Chroma Unveils Next-Generation High Power Density AC Source at OCP APAC Summit 2026

03 Aug 2026

Chroma ATE Inc. participated in the 2026 OCP APAC Summit hosted by the Open Compute Project (OCP), held at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center.

Under the theme "Leading the Future of AI," the summit explored AI clusters and computing, servers and data centers, power and cooling technologies, optical networking, and advanced packaging. Presentations covered the latest developments across the technology lifecycle, from system design and hardware configuration to operations management.

Introducing the Chroma 61860HF: 60 kVA in a Compact 5U Form Factor

At this year's summit, Chroma officially launched the 61860HF Regenerative Grid Simulator, the latest addition to its AC source portfolio.

Leveraging Chroma's latest advancements in power electronics, digital control, and cooling technologies, the 61860HF delivers up to 60 kVA of output power in a compact 5U chassis, setting a new benchmark in AC source power density.

Compared to conventional solutions in the same power class, the 61860HF achieves 14.7 times higher power density and an 87% reduction in system height and weight – transforming what was once a floor-standing cabinet system into a powerful benchtop instrument.

The unit can also be integrated into automated test system racks, working alongside other test equipment to form a complete power testing solution, giving users superior flexibility in both application and space configuration.

High Bandwidth and Fast Transient Response for ITIC and Grid Disturbance Simulation

Designed for the power testing demands of AI-era servers, the 61860HF substantially increases bandwidth while delivering low ripple noise, stable output, and fast transient response.
These output characteristics provide a reliable AC testing platform for critical AI server power validation, including fast dynamic response, extreme power line disturbance (PLD) simulation, and ITIC pre-compliance testing.

As data centers worldwide adopt higher-voltage, higher-power architectures, the 61860HF is also equipped with output voltage extension capability (Extend Vout), high-voltage operation through series connection of multiple units, and advanced fiber-optic communication for parallel operation. These capabilities provide a comprehensive and reliable AC power testing solution at a pivotal moment for AI power infrastructure development.
