FPGA in Datacenter Applications
FPGAs in data center applications
Leveraging highly configurable logic cell arrays, FPGAs provide superior efficiency and optimization, outperforming CPUs and GPUs in data-center applications such as CPU and acceleration offload, network-traffic management, and storage allocation. FPGAs have a significant number of power rails and also use memory and secure boot functions, all of which Infineon can fulfill from its portfolio and further optimize to customer-specific use-cases.
Benefits:
- Scalable core voltage
- Industry-leading efficiency rates
- High integration
- Compact design for multiple rails
The rapid surge in AI adoption and digitalization presents significant challenges in power suply design in data center applications. It underscores the need for green and efficient computing solutions, critcal to reduction of overall power consumption within data centers, where vast data volumes are constantly transmitted, stored, and processed. In such a landscape, FPGAs are assuming a more prominet role within data-center applications due to their flexibility, energy efficiency, low latency, and customization capabilities. Explore our portfolio of high-efficiency power solutions: low-voltage voltage regulator (VR) designs, integrated smart power stages and digital multiphase controllers, powering the high-performance FPGAs deployed in customer data centers today. Discover reliable, embedded, system-level security solutions and ensure protected end-to-end data communications, as well as our differentiated portfolio of volatile and non-volatile memory devices.
Today's FPGAs demand efficient power solutions due to higher integration, smaller form-factors and increased complexity. Infineon covers both and offers compact and high-performance DC-DC power-supply solutions. Our portfolio of integrated point-of-load (PoL) voltage regulators, OptiMOS™ Integrated Smart Power Stages, and digital multiphase controllers delivers system robustness, power density and efficiency in FPGA design in data center applications, where overall reduction of power consumption is critical to sustainable operation.
