Server

An edge server and  PLC controller for industrial automation, field comms and IoT edge applications by Sfera Labs are based on Raspberry Pi 4 and 5. The Strato Pi Plus edge server uses a Raspberry Pi RP2354 microcontroller to handle critical, real-time functions and system supervision, independently of the main processor. There is also an independent hardware watchdog designed to ...

Server shipments are projected to grow 12.8% YoY in 2026, while AI server shipments are expected to grow by more than 28% YoY, says TrendForce. Google and Microsoft are set to ramp up procurement of general-purpose servers to meet rising inference workloads ASIC-based AI servers are projected to account for nearly 28% of shipments, reaching a multi-year peak The rapid ...

Toshiba has launched a 47mΩ 600V n-channel super-junction mosfet in an 8 x 8mm DFN package. With sufficient heatsinking, the device, TK057V60Z, can carry 40A continuously and pulses up to 160A. 47mΩ is the typical on-resistance while passing 15A with a 10V gate drive – maximum resistance under these conditions is 57mΩ. For more effective gate driving, the package includes ...

Rohm has designed a mosfet for high-current 48V hotswap controllers in data centres. RY7P250BM is a 100V device nominally rated at 300A and comes in an 8 x 8mm DFN8080 package. “In hot-swap circuits used to safely replace modules while servers remain powered on, mosfets are required that offer both wide safe operating area and low on-resistance to protect against ...

The Q1 server market reached a record $95.2 billion, says IDC, up 134.1% y-o-y. The market forecast  for the year is $366 billion dollars for 2025 up 44.6% y-o-y. The x86 server market value is projected to increase 39.9% in 2025 to $283.9 billion while non-x86 servers will increase 63.7% y-o-y to $82.0 billion. Servers with an embedded GPU are ...

The Q1 server and storage component market grew 62% y-o-y, says Dell’Oro with   surging demand for accelerators, HBM, and NICs underpinning record expansion across the AI infrastructure stack. “The AI accelerator market was led by robust uptake of NVIDIA’s Blackwell GPU platform as well as the continued rollout of custom accelerators by major cloud service providers,” says Dell’Oro’s  Baron ...

Q.Ant will demonstrate of native analogue photonic processing at ISC 2025, the high-performance computing conference. “For the first time, attendees will be able to interact directly with functional photonic computing, witnessing how light can drive energy and computational efficiency for AI, physics simulations, and other complex scientific workloads”. according to the company. “Q.Ant is attacking two of the biggest challenges ...

Rohm has created three n-channel power mosfets in 5 x 6mm DFN packaging. RS7E200BG is a 30V mosfet optimised for both secondary-side ac-dc conversion and hot-swap controllers in 12V enterprise server power supplies. RS7N200BH is an 80V mosfet optimised for secondary ac-dc conversion in 48V server power supplies, as is RS7N160BH. “The DFN5060-8S package increases the internal die size area ...

Softbank has bought Ampere the Santa Clara Arm-based server chip designer for $6.5 billion. Ampere’s technology derives from the Arm-based server processors of Applied Micro Circuit Corp (AMCC) which was taken over by MACOM in 2016. In October 2017, MACOM sold the computing business of AMCC, including the IP for AMCC’s X-Gene Arm-based processors, to the private equity fund Carlyle ...

MSI will unveil its latest AMD EPYC 9005 series CPU-based server boards and platforms at SuperComputing today. “As AI continues to reshape the landscape of data centre infrastructure, MSI’s servers, powered by EPYC 9005 Series processors [are] ideal for modern data centres,” said MSI general manager Danny Hsu. “Our servers optimise thermal management and performance for virtualised and containerised environments.” ...
