Microchip Technology has launched the MCPF1525 Power Module, designed to meet the demands of AI and high-performance computing workloads. This highly integrated device features a 16V input buck converter that delivers 25A per module and can be stacked to provide up to 200A.

The module’s vertical construction allows for a 40% reduction in board area compared to other solutions, measuring 6.8 mm x 7.65 mm x 3.82 mm, making it suitable for space-constrained AI servers. The MCPF1525 includes programmable PMBus and I2C controls and provides critical diagnostics for over-temperature, over-current, and over-voltage protection. Priced at $12.00 for 1,000-unit quantities, the module supports the latest PCIe switches and is engineered for reliability and efficiency in high-performance data center applications.
