Switch-mode power supply (SMPS) transformers are a specific type of transformer employed in various devices, notably in computers. These transformers are commonly utilized in commercial and industrial settings to power electronic equipment like medical devices, communication devices, and commercial power supplies. Their primary function lies in regulated power supply, where they play a crucial role in stepping up or down voltage or current and providing isolation between the input and output sides.
There are several types of switch-mode power supply transformers, including AC to DC, DC to AC, DC to AC, and AC to DC. The AC to DC variant, for instance, is designed to convert alternating current (AC) main power into direct current (DC) output voltage with high efficiency. Upon powering up, the AC main power undergoes filtration through a capacitor, transforming it from AC voltage to unregulated DC voltage using rectifiers. The switch-mode transformer then converts this unregulated DC voltage into a regulated DC output voltage at various levels using a regulator. These transformers are crucial in different voltage categories, such as distribution voltage, sub-transmission voltage, high voltage transmission, extra high voltage transmission, and ultra-high voltage transmission. They cater to diverse end-users, including consumer electronics, communications, industrial applications, and more.

The switch mode power supply transformers market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $1.91 billion in 2024 to $1.98 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to electronics industry growth, cost reduction, customization and specialization, supply chain resilience, global expansion of electronics manufacturing.
The switch mode power supply transformers market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.42 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to renewable energy expansion, electric vehicle market growth, iot and 5g adoption, digitalization and cloud computing, electric grid modernization. Major trends in the forecast period include advanced magnetic core materials, multi-output transformers, high-frequency transformer designs, wide bandgap semiconductors, iot and 5g adoption.
The increasing demand for consumer electronics is anticipated to significantly boost the growth of the switch mode power supply (SMPS) transformers market during the forecast period. This surge in demand is primarily attributed to the superior performance of SMPS compared to linear regulators, as the switching transistor operates more efficiently by consuming less power. Nearly all electronic devices are equipped with switched-mode power supplies. For instance, in December 2023, Demandsage, a US-based automated reporting platform utilizing data science, reported that there were around 6.6 billion smartphone users worldwide as of 2022, marking a 4.2% increase from the previous year. Consequently, the rising demand for consumer electronics is driving the growth of the switch mode power supply transformer market.
The growth in renewable energy sources and applications is expected to further propel the switch mode power supply market. Renewable energy, characterized by its sustainability and minimal environmental impact, is harnessed from naturally replenishable sources. Switch mode power supply transformers play a crucial role in efficiently converting and managing electrical energy in renewable energy systems, facilitating the transformation of variable and intermittent sources like solar and wind power into stable and usable electrical power. According to a report by the International Energy Agency in March 2023, renewable energy sources, including solar and wind power, are projected to meet over 90% of the global increase in energy demand by 2025. This trend is set to drive the demand for switch mode power supply transformers.
Leading companies in the switch mode power supply transformers market are developing innovative products, such as space-grade planar transformers, to meet stringent requirements by delivering high efficiency, reduced size, and enhanced thermal management. For instance, in May 2024, Vishay Intertechnology Inc., a US-based semiconductor manufacturing company, launched a new series of low-profile, space-grade planar transformers designed for power conversion applications. These transformers are suitable for use in switch mode power supplies, DC/DC converters, and AC/DC converters. Part of the SGTPL-2516 series, these transformers stand out for their lower cost, compact size, and higher density compared to traditional planar transformers.
Major players in the market are innovating with new technological products, such as the current sense transformer (CST), to enhance profitability. CSTs are used for measuring current in a conductor while providing isolation. Wurth Elektronik launched a Current Sense Transformer in May 2023, specifically designed for switch mode power supply (SMPS) applications, ideal for various applications including AC current detection, load measurement, and high-frequency current sensing.
In April 2024, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, a Japan-based provider of switch-mode power supply (SMPS) transformers, partnered with Hitachi Ltd. Under this partnership, Mitsubishi Electric will transfer its distribution transformer business to Hitachi Industrial Equipment Systems, thereby strengthening Japan's power distribution network. Hitachi Ltd., a multinational conglomerate based in Japan, will leverage this collaboration to enhance its capabilities in the power distribution sector.
