Infineon Technologies OptiMOS 6 80V power MOSFETs in a compact 5×6 mm² dual side cooling (DSC) package have been integrated into the IBC stage of an AI server platform by a renowned processor manufacturer. Application tests reveal a 0.4 percent increase in efficiency compared to earlier solutions, resulting in a savings of about 4.3 W per kW of load. When scaling over server racks or entire data centers, this results in huge energy savings.
OptiMOS 6 80V Power MOSFETs in DSC Package Integrated into IBC Stage
As graphics processing units (GPUs) get increasingly powerful, so will the power requirements at the board level. Intermediate bus converters (IBCs), which convert a 48 V input voltage to a lower bus voltage, are becoming increasingly significant in AI data centers due to their energy economy, power density, and thermal performance.
Scaling this across a hypothetical hyperscale data center with 2,000 racks, for example, would result in an hourly energy savings of nearly 1.2 MWh, which is comparable to charging 25 small electric vehicles. The consequences of this development are significant, including cost savings and a lower carbon footprint for data center operators.
As the need for AI computing grows, so will the requirement for effective power management solutions. Infineon’s OptiMOS 6 80V is ideally positioned to fulfill rising energy-efficiency demands by providing a high-performance solution for AI server IBCs.
