CorePower Magnetics™ Highlights Existing Alignment with Emerging 800 VDC AI Data Center Architectures

PITTSBURGH, PA | January 14, 2026

CorePower Magnetics™, a leader in high-efficiency magnetic components for medium-frequency and DC power conversion, today announced its alignment with the 800-volt direct-current (800 VDC) data center power architecture outlined in NVIDIA’s recent white paper. The move toward 800 VDC distribution marks a pivotal shift in Artificial Intelligence Data Center (AIDC) infrastructure, where efficiency, thermal performance, and power density are increasingly determined by magnetic components.

As modern power systems transition from multi-stage AC conversion to streamlined DC architectures, magnetics play a central role in enabling reliable rectification, DC-DC conversion, and voltage step-down pathways. 

This architectural shift is being advanced through industry-wide efforts to define open, interoperable power infrastructure, including work within the Open Compute Project ecosystem, where hyperscalers, power equipment providers, and component suppliers are aligning around next-generation DC data center standards. 

Magnetics Built for the 800 VDC Power Architectures

CorePower’s portfolio spans standardized, production-ready products; engineered-to-order solutions; and emerging medium-voltage magnetics designed to support every stage of NVIDIA’s 800 VDC roadmap — from retrofit architectures to SST-aligned systems.  

These architectures require compact, thermally stable, high-efficiency magnetics capable of medium-frequency operation across rectification, DC-DC conversion, and energy storage interfaces. 

Standardized, Production-Ready Products 

CorePower’s production-ready, standardized magnetics are designed to accelerate design cycles and scale production for 800 VDC deployments. 

• CPMLMAX™ 1000-V Class Inductors: LV rectification, high-density DC-DC conversion, and 800 VDC-connected BESS smoothing 

• CPMTMAX™ Transformers (Coming Soon): isolated DC-DC step-down across hybrid and full-DC 800 VDC architectures 

• Emerging MV Standardized Magnetics (In Development): MVDC/MVAC ↔ 800 VDC interfaces for SST-aligned and MVDC architectures 

Engineered-to-Order Magnetics 

For teams designing 800 VDC systems now—including MVDC and SST-aligned architectures—CorePower delivers engineered-to-order inductors and transformers tailored to your voltage class, power density, and integration requirements. This enables near-term programs to move forward while standardized MV offerings and CPMTMAX™ progress toward release. 

• AC-DC rectification: 480 VAC → 800 VDC medium-frequency stages 

• DC-DC conversion: high-density step-down and regulation 

• Energy storage (BESS): 800 VDC and direct MVAC grid-connected interfaces 

• Direct MVAC conversion: SST applications 

A detailed view of our product alignment across retrofit, hybrid, and full-DC architectures is available in CorePower’s 800 VDC Magnetics Roadmap.
