The rapid expansion of artificial intelligence infrastructure is driving unprecedented increases in data center power density, efficiency requirements, and system complexity. Rack power levels exceeding 100 kW and the transition toward higher DC bus voltages are accelerating the adoption of multi-level topologies, wide-bandgap devices, and higher switching frequencies in modern power conversion systems.
This presentation examines the critical role of power components in enabling high-density PFC and inverter architectures used in AI-driven data centers through application-based development work.
