Direct Current (DC) Power Supplies - Global Market Outlook (2021 - 2028)
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Direct Current (DC) Power Supplies Market is accounted for $367.24 million in 2021 and is expected to reach $582.03 million by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period. Direct current (DC) power supplies refer to an embedded circuit that provides constant and stabilized power supply to electronic modules. They are commonly available in two forms, namely switching and linear power supplies. The switching variants are compact and light-weight, offer higher power efficiency and can be efficiently used for devices with low, medium and high power output. The linear variants use large transformers to drop the voltage to alternating current (AC) and then convert it into DC voltage. DC power supplies offer various benefits, such as repeatable power on and off with minimal input related problems and higher accuracy in read backs, thereby eliminating the need for external meters, shunts, relays and switching calibration.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Surge in use in automotive applications
Rapid growth in the electronics industry with increasing adoption of automation profiting the DC power supply market. Power battery testing, fuel cell testing, AC/DC charging station, DC-DC converter testing, on-board chargers & charging interface testing, and high-power battery testing are some of the areas wherein automotive electronic testing is done using DC power supplies which is likely to expand the DC power supply market. With increasing population, automotive industry is also growing and this boosts the DC power supply market.
Restraint:
Rapid growth of the electronic business
Rapid growth of the electronic business is set to impel the DC power supply market over the coming years. Besides, the DC power supply marker is required to relatively increment with the consistent development of the industrial sector. Growing basic electronic applications require exact voltage, which should be settled against fluctuations in input voltage and burden with providing the exact voltage as per the requirement.
Opportunity:
New product launches
Key sight launched a new series of single and dual output power supplies that provides more usable power, bench friendly design with low background noise, and large display. The launch of new power supplies address customers’ bench applications that require power up to 400 W. Key sight’s new E36200 series enables engineers to test and use their designs across multiple end-use industries including automotive electronics, consumer goods, medical devices, power tools, and industrial applications.
Threat:
Imposition of regional/country-wise regulatory compliance
A number of regulatory international and domestic standards are imposed by governments to ensure the development of quality power supply products. These standards vary from country to country; therefore, to achieve significant sales, power supply manufacturers must adhere to the standards that are specific to a country or a region. These standards are defined and administered by national or international agencies, with various government-recognized testing laboratories.
