Product Definition:
An AC adapter is a power supply that converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). It is also called a plug pack, plug-in adapter, wall wart, or power brick.
A DC adapter is the same as an AC adapter, but it converts DC to AC.
An AC/DC Adapter will convert between 110 volts and 220 volts so that you can use your electronics in other countries.
AC Adapter:
An adaptor is an electrical device that converts low voltage electricity to high voltage and vice-versa. An adaptor has three main components, plug, cord, and outlet. The most common types of adaptors used in the market are wall outlets with USB ports, travel chargers with USB outlets, car chargers with cigarette lighter sockets and AC inputs (for laptops).
The global Adaptive Fast Charging (AFC) technology was initially launched by Apple Inc.
DC Adapter:
DC adapter is a power supply device that converts the alternating current from an electric outlet to the direct current required by an appliance. The DC adapters come in different shapes and sizes, based on their applications. It can be used for charging small batteries, powering DC motors, providing battery power to portable devices like MP3 players or laptops among others.
Application Insights:
The laptop segment is expected to remain the dominant application over the forecast period. The segment accounted for more than 50% of the global market share in 2017 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing use of laptops across various end-use industries such as education, corporate, medical and general business sectors. Furthermore, growing usage of mobile phones coupled with high demand for smartphones has fueled growth in this segment.
The smartphone segment accounted for a significant market share in 2017 owing to increasing production and sales volumes across various regions including Asia Pacific, North America.
Regional Analysis:
