Texas Instruments is known for semiconductors, calculators, and decades of design expertise. In this episode, Chris Suchoski shows how TI is becoming a full grid-to-chip partner for the next wave of data center growth. Rob and Chris break down what it takes to power AI, how architectures are shifting, and why TI’s deep experience outside the four walls of the data center matters now more than ever.Chris outlines the pressure facing the industry. AI workloads are growing at a rate the traditional design cycle cannot match. Time-to-market has gone from years to months, yet the expectations for density, power, sustainability, and reliability continue to climb. TI’s response is to support the entire power path from the grid to the GPU. Their goal is to help customers move faster and build systems that can take on the new wave of compute demand.They discuss the shift from conventional rack design to high-voltage architectures like 800V, the rise of megawatt-class racks, and what happens when unpredictable AI workloads collide with an aging set of power assumptions. Chris explains why this shift impacts every part of the ecosystem, from AC distribution to cooling to storage systems. He also talks through how TI’s decades of work in automotive, industrial, and grid power translate directly into the needs of hyperscale and AI operators.The conversation also highlights how collaboration through OCP speeds progress. Standards development, shared learning, and early visibility into architectural trends help companies build aligned solutions. Chris explains why TI participates heavily in OCP working groups and why he sees it as one of the best ways for operators and engineers to keep up with rapid change.Chapters:00:00 Introduction01:00 Meet Chris Suchoski and TI’s data center focus03:00 Why timelines are shrinking04:00 AI workloads and unpredictable power demand06:00 TI’s role beyond the compute tray08:00 Grid-to-chip: TI’s end-to-end approach10:00 Lessons from automotive and grid power12:00 Why OCP collaboration matters14:00 The shift to 800V architectures17:00 What Gen4 power architectures may look like19:00 Cooling, reliability, and emerging risks21:00 TI’s latest hardware and reference designs24:00 Hidden bottlenecks and future challenges26:00 What operators and engineers should prepare for28:00 How to engage with TI and get involved in OCP
AI clusters are exploding in size and pushing the limits of today’s data center power and network designs. In this episode, host Rob Coyle sits down with JP Buzzell, VP and Data Center Chief Architect at Eaton, to break down why power architecture has become the next big bottleneck and how the industry can respond.JP explains how data center design has hit a turning point. Density jumped from a few kilowatts a rack to more than 100 kW almost overnight. The move from many small, varied workloads to massive, synchronized GPU clusters has changed everything from physical layouts to network physics. Packet loss now dictates rack layout. Space inside the rack has run out. Cooling had to evolve not just for efficiency, but simply to fit the gear. And power distribution needs a complete rethink.The conversation covers the shift toward direct current power, why AC inside the rack cannot scale to the clusters coming next, and the role OCP is playing in driving standards, regulation, and cross-industry cooperation. JP also shares the human motivation behind this work, from medical breakthroughs to a cleaner, safer grid.This is a clear and practical explanation of a topic that will shape the future of data centers for years to come.00:00 – Why data center design is changing02:15 – The jump in rack density04:20 – Liquid cooling’s real driver06:50 – Power congestion inside the rack08:30 – JP Buzzell’s background10:45 – Building hyperscale GPU clusters14:40 – The power bottleneck hits18:00 – Training vs inference reliability20:40 – We’re still in the “light bulb era” of AI22:10 – What slows DC adoption25:00 – Inside the OCP power distribution effort29:30 – Grid stability and load drops34:00 – Modular power and offsite build38:45 – The next wave of power tech41:00 – Global standards and interoperability51:55 – Final message: feed the good wolf
