The immediate future of power management
will continue to be driven by electrification in
many segments, including consumer electronics,
industrial, and automotive, but AI acceleration in
the data center is driving many emerging power
management design challenges.
The density of AI data centers means that power
management must accommodate smaller spaces,
which raises new challenges around heat dissipation
as devices get stacked closer and closer together—
elements such as capacitance, magnetics, and
transient response efficiency must
still be accommodated.
THE FUTURE
OF POWER
MANAGEMENT
As power systems become more
complex and interconnected,
high-speed communication
is essential for real-time
monitoring, optimizing power
consumption, and integrating
with intelligent systems."
