Abstract
VDC is pleased to announce the release of its 12th edition of Switching Power
Supplies: Global Market Demand Analysis. This two-volume report presents an
analysis of the current size and future growth of the worldwide merchant
markets for AC/DC switching power supplies and DC/DC converters.
- Merchant internal AC/DC switching power supplies are defined as:
- Modules or assemblies that convert an AC line voltage into the necessary
DC voltage(s) to drive the various components, printed circuit boards,
subassemblies, etc. in electrical and electronic equipment. "Merchant"
refers to power supplies that are sold to others as a component rather than
consumed by the manufacturer for integration into another product.
"Internal" indicates that these power supplies are typically integrated into
other equipment or systems by the customer as opposed to being external to
the product, such as adapters for laptops.
- Merchant market DC/DC converters are defined as:
- Modules or printed circuit board assemblies with mounted individual
components (not single integrated circuits) that convert one DC voltage to
another. Merchant refers to DC/DC converters that are sold to others as a
component to be integrated into equipment or systems.
