To C market industry's smallest 65W AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount mass production success story.
"E-Power Solutions' DAC (Dual Active Clamp) Technology," bringing new innovation to the power supply industry. UNIFIVE has successfully delivered this groundbreaking circuit technology to the market as high-quality mass-produced Products. Since our founding in 1989, we have specialized in the development and manufacturing of compact power supplies. Here, we introduce a case study in which our technical expertise transformed an innovative idea into a reliable, tangible solution.

Products Overview: The Remarkable Miniaturization Achieved by ADAMON 65W Gen2
Proprietary Technology Achieving One of the Smallest Sizes in the World
ADAMON 65W Gen2 has achieved an astonishingly compact and lightweight design with a volume of just 46cc and a weight of 65g. This was made possible for the first time by combining E-Power Solutions' Dual Active Clamp Technology (DAC Technology) with UNIFIVE's many years of power supply manufacturing expertise.
Volume Reduction 42% reduction compared to conventional models | Weight Reduction 40% reduction compared to conventional models | Power Efficiency 94% high-efficiency operation |

Technical Features and Solutions for Mass Production Challenges
The core of DAC Technology lies in the combination of a voltage clamp circuit that limits the input voltage to 250V or less and a highly efficient active clamp DC-DC converter. This innovative circuit configuration makes it possible to replace the conventionally required large 400V-class electrolytic capacitors with compact components rated at 250V or less.
UNIFIVE addressed the following technical challenges in designing this groundbreaking circuit technology into a mass-producible Products:
- Optimization of PCB design for high-speed switching circuits
- Comprehensive noise countermeasures to comply with EMI standards (CISPR 32 Class B)
- Efficient thermal design within a compact enclosure
- Compliance with stringent safety standards (PSE/IEC 62368-1)
As an example of a Products leveraging this technological advantage, a commercial model under the ADAMON brand by E-Power Solutions is also available (ADAMON 65W Gen2 One of the World's Smallest USB-C Charger (Amazon Product Page)).
Innovative Differences Between GaN AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount and DAC Technology
A Different Approach from Conventional GaN Methods
GaN (gallium nitride)-based AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount, which currently dominate the market, achieve miniaturization through the approach of "enhancing high-voltage MOSFET performance using GaN." In contrast, the ADAMON 65W Gen2 achieves equivalent or greater miniaturization through an innovative circuit design that enhances MOSFET performance by lowering voltage resistance, while utilizing existing highly reliable Si devices.
Comparison of Technical Approaches
| Item | Conventional General GaN Adapter | ADAMON 65W (DAC Technology) |
|---|---|---|
| Device Used | 600-650V GaN HEMT | 250V High-Performance Si MOSFET |
| Miniaturization Method | Miniaturization through high-frequency operation | Component miniaturization through input voltage clamping |
| EMI Countermeasures | Measures through high-speed switching | Low EMI through ZVS (Zero Voltage Switching) |
| Control Circuit | Difficult gate drive circuit design | Stable operation possible with existing control ICs |
Performance Advantages Achieved by DAC Technology
By adopting DAC technology, the following advantages are achieved:
- Power Efficiency: Achieves high efficiency of 94% (equivalent to or better than GaN-based products)
- Size: Industry-leading compact size of 46cc (smaller than GaN-based products)
- EMI Performance: Secures a -6dB margin against the CISPR 32 standard
- Reliability: High reliability through proven Si devices
