Inference demand drives CSP ASIC growth past GPUs; Google's next TPU adopts EMIB-T, with substrate yield key to cost.

Key Highlights

  • ASIC Share Climbs: Google-led CSP ASICs outgrow GPU servers.
  • Inference Focus: Efficiency and cost push CSPs to in-house chips.
  • Multi-Vendor TPU: Google adds MediaTek and Marvell beside Broadcom.
  • EMIB-T Hurdle: Substrate yield decides TPU v9 cost edge over CoWoS.
