Ultra compact GAN ATX power supply delivers up to 250 Watts
I was going to criticize &amp; point out how usb-c chargers at and over 100W are just so small, but there&#x27;s a photo comparing it to an iphone &amp; ok, it looks adequately impressively dense! (I have a &gt;2 year old 100W charger that is 66x64x30mm, this 250W unit is 170x50x25)<p>It&#x27;s been such a great synergy. Energy efficiency has been a concern already yes, but I really view usb-c chargers as pushing the consumerization &amp; massification &amp; development of this technology to the superb, common, un-exotic levels it&#x27;s come down to. We just got tired of doing less good, actively explored trying to use a somewhat harder to drive switching semiconductor, &amp; have reaped great rewards. Miniaturization mandated optimization &amp; we all win. I really think the interchangable-parts&#x2F;modularity &amp; resulting competition that usb-c begot started this ball rolling.<p>(Hoping USB-PD, with it&#x27;s bump from 20 up to 48V, once again proves another huge win!)
