Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- OmniOn joined the Open Compute Project on April 16, 2026, improving hyperscaler access.
- The Milpitas office opened April 6, 2026, signaling a real push into Silicon Valley.
- Roger Stonecipher joined July 9, 2026, strengthening commercial execution during the AI boom.
What critics are saying
- AI data-center power is crowded; Delta, Vicor, and Murata target the same sockets.
- OmniOn's fortunes hinge on hyperscaler design wins, with no disclosed customer concentration data.
- If QODN adoption stalls before 2027, AcBel's $505 million acquisition becomes stranded.
What makes OmniOn Power unique
- OmniOn sells DOSA-compliant power modules with quarter-brick migration from QODE to QODN.
- On October 1, 2026, QODN bus converters hit 98.5% peak efficiency for AI racks.
- OmniOn's ABB heritage and AcBel backing combine telecom, industrial, and data-center power expertise.

Company News
OmniOn Power has launched new high-efficiency Osprey bus converters designed for AI data centres and high-density computing applications. The QODN series includes four models ranging from 1,300W to 2,600W, delivering peak efficiencies exceeding 98.4%. The converters provide 48/54V-to-12V conversion in a quarter-brick footprint. According to Philip Zuk, SVP and GM of OmniOn Power's AI and Data Centre business, the new series offers up to 1% efficiency improvement over previous-generation modules without requiring additional board space. Key features include a 40-60V input range, regulated 12V output, integrated PMBus interface, and operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The converters are designed to address power conversion and thermal challenges as AI server racks scale to higher power densities.
OmniOn Power has appointed Philip Zuk as Senior Vice President and General Manager of its AI and Data Center business unit. Zuk brings over 25 years of experience in global power electronics and semiconductors to address power challenges in AI-driven data centres. Zuk's previous roles include guiding Transphorm through its IPO and acquisition by Renesas, and leading product marketing and business development at Microsemi, Vishay Siliconix and Transphorm. He also founded PCZ Consulting Group, advising on go-to-market strategy for power electronics companies. CEO David French said the appointment strengthens OmniOn's position in the fast-paced AI infrastructure market. The company specialises in power conversion technology, serving sectors including 5G, data centres and Industry 4.0.
New FPLX-series point-of-load (POL) modules provide design flexibility with compact 10 millimeter (mm) by 10 mm footprints. High efficiency and power density make the FPLX-series DC/DC converters ideal for a wide variety of networking, data center, telecom, and industrial applications.Power density continues to play an essential role in printed circuit board (PCB) design across industries and applications. With increased computing capacity demands to support today’s connected and fast-paced world, board designers are challenged with packing as many value-added features as possible onto ever-shrinking PCBs. To address power density and efficiency challenges, OmniOn PowerTM has added new FPLX-series DC/DC converters to its DLynx IIITM family of non-isolated point-of-load (POL) modules. The new 15-amp (A) FPLX015, 20A FPLX020 and 30A FPLX030 modules feature compact 10 mm by 10 mm footprints and provide power densities of 97 A/in2, 129 A/in2 and 194 A/in2, respectively. The common footprint of all three modules enables design flexibility, allowing customers to easily upgrade or downgrade the current throughout the design process to meet the specific needs of end applications
The US ABB Power Conversion division in Plano, Texas, was acquired by Taiwanese US-based AcBel Polytech.
ABB Power Conversion added two low-power Barracuda-series DC/DC converters, the KBVS008 and KBVW010 modules.
