[SANTA CLARA, California] Nvidia is investing US$3.5 billion into MediaTek, deepening collaboration with the Taiwanese chipmaker at a time when it’s working to persuade more companies to build chips that plug into its dominant data center ecosystem.
Nvidia will buy bonds convertible into MediaTek shares, the companies said in a joint statement on Monday (Aug 31).
The investment broadens a partnership between the two chip designers that will see MediaTek using NVLink Fusion and the newly announced NVHBM technology as part of an Nvidia tech suite to help components communicate more seamlessly in data centres. The smaller company is trying to challenge Broadcom and Marvell Technology by helping owners of data centres create their own components.
