San jose: Taiwan-based manufacturing giant Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., widely recognized as Foxconn, announced a partnership with U.S. artificial intelligence chip designer Nvidia Corp. to advance AI factory infrastructure. This announcement was made during the ongoing OCP Global Summit 2025 in San Jose, California.
According to Focus Taiwan, Hon Hai plans to incorporate Nvidia's 800 VDC data center power architecture into its K-1 AI data center project in Kaohsiung. This installation marks Hon Hai's commitment to enhancing AI servers, data centers, and renewable energy integration.
Hon Hai highlighted that the 800 VDC power architecture is specifically designed for high-density AI workloads. It features a modular and scalable setup that significantly reduces current and resistive losses, minimizes conductor use, simplifies power distribution, and improves energy conversion efficiency and system safety. The architecture will support next-generation Nvidia graphics processing units (GPUs), establishing a foundation for efficient AI servers and data centers with enhanced power resilience to accommodate increasing computing demands.
In addition to adopting this new architecture, Hon Hai plans to continue advancing its design capabilities in AI servers, power, and cooling systems. This will enable the company to provide rapid solutions for AI data centers. Hon Hai stated, "Through continuous innovation in high-efficiency power and thermal design, Foxconn reinforces its leadership and highlights Taiwan's pivotal role in the global AI supply chain."
At the OCP Global Summit, Hon Hai's cloud solutions subsidiary, Ingrasys Technology Inc., presented several next-generation AI platforms. These included the Nvidia GB300 NVL72, Nvidia HGX B300, and Nvidia MGX servers, all intended for enterprise-grade AI applications. Hon Hai asserted that these Ingrasys innovations demonstrate its strong capabilities in AI infrastructure development and system integration.
