Wolfspeed and LITEON Partner to Deliver 800 VDC Silicon Carbide Power Solutions for Hyperscale AI Data Centers

By: IDCNOVARegion: North America
Wolfspeed, Inc. (NYSE: WOLF), a global leader in silicon carbide technology, and LITEON Technology Corporation, a leading provider of AI power solutions, have announced a strategic partnership alongside the successful qualification of Wolfspeed's silicon carbide technology for deployment within LITEON's 800 VDC power sidecar and compute rack PSU platforms. These platforms are engineered to support next-generation AI data centers for leading hyperscale customers, with potential for broader adoption across multiple cloud service provider (CSP) platforms and future deployments.

The collaboration comes as AI-driven growth accelerates the industry's transition to 800 VDC power architectures, with data centers increasingly prioritizing energy efficiency, power density, scalability, and total cost of ownership in critical applications such as power supply units (PSUs) and battery backup units (BBUs). Wolfspeed's family of silicon carbide MOSFETs enables more efficient power delivery across a wide range of operating conditions, helping power system designers maximize efficiency while reducing bill of materials (BOM) costs and simplifying procurement.

LITEON is leveraging Wolfspeed's industry-leading 200mm silicon carbide manufacturing platform to support hyperscale AI infrastructure deployments, a move that underscores both companies' commitment to delivering highly reliable 800 VDC power solutions that can be rapidly deployed at scale while meeting the demanding performance and durability requirements of next-generation AI data centers.

"Our partnership with LITEON demonstrates Wolfspeed's commitment to enabling the rapidly growing AI data center market through advanced silicon carbide technology and a robust, scalable supply chain," said Robert Feurle, Chief Executive Officer of Wolfspeed. "As hyperscale customers accelerate investments in AI infrastructure, Wolfspeed is uniquely positioned to support the industry's transition to higher-efficiency power architectures."

"Integrating Wolfspeed's silicon carbide technology into our 800V VDC power architecture strengthens LITEON's ability to meet the performance, efficiency, and reliability requirements of next-generation AI infrastructure," said John Chang, General Manager, Cloud Infrastructure Platform & Solution SBG, LITEON Technology. "As demand for AI infrastructure continues to accelerate, this collaboration strengthens our ability to support next-generation data center platforms."

The partnership signals a broader industry shift toward higher-voltage power delivery as hyperscale operators seek to reduce energy losses and improve operational efficiency in AI-dense facilities. By combining Wolfspeed's advanced silicon carbide expertise with LITEON's power platform design capabilities, the two companies aim to set a new benchmark for power architecture in the AI data center segment, potentially influencing how future facilities are designed and scaled.
