NEW TECH:

Jensen Huang responded positively when the ‘Taipei Times’ asked him if 800V architecture would be the next-generation power standard for AI data centers

Delta Electronics Inc (台達電) plans to begin small-volume shipments of its 800V high-voltage direct current (HVDC) architecture to Nvidia Corp next quarter, with the product currently in the verification stage, Delta vice president of the power and system business group Ares Chen (陳盈源) said yesterday. The 800V HVDC architecture is expected to be deployed first in Nvidia’s data centers before being introduced to other customers later, Chen said on the sidelines of the Computex Taipei trade show. The company is ready to mass-produce the 800V HVDC products, but the timing of deployment would depend largely on the rollout schedules of the latest artificial intelligence (AI) platforms, Chen said.
