Development Trends of Multi-Phase Power Supply Solutions in Data Centers

With the rapid expansion of generative AI and large model industries, the computing power density in data centers continues to rise. In the early years, a single GPU in a data center consumed only a few hundred watts. Today, mainstream AI accelerator cards have surged to the 2000+W level, and the single-chip power consumption of next-generation flagship XPUs will keep breaking through upward.

Behind the surge in power consumption lies a test for the entire power supply system: the current required by the chip exceeds the kiloampere level, with Slew Rate continuously accelerating; the dynamic current Istep amplitude keeps increasing, requiring lower output voltage drop ∆Vo; the Lout inductor value becomes smaller, and the bus voltage also needs to be reduced accordingly. The core input voltage of GPUs/XPUs is generally below 0.7V. The shortcomings of traditional power supply architectures, such as line loss and insufficient transient response under high current and high dynamic loads, are becoming increasingly prominent.

As a core domestic manufacturer of high-power, low-voltage, high-current power management chips, IVS will showcase its full-scenario data center power supply solutions at the 2026 Open Computing Technology Conference.

This conference will kick off on July 9 at the Beijing International Hotel. IVS will deliver a keynote titled "Development Trends of Multi-Phase Power Supply Solutions in Data Centers," and together with many top industry experts, will explore new power supply solutions under the explosion of AI computing power, centered around the conference theme "Intelligent Computing Without Boundaries | Open, Diverse, Scalable."

Facing the common power supply challenges across the industry, IVS's approach is a "dual-track layout": optimizing existing mature solutions while strategically deploying for next-generation architectures:

◆ On the 12V horizontal power supply main track, IVS continues to refine high-phase-count multi-phase controllers and power stage solutions, helping customers maximize the power supply potential under the existing 12V architecture to support stable operation of higher-power computing cards.

◆ For the future of higher-density computing, IVS has simultaneously laid out a 5V vertical power supply technology roadmap, reserving ample technical headroom for next-generation computing platforms with single-card 2000W+ and single-cabinet hundreds of kilowatts.

What process and architecture optimizations have been made to the 12V and 5V SPS solutions? How do they support stable operation of higher-power computing cards? Can the 5V vertical power supply technology route achieve higher power density and conversion efficiency?

We sincerely invite industry customers, partners, and technology developers to visit our booth to exchange ideas on power supply technology innovation and jointly strengthen the underlying foundation of computing infrastructure.

On July 9, at the Beijing International Hotel, the 2026 Open Computing Technology Conference — see you there.
