EDITORIAL FOCUS
KLC's TTV 2.0 enables controlled thermal testing for next-generation GPUs and AI accelerators through configurable heating zones, temperature measurements and cold-plate validation. This technical feature examines how multi-zone heat simulation supports advanced semiconductor cooling development, including single-phase and two-phase liquid cooling applications.
LATEST INSIGHTS
Supermicro has introduced a fully liquid-cooled NVIDIA Vera CPU rack featuring 256 processors, 22,528 CPU cores and support for up to 22,500 concurrent AI agent sandboxes. Designed to complement NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, the new rack combines DLC-2 cooling, BlueField-4 DPUs, optional 800V DC power delivery and a common MGX infrastructure architecture, highlighting the growing importance of dedicated CPU capacity in next-generation AI factories.
A technical seminar in Sejong, South Korea, brought together regional research organizations, AI data center developers and ZutaCore to examine how next-generation two-phase liquid cooling could reduce water consumption while delivering more usable AI computing capacity within existing power limits.
Sydney Tech Expo 2027 will bring together Australia's AI, cloud and data centre industries at ICC Sydney on 9–10 November 2027. With more than 200 exhibitors and 500 speakers planned, the event will spotlight AI infrastructure, power, cooling and digital transformation. View Official Event Brochure (PDF) →
Mitsubishi Electric's Climaveneta is positioning its high-efficiency cooling systems for South Korea's expanding AI data center market, while the industry moves from conventional chillers toward direct-to-chip liquid cooling and next-generation two-phase technologies. LG Electronics, Samsung Electronics and Shinsung E&G are also advancing high-density cooling solutions, with the 2028–2030 period emerging as a potential commercialization window for wider two-phase adoption. As AI rack densities rise, reducing cooling energy and water consumption is becoming a strategic priority across the industry.
As AI data centers demand increasingly large and reliable power supplies, small modular reactors (SMRs) are emerging as a potential long-term energy solution. South Korea's Doosan Enerbility is pursuing a distinctive strategy: rather than developing its own reactor design, the company aims to become a global SMR manufacturing foundry, working with American nuclear technology developers including NuScale Power and X-energy. With initial commercial projects targeting around 2030, can SMRs become a practical power source for next-generation AI infrastructure?
SK hynix is advancing AI server architecture through HBM, SOCAMM2 memory, and its PEB210 E1.S enterprise SSD with liquid-cooling support. The technologies highlight how memory performance, storage density, and thermal management are becoming interconnected priorities for next-generation AI data centers.
