How to fit high-power, multi-rail requirements into nontraditional small-spaced footprints. Learn to break down rails into smaller, paralleled increments.
Maintenance Notice
In an effort to improve the Vicor website, we will be conducting maintenance on the site Wednesday Oct. 7th between 5am and 9am EDT. Certain parts of the site may not be available during this time, specifically our web tools. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
Watch the demonstration of Gyoukou, the ExaScaler/PEZY ZettaScaler-2.2 liquid immersion cooling supercomputer with a November 2017 Top500 ranking of #5 reported at 19.1PFlop/s and a Green500 ranking of #4 reported at 14.1GFlops/Watt. Each tank within the system is comprised of 256 processors and utilizes 48V Factorized Power, a high-efficiency, high-density power distribution architecture. PEZY CPUs are co-packaged with Vicor Power-on-Package (PoP) Modular Current Multipliers (“MCMs”) which enable efficient, direct 48V to sub-1V current multiplication at the XPU. The Gyoukou supercomputer is installed at the JAMSTEC Yokohama Research Institute in Japan.

Meeting transient needs
Mitigate I²R losses and trace inductance by shifting from lateral layout paths to vertical power placement using advanced multi-phase modules and current multipliers.
Powering high current loads
Explore solutions for delivering thousands of amps to demanding loads. Evaluate traditional constraints like connector pin scaling and cable sizing.
Regulating 48 volts
Learn to deploy non-isolated buck-boost regulators for wide-swing 36V – 60V inputs and implement efficient power regulation using an isolated converter.
