Compute

Strengthening

Compute demand remains strong, while value is spreading into custom silicon and advanced packaging.

AI accelerator package representing the compute layer.

What changed

AI infrastructure demand is expanding beyond a single accelerator architecture. GPU platforms remain central, while custom silicon and system-level integration are becoming more important.

The constraint is increasingly the complete compute module: silicon, memory, packaging, substrates, power delivery and qualification must arrive together.

Why it matters

Demand

Training and inference capacity continues to expand.

Architecture breadth

GPU and custom-ASIC roadmaps are advancing in parallel.

Packaging capacity

Advanced packaging remains a critical throughput variable.
