Achieve a special output specification AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount with zero initial cost and short delivery time! A case study of implementation by an electronics manufacturer meeting mass production schedules with semi-custom support

AC adapters with output specifications not available on the market can also be accommodated by UNIFIVE through the use of existing lineup plus semi-customization. No need to reacquire PSE = zero initial cost. Here, we introduce a case study that meets mass production schedules with short lead times and low MOQs.

Do you have concerns like “Special output specifications require high development and PSE certification costs…”?

When a custom output specification AC adapter not found on the market is needed, many companies tend to think that “we have no choice but to go full custom development.”

This time, we introduce a case where a situation requiring special voltage and current specifications and concerns over “high initial cost…” was resolved by utilizing our existing lineup and semi-custom support.

Challenges Before Implementation

Due to special output specifications (voltage and current), there are no compatible products on the market
Concerns over high initial cost (development and PSE certification)
Want to keep the MOQ (minimum order quantity) low
Need to meet the mass production schedule

Our Solution

Step	Measure	Effect
1	Select a similar output specification from our rich standard lineup	Available to use existing PSE certification
2	Adjust output using semi-customization	Specification change at zero initial cost
3	Confirm safety standard compliance by model classification	No additional PSE certification costs required

[Point] If it’s a simple semi-custom, we can meet the same MOQ and lead time as standard products!

Results After Implementation

Realized short delivery time for sample submission and completed evaluation smoothly
Achieved cost reduction with zero initial cost
Succeeded in productization in time for mass production schedule

Customer Feedback

“We had given up because of the special specifications, but we never imagined it could be realized this quickly!”
