Side-by-side comparison of AI visibility scores, market position, and capabilities
San Jose power management semiconductors (NASDAQ: MPWR) Q3 2025 revenue $737.2M (+18.9% YoY); Enterprise Data $191.5M (+33% QoQ) powering NVIDIA/Google/AMD AI GPU clusters, competing with Texas Instruments and Analog Devices.
About
Monolithic Power Systems, Inc. (MPS) is a San Jose, California-based analog and mixed-signal semiconductor company — publicly traded on NASDAQ (NASDAQ: MPWR) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — designing high-performance power management integrated circuits for computing, cloud infrastructure, storage, automotive, industrial, and consumer applications through approximately 3,800 employees worldwide. In Q3 2025, Monolithic Power Systems reported revenue of $737.2 million (+10.9% sequentially, +18.9% year-over-year), with the Enterprise Data segment (AI server power management) reaching $191.5 million (+33% from Q2 2025) driven by strong demand for power management solutions in next-generation AI platforms from NVIDIA, Google, and AMD. CEO Michael Hsing founded MPS in 1997 and has led the company's growth from a consumer LED driver manufacturer to an AI infrastructure power management leader — with MPS power ICs now embedded in NVIDIA H100, H200, and GB200 GPU clusters as the voltage regulators that convert rack power supply voltage to the precise low-voltage, high-current supply that GPU cores require during AI training inference. MPS's proprietary Intelli-Phase multiphase power architecture delivers 99%+ efficiency for high-density AI compute power delivery — a competitive differentiation that directly affects data center PUE (power usage effectiveness) at scale.
Corning NY specialty glass and optical fiber (NYSE: GLW); upgraded Springboard plan $4B+ incremental sales by 2026 (20% op margin), 30% CAGR optical fiber for AI data centers, Gorilla Glass, competing with Prysmian and AGC.
About
Corning Incorporated is a Corning, New York-based specialty glass, ceramics, and optical physics company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: GLW) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — manufacturing optical fiber and cable (Optical Communications), display glass for LCD and OLED panels (Display Technologies), pharmaceutical glass packaging (Life Sciences), automotive emissions control substrate (Environmental Technologies), and Gorilla Glass for consumer electronics devices (Specialty Materials) through approximately 50,000 employees in 31 countries. In its upgraded "Springboard" growth plan, Corning set a target to add more than $4 billion in annualized sales (upgraded from the original $3 billion target) and achieve a 20% operating margin by end of 2026, with three primary drivers: 30% CAGR growth in the Optical Communications Enterprise segment serving AI data center connectivity, solar glass wafer revenue growth to $2.5 billion by 2028 (supplying advanced glass substrates for solar panels), and display glass pricing actions reflecting supply-demand rebalancing. The AI data center connectivity tailwind has accelerated Corning's optical communications growth — hyperscalers building out AI compute clusters (tens of thousands of GPU servers interconnected with high-bandwidth fiber networks) are driving demand for Corning's fiber optic cable products at unprecedented rates. CEO Wendell Weeks, who has led Corning since 2005, has managed the company through multiple technology transition cycles from CRT glass to LCD glass to fiber optics.
