * * Ke sells the brand. Apple is generally very strict in selecting suppliers. The application of the Y-capacitors manufactured by Teratek in Apple's latest Mac mini demonstrates that the quality of Teratek's products has been greatly recognized, and also shows the gradual penetration and influence of domestically produced components in the international high-end consumer electronics market. The exposure of this patch Y capacitor has also given people a better understanding of the manufacturing chain behind Apple, and highlighted the strength and technological accumulation of Terui Xiang in the field of capacitor devices. With the increasing demand for safety and efficiency in electronic products, the quality of Y capacitors, as one of the key components, directly affects the stability of the product. Sichuan Terui Xiang's entry into Apple's supply chain through cooperation marks that its products have reached international first-class levels in quality and technical capabilities. This is undoubtedly an important signal worth paying attention to for the domestic electronic components industry. Charging Head Network summarizes the supply chain details of Apple's latest Mac mini, revealing the gradual rise of domestic components in the international market. The adoption of surface mount Y capacitors manufactured by Terui Xiang by companies like Apple that demand high quality is not only a high recognition of its technological strength, but also reflects the steady breakthrough of domestic electronic components in the high-end consumer electronics field. I believe that in the future, with the continuous improvement of technology and quality of domestic components, more local enterprises will step onto the international high-end electronic product stage, contributing more high-quality choices to the global market.
