03/ Summary
Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro true wireless noise-cancelling headphones have changed the design of previous generations of products in appearance and adopted a brand-new solution. The charging case has a rounded square shape and is treated with a high-gloss nano-NCVM coating process to achieve a streamlined light feeling like a mirror. And careful thinking about the charging case cover, the inclined charging case cover design is very stable when the cover is closed, it will automatically bounce to the open state when it is opened with a little force, and there is a sense of damping when it is closed, preventing the cover from being closed automatically.
The handle-shaped in-ear headphones are carefully designed on the back of the headphone handle. The trapezoidal structure and two different processing techniques enhance the sense of hierarchy and texture of the product. And the benefits of using this design are not only reflected in the appearance, the internal structure uses the same trapezoidal plastic bracket as the cavity, and the LDS is printed on three sides, which increases the antenna area and improves the stability of the connection and data transmission.
The internal structure is relatively complicated. The charging case circuit is divided into a main PCBA board and a FPC board. The two are connected through a BTB connector to improve assembly efficiency. The wireless charging coil is welded to the main board through a wire, and both are provided with shielding stickers to reduce electromagnetic interference.

The FPC board is equipped with a status indicator, AWINIC AW9106B LED driver, and CellWise CW2015 fuel gauge chip, which is used to estimate the remaining battery power and display the power in the pop-up window; the end of the FPC is set as a small board for charging the earphones.
The internal circuit of the earphone, the loudspeaker unit in the front cavity, the capacitive in-ear detection, and the rear-feed noise reduction microphone are connected to a cable, which is connected to the extension cable of the motherboard through the BTB connector. The cable circuit is also welded with a steel shell button battery Power for the motherboard, with a capacity of 54mAh, from VDL.
Two PCB boards are arranged in the earphone handle, which are connected by a flat cable. The upper PCB acts as a transfer board and is provided with two BTB connectors to connect the microphone and pressure sensor in the trapezoidal cover of the earphone handle. The main control bluetooth chip on the motherboard uses Qualcomm’s latest QCC5151 flagship SoC, supports bluetooth 5.2, supports adaptive active noise reduction, Qualcomm aptX adaptive audio, Qualcomm TrueWireless mirroring technology and Qualcomm’s eighth-generation cVc call noise reduction technology; a plug-in The independent ADI71251 audio codec enhances the effect of active noise reduction while ensuring high-quality sound quality.
In other aspects of Xiaomi FlipBuds Pro, TI BQ25618 charging IC is used to charge the built-in lithium-ion battery of the earphone; Willsemi WPMD2084 dual PMOS tube is used for input protection and backflow prevention function; GOODiX GH610 capacitive in-ear detection and touch 2 1 chip, used for ear detection and touch operation operation function.
