About FPGA power supplies for AI and inference applications

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are being used increasingly in AI and inference applications in place of standard CPU. They are pivotal in AI and inference applications for their flexibility and efficient workload acceleration. Infineon provides solutions for AI applications demanding high power operation with best-in-class digital multiphase power controllers. In inference applications, Infineon offers essential low-power solutions with a broad integrated point-of-load (PoL) voltage regulators portfolio.

Today's FPGAs demand efficient power solutions due to higher integration, smaller form-factors and increased complexity. AI applications demand for high-power solutions, while inference applications typically run on low-power. Infineon covers both and offers compact and high-performance DC-DC power-supply solutions. Our portfolio includes integrated point-of-load (PoL) voltage regulators, OptiMOS™ Integrated Smart Power Stages, and digital multiphase controllers, ensuring system robustness, power density and efficiency in FPGA power-supply design.

AI and inference application may contain processing of confidential and personal data which must be protected. Software-based and non-hardened security mechanisms are relatively easy to attack and manipulate. A strong security solution relies on certified hardened security hardware. Infineon's trusted computing hardware, based on decades of experience, offers a wide array of top-of-the-line OPTIGA™ TPM and SEMPER™ Secure NOR Flash solutions, delivering robust security and protection for FPGA power supplies.
