Podcast with Maury Wood, VP of Strategic Marketing at Vicor
This podcast delves into the cutting-edge solutions that are helping to mitigate the enormous energy demands of generative AI (GenAI).
Powering AI processors – 48V vertical power delivery changes the game
AI models demand huge current, driving legacy multiphase designs past 50 phases—causing space, thermal, and control limits Vicor addresses
Innovative 48V AI power architecture delivers both high current density and high current gain
Vicor 48V Factorized Power Architecture slashes thermal losses and delivers high current density to meet the extreme power demands of AI processors
48V Factorized Power Architecture™ slashes thermal losses and outperforms multiphase approach when powering AI
AI hardware faces severe power and cooling limits. Engineers debate 48V vs. 6V intermediate buses alongside new vertical power delivery (VPD) structures
Powering AI at scale
Maury Wood appears on Electronic Specifier podcast explaining the challenges of powering AI and unveiling the trends toward wafer-scale processors
