And that completely undoes two of the three factors in AC’s favor. (And efficient DC-DC converters kill the transformer.) No, we don’t think that there’s going to be a switch overnight ...

For this discussion, the flyback converter used in portable AC-DC supplies is simplified with a new semiconductor material—a gallium-nitride (GaN) high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT).

The global AC-DC power supply adapter market revenue was around US$ 12 billion in 2023 and is estimated to reach US$ 24.1 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8% during ...
