By integrating both technologies, the HSU reduces the tradeoffs between accuracy, speed, and isolation. "This integration simplifies system architecture, enhances safety, and allows for seamless upgrades without altering the mechanical layout," said Jérémie Piro, product manager for battery management and battery storage systems at LEM.

The AI race is running on massive amounts of electricity. U.S. demand for electricity is projected to climb more than 15% by 2030, with data centers among the primary drivers, according to a recent analysis by power sector consulting firm Grid Strategies. To keep up, tech giants such as Google, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft are all scrambling to secure large amounts of reliable power for their future AI operations, increasingly turning to nuclear power as a way to bypass bottlenecks in the grid.

In normal operation, current flows from the drain to the source when the gate of the power transistor is completely turned off, applying a positive voltage to the drain. This is also called "first quadrant" operation in the parlance of the power electronics industry. However, when the gate of the transistor is completely turned off and the drain voltage becomes negative relative to the source, current flows in the other direction through the body diode, enabling current flow from source to drain.

To differentiate themselves, customers can attach neural processing units (NPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs), or other custom logic to create a full system-on-chip (SoC) that can run everything from intelligent voice interfaces in the cockpit to advanced safety features. By dealing with the more undifferentiated facets of the design, Arm said Zena can reduce the silicon development process by up to one year.

The AI boom is driving up the power demands of CPUs, GPUs, and other high-performance SoCs in data centers-and they show no signs of slowing down. Today, the most advanced AI chips are bordered on virtually all sides by voltage regulators to convey the current over the last inch of the power-delivery network (PDN) into the point-of-load (POL).
