However, the properties of traditional silicon-based power supply materials make it difficult to overcome the bottleneck of power density; besides, a lower conversion efficiency results in high power consumption and large heat generation, and further affects device reliability as well as user experience.<\/p>\n<p>Against such a background, the application of third-generation semiconductor material, GaN technology, has brought a revolutionary breakthrough to the field of medical power supplies. On top of high power density, APD\u2019s new GaN medical power supplies feature a more compact footprint and significantly lighter weight, as well as remarkably enhance the user experience of portable medical devices. Also, GaN\u2019s characteristics, such as high efficiency and low power consumption, can greatly reduce the heat generation of power supplies and improve product reliability to ensure the long-term stable operation of medical devices.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_34618\" style=\"width: 702px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-34618\" class=\"wp-image-34618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.apd.com.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IEZR4818.jpg\" alt=\"APD grabbed attention at CMEF 2025\" width=\"692\" height=\"371\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-34618\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">APD grabbed attention at CMEF 2025<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Full range of products meets diverse medical application requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In addition to the new generation GaN medical power supplies, APD also presented a full range of highly reliable medical power supplies in CMEF 2025. All models are compliant with global medical product safety regulations IEC 60601, with many of them also complying with household and consumer electronics grade standards to support applications in various fields.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding protection class, APD\u2019s medical power supplies offer IP22 rating and some can be upgraded to IPX4 or even higher based on customer requirements. The housing, designed with wear-resistant and robust surface treatments, utilizes fire-resistant materials that comply with UL94V0. The compact design is ideally suited for portable medical devices and can be tailored to meet customer requirements, ensuring seamless integration of appearance and quality. Additionally, the ID-integrated LED design not only clearly displays operational status, but also incorporates details like color, brightness, and viewing angles.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_34602\" style=\"width: 651px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-34602\" class=\"wp-image-34602\" src=\"https:\/\/www.apd.com.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DWQI1031.jpg\" alt=\"APD showcases GaN medical power supplies\" width=\"641\" height=\"376\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-34602\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">APD showcases GaN medical power supplies<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Excellent performance ensures stable operation of medical devices<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In terms of product performance, APD\u2019s full range of medical power supplies support outstanding peak current requirements, reaching up to 120%~300%, to more efficiently support the stable operation of medical devices with motors or electric machines. The extremely low noise during full-load operation makes products perfect for an environment where patients need to rest quietly. A service life of more than 10 years further ensures high equipment reliability.<\/p>\n<p>For safety performance, APD\u2019s embedded power supplies are suitable for various harsh environments and compliant with 2x MOPP requirements; the extremely low leakage current can effectively guarantee patient safety. CAE-assisted simulation technology is employed during the design stage to optimize heat dissipation structure to ensure safe and stable operation; electromagnetic compliant design is also introduced to improve anti-interference ability. Meanwhile, products also feature multiple protection functions like overvoltage protection, overcurrent protection, over-temperature protection and short-circuit protection and offer diverse options including automatic self-recovery, adjustable self-recovery and latching protections.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_34671\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-34671\" class=\"wp-image-34671\" src=\"https:\/\/www.apd.com.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/KRKM8002.jpg\" alt=\"Highlight from the APD Booth\" width=\"610\" height=\"345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.apd.com.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/KRKM8002-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.apd.com.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/KRKM8002-705x397.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-34671\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Highlight from the APD Booth<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Wide range of global applications in different markets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Today, APD\u2019s medical power supplies have been widely applied to diverse medical sub-markets such as ventilators, oxygen generators, monitoring instruments, infusion pumps, ultrasonic equipment, beauty equipment and hair removal devices.
