Powering AI at scale Maury Wood appears on an Electronic Specifier podcast explaining the challenges of powering AI and unveiling the trends toward wafer-scale processors. Listen to the podcast. As AI processor demands skyrocket toward 40kW, traditional multiphase TLVR power networks are breaking down from massive thermal losses. Vicor addresses this critical bottleneck with its innovative Factorized Power Architecture™ (FPA™), which minimizes energy waste by running low current at 48V directly to the point-of-load. Their ultra-thin, 1.5mm current multipliers achieve best-in-class current density, enabling efficient vertical power delivery directly beneath the processor. By transforming power delivery from a legacy constraint into an efficiency driver, Vicor provides the scalability needed for future 1MW AI compute racks.
