What is the bare minimum an iPhone 12 Pro can run on?

I'll try to keep this quick and short.

I have an iPhone 12 Pro which is in the process of getting the back glass off, however this process has taken some time. I currently have all the components in a tray and will be putting it back together soon, but before I do, I wanted to know what was the bare minimum components I needed to get the phone to turn on. This is so that I can add components back in one by one, and be able to identify any faulty components. I would assume battery, charging port, motherboard and screen, but please advice me on this matter.

Thank you

Do you want it to be usable or literally just turn on?

I think the most critical components are going to be:

  1. Battery to provide power.
  2. Logic Board
  3. Display to see what's going on and run tests

Thanks for the response,

I just wanted to confirm that it would turn on an iPhone 12 Pro with only those components plugged in, as I have heard some people saying that iPhones only work with all the components such as Tapic Engine plugged in.

Thanks :)
