Where ADI is headed
Analog Devices is the company most investors forgot to put in the AI bucket. While Nvidia gets the trillion-dollar headlines for the digital brain of AI, ADI sits one layer down, converting the messy real world (voltage, temperature, current, vibration, light) into the clean digital signals those GPUs actually need. Every AI datacentre going up in 2026 needs a staggering amount of power management silicon, and ADI's content per rack has roughly tripled versus the previous generation of hyperscale builds. That is the story behind the 37% revenue growth print, and it is only getting started.
