TI unveils high-speed ADC for AI data center monitoring. The new portfolio combines transient fault detection, high-voltage power protection and precision clocking for AI infrastructure. Texas Instruments has introduced the ADC34DSO75, a 3-gigasamples-per-second (GSPS) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) designed to detect transient power events in AI data centers. The device enables continuous, low-power, event-based remote monitoring at nanosecond resolution, helping operators identify power disturbances that conventional monitoring systems may fail to capture. TI presented the ADC alongside new high-voltage power management and clocking solutions at the 2026 Open Compute Project (OCP) Global Summit. As AI workloads grow in scale and complexity, data centers face increasing demands for power delivery, real-time monitoring, and high-speed signal integrity. Brief power-rail glitches can cause system instability and unplanned downtime, while high-voltage distribution architectures require effective fault protection and isolation. The ADC34DSO75 combines high-speed sampling with on-chip digital signal processing to detect and capture transient events on low-voltage, high-current power rails. Its event-based monitoring approach supports continuous operation while reducing the need for on-site debugging and conventional oscilloscope-based measurements. The device is intended to improve remote diagnostics and help operators identify faults before they cause extended service interruptions. For high-voltage power distribution, TI introduced the LMI800PS, an 800V isolated hot-swap controller that integrates functions previously implemented using five separate integrated circuits. The device combines an isolated bias supply and PMBus telemetry in a single package, reducing board area by more than 60%. It provides inrush-current management and power-path protection, enabling controlled power insertion and rapid fault isolation. Supporting both +/-400V and 800V distribution architectures, the LMI800PS features 5kVrms reinforced isolation and more than 8mm of creepage distance. These features help prevent individual load failures from disrupting a shared power bus. Partner Content TI also highlighted the LMK6B bulk acoustic wave (BAW)-based oscillator, designed for low jitter and high power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR). It delivers 9.6fs jitter at 625MHz, supporting timing accuracy and signal integrity in high-speed networking systems as data transmission rates increase toward 3.2Tbps. In addition, TI will demonstrate 800V DC power solutions for NVIDIA's MGX AI Factory Ecosystem, including hot-swap protection and 800V-to-12V and 800V-to-6V DC/DC conversion. The latter incorporates gallium nitride (GaN) power stages for high-density power conversion. The company also scheduled a technical presentation on 800V data center DC/DC design considerations, topology comparisons, and trade-offs for October 15, 2026, at the OCP Global Summit in San Jose, California.

Texas Instruments (TI) unveiled a new analog-to-digital converter (ADC) at the Open Compute Project Global Summit on October 12, 2026. The ADC34DSO75 enables 24/7, low-power remote monitoring at nanosecond resolution, which TI says is thousands of times faster than current solutions. Power-rail glitches that go undetected can cause unplanned downtime, which can cost data center operators hundreds of thousands of dollars an hour. The 3 gigasamples per second chip captures transient faults in real time, removing the need for on-site debugging and oscilloscopes. TI also introduced the LMI800PS, an 800V isolated hot-swap controller. It replaces a five-chip discrete design with one package and cuts board area by more than 60%. The LMK6B oscillator delivers 9.6fs jitter at 625MHz.

TI unveils new ADC to enable nanosecond-level telemetry and minimize downtime in AI data centers. At the Open Compute Project (OCP) Global Summit, Texas Instruments (TI) debuted the first analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to enable 24/7, low-power, event-based remote monitoring at nanosecond resolution. As AI workloads rapidly increase, data center operators face significant challenges around power instability, inadequate real-time monitoring and signal degradation, all of which can lead to costly downtime. TI is addressing these challenges through its new ADC device and other analog solutions designed to tackle the challenges of scaling artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructures. Demonstrations on display in TI's booth, No. E45, at OCP include: * Real-time nanosecond-level telemetry: TI's ADC34DSO75 is the industry's highest performance 3 gigasamples per second (GSPS) ADC, enabling 24/7, low-power, event-based remote monitoring at nanosecond resolution - thousands of times faster than what current solutions offer. Existing monitoring solutions often fail to detect the nanosecond-level power-rail glitches that cause costly, unplanned downtime in data centers. By combining ultra-high-speed sampling with advanced on-chip digital signal processing in a small form factor, the ADC34DSO75 detects and captures transient fault events in real time. As the industry's first solution to offer fully remote, event-based telemetry, the device eliminates the need for on-site debugging and oscilloscopes. By providing continuous, high-resolution monitoring of low-voltage, high-current power rails, the ADC34DSO75 helps data centers minimize downtime - which can cost operators hundreds of thousands of dollars an hour - while optimizing grid power efficiency. This compact, efficient solution offers hyperscalers unmatched remote diagnostic capabilities at a fraction of the size and cost of conventional monitoring methods. * Reliable high-voltage power delivery: The LMI800PS is the industry's first 800V isolated hot-swap controller, replacing a complex discrete solution requiring five integrated circuits with a single high-density package that delivers in-rush current and power path protection. The integration of an isolated bias supply and PMBus telemetry reduces board area by more than 60% and simplifies high-voltage designs. The LMI800PS enables safe power insertion and fast fault isolation, meeting safety standards with 5kVrms reinforced isolation and more than 8mm creepage. This prevents a single load failure from disrupting the shared power bus and maximizes data center stability. Supporting both +/-400V and 800V distributions, the device provides a scalable solution for diverse rack architectures, accelerating the deployment of high-efficiency power systems required for next-generation AI infrastructures. * Ultra-low jitter signal integrity: The LMK6B is a bulk acoustic wave (BAW)-based oscillator that delivers best-in-class jitter performance and power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR). As data center transmission rates approach 3.2Tbps, the margin for timing error shrinks significantly, and even minute jitter can increase bit error rates and cause system instability. The LMK6B provides industry-leading jitter performance of 9.6fs at 625MHz, ensuring reliable performance and preserving signal integrity for next-generation, AI-driven networking infrastructures. "As AI workloads drive massive scale, the need for real-time visibility and architectural stability has never been greater," said Karthik Vasanth, vice president and general manager for TI's Data, Converters and Clocks business unit. "By delivering industry-leading solutions for high-speed telemetry, advanced power protection and precision timing, TI is enabling hyperscalers and operators to design the next generation of AI data centers with optimized performance and minimal downtime."
