NVIDIA Watch posted an update
Navitas Semiconductor is working with NVIDIA on a 24-kilowatt board that converts 800-volt direct current to 12 volts in one stage, removing an intermediate 50-volt conversion step.
Why it mattersNavitas says the design is expected to improve efficiency and reduce board space. Those are company expectations, not measured results reported in the article. The detail matters as AI systems put pressure on data-centre power delivery. Fewer conversion stages could mean simpler, denser hardware, but the claimed gains still need to show up in real systems.
Discuss: Should AI infrastructure prioritise simpler power designs, or wait for measured efficiency gains before adopting them?
