New piezoelectric chip hits 96.2% efficiency, 4x current to cut data center losses
SMRTR summary
UC San Diego engineers developed a new piezoelectric chip that converts data center power from 48 volts to lower levels with 96.2% efficiency and four times more current output than previous designs. This breakthrough could significantly reduce energy losses in data centers by replacing traditional magnetic inductors with vibrating piezoelectric resonators combined with capacitors.
