Infineon Technologies, a global leader in power systems and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, has become part of NVIDIA’s MGX AI Factory ecosystem, contributing advanced power delivery technologies for the next generation of AI data centers. The company’s power management portfolio will support NVIDIA’s MGX™ platform and 800 VDC power architecture—an open and modular framework developed to meet the demands of AI factories in the era of agentic AI. By enabling 800 VDC MGX™-compatible power racks, Infineon helps existing AI infrastructure achieve greater computing capacity and power density while providing a pathway for future upgrades.
Adam White, President of Infineon’s Power & Sensor Systems Division, stated that the collaboration with NVIDIA aims to reshape power distribution from the electrical grid all the way to the processor level, a critical requirement for advancing AI technologies. He noted that as AI models become increasingly sophisticated and resource-intensive, data centers must significantly boost computational performance while operating within existing space, energy, and cooling limitations. Through the combination of NVIDIA’s flexible MGX architecture and Infineon’s power solutions, data centers can achieve more efficient energy distribution across their power networks. He also expressed enthusiasm about continuing joint efforts to bring additional MGX-based innovations to market.
Infineon’s expertise in end-to-end power conversion spans the entire power chain, from grid infrastructure to processor cores, utilizing a range of semiconductor technologies including silicon (Si), silicon carbide (SiC), and gallium nitride (GaN). This broad technological foundation supports the industry's move toward large-scale adoption of 800 VDC architectures. Infineon’s GaN-based solutions, operating at switching frequencies approaching 1 MHz, enable highly compact bus converters with exceptional efficiency. Additionally, the company’s proprietary SiC JFET technology, paired with specialized control integrated circuits, provides effective protection and hot-swap capabilities for native 800 V server boards. These solutions facilitate power conversion from 800 V to intermediate voltages such as 50 V, 12 V, and even 6 V.
Within the NVIDIA MGX AI Factory ecosystem, Infineon supports the full 800 VDC power conversion pathway, delivering intermediate bus and core voltages for systems built on NVIDIA MGX architecture. By minimizing the number of power conversion stages and bringing DC power closer to server racks, the approach enhances overall energy efficiency, streamlines infrastructure requirements, and enables higher-density AI computing environments.
