From Grid to GPU: Enabling Multi-Megawatt SST Architectures With High-Current SiC Power Modules

From Grid to GPU: Enabling Multi-Megawatt SST Architectures With High-Current SiC Power Modules

AI-driven data centers require power supplies with high efficiency, power density, and reliability. Solid-State Transformer (SST) architectures based on SiC power modules enable direct conversion from 34.5 kV medium-voltage grids to 800 V and future 1500 V data center DC infrastructures. This article highlights how high-power SSTs and high-current, highly reliable SiC modules can support multi-megawatt hyperscaler applications while improving efficiency and the key AI performance metric: “Tokens per Second per Megawatt.”
