onsemi has entered into an agreement with Aura Semiconductor to acquire rights to its Vcore power technologies including associated intellectual property (IP) licenses. This strategic deal will enhance onsemi’s power management portfolio and roadmap, accelerating the company’s vision to address the complete power tree in AI data centre applications, from grid to core.
“This acquisition underscores our commitment to solving the energy and efficiency demands of tomorrow’s AI data centers by offering a full range of differentiated intelligent power solutions,” said Sudhir Gopalswamy, Group President of the Intelligent Sensing and Analog and Mixed-Signal Group, onsemi. “Integrating these technologies into our broader power management portfolio will enable us to deliver solutions with superior power density, efficiency and thermals and enable more compute capacity per rack.”
With decades of innovation in silicon and silicon carbide (SiC) technologies, onsemi offers solutions for solid state transformers, power supply units, 800 VDC distribution, and core power delivery. With the integration of these technologies, onsemi will be one of the few companies capable of meeting the stringent power requirements of modern AI infrastructure with scalable, practical designs.
onsemi expects that this transaction will have minimal impact to its GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share in the first fiscal year following close and accretive thereafter. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
