The Challenge
Due to rigorous demands of their target market, Wilson Electronics were looking to find an AC/DC power supply adapter that met extremely specific stringent and unique (with specifications like 1.6% noise and ripple, 70C de-rated operation, custom connector molding, AM and FM non-jamming performance) while meeting a low-cost price point to enable their product to be cozzmpetitive in the consumer market.

We were able to provide their non-standard 4.2VDC level without the need for resubmission to expensive safety approvals.

What We Did
The target price point meant that a custom power supply solution was not an option yet there were customised requirements in the specification including a custom molded output connector, unique locking barrel connector, specific wire cordage type and lengths, stringent output noise spec of 1.6% max of noise and ripple, non-standard 4.2V voltage without the need to obtain additional safety approvals.

Following a deep review of the requirements and the end product performance, our engineering team got to work on a solution based on a modified-standard approach.

We were able to deliver on every required specification while keeping the overall cost of the power supply within the expectations of the customer due to our established experience in global material sourcing and strong relationships with our suppliers.

In our partnership approach, we are now on to our sixth project / programme with Wilson Electronics in 3 years, continuously solving challenges and special requests.

How Have We Helped Wilson Electronics?
Through solving challenging design requirements without adding significant cost to the power supply and providing access to our technical expertise we have empowered the customer to deliver high performing products while maintaining their market leading position in the competitive Cell Phone Signal Boost technology space.

“TT Electronics has quickly become our go-to partner for AC/DC power supply solutions. More than just a supplier, TT provides invaluable technical support with line-by-line review of our extensive product specifications and guiding us on the latest regulatory requirements. The TT lab in Hudson was able to respond quickly and provide in-house testing to resolve a RF interference issue for us, removing a challenge in our product design process.

From a commercial standpoint, we have worked with TT’s team to select the most cost-effective power supplies for our application which enables us to remain competitive in our market. I highly recommend them as a power supply sourcing partner.”
