- 解決AI領域關鍵挑戰：在功耗與散熱需求制約系統擴容的現狀下實現高密度、高能效算力輸出
- 進一步鞏固ADI作為領先的系統級電網至核心晶片全鏈路電源配置策略合作夥伴地位，服務超大規模雲端服務商與AI晶片開發商
- 憑藉整合電壓調節器(IVR)與矽電容技術方案，拓展ADI在AI算力供電領域的整體市場規模
台北2026年5月21日 /美通社/ — Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADI)與Empower Semiconductor宣佈，雙方已達成最終協議，ADI將以15億美元全現金交易收購Empower。
隨著AI算力規模持續擴張，功率密度(不僅是總功耗)已成為制約系統規模擴展的關鍵因素。在算力端實現高密度、高能效供電，並能夠快速回應不斷變化的算力負載需求，現已成為系統設計中最核心的挑戰之一。
ADI與Empower將攜手推動AI及各類算力密集型應用的供電架構發展。透過將電源轉換環節部署到更靠近處理器的位置，整合後的解決方案可縮短供電鏈路、提升效率，助力打造性能更強、密度更高的系統設計。憑藉在高性能電源管理領域的領先優勢，ADI持續投入系統級平台，從電網到核心晶片全鏈路，推動性能、密度與能效實現跨越式反覆運算升級。
高層評論
- ADI執行長暨董事會主席Vincent Roche表示：「AI基礎設施正從根本上重塑供電模式，能源已然成為制約新一代算力系統規模化發展的主要瓶頸。ADI已推出多款高性能電源管理解決方案，本次收購Empower，將進一步擴展我們的產品組合，協助客戶重構供電系統架構，滿足新一代AI對算力密度的嚴苛需求。這項技術的影響遠不止於AI資料中心，所有受能源條件限制的領域都將因此受益。」
- Empower Semiconductor執行長Tim Phillips表示：「Empower自成立以來，始終致力於攻克AI供電領域最棘手的難題，破除制約AI算力吞吐能力的供電瓶頸。我們的技術可達成AI處理器所需的功率密度、回應速度與能效，助力其充分釋放性能潛力，實現多代際性能躍升。憑藉ADI的電源管理平台、規模優勢與優異的營運能力，輔以本次合併帶來的系統級協同效益，將進一步加速我們的客戶應用。」
Empower的矽電容產品已實現量產，IVR相關專案也正與領先的超大規模雲端服務商、AI晶片供應商緊密合作推進。ADI將憑藉自身規模優勢、製造能力及客戶覆蓋範圍，加速推動相關技術落地。
交易詳情
收購協議已獲雙方董事會批准。根據協定條款，ADI將向Empower股東支付15億美元全現金收購價款。該交易預計將於2026年下半年完成，具體取決於慣常的交割條件，以及修訂版《1976年哈特-斯科特-羅迪諾反壟斷改進法案》(Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976)規定的適用等待期（及其任何延期期限）屆滿。交易完成後，Phillips先生將成為ADI的一員並繼續領導推進IVR技術相關工作。
