Abstract:The rapid growth of AI workloads is driving unprecedented increases in data center power demand, current transients, and thermal stress, exposing fundamental limitations in traditional 48 V rack architectures, low-voltage AC distribution, and line-frequency transformer interfaces. This paper reviews the three stages of architectural shifts required to support next-generation AI data centers and identifies three enabling technological building blocks: high-voltage conversion-ratio DC/DC converters, facility-level low-voltage DC distribution, and medium-voltage solid-state transformers. The advantages, technical challenges, and potential solutions associated with each building block are reviewed. Finally, future research directions and open challenges are discussed.
