GOOGL ANTHROPIC OPENAI META 2454.TW
Google is a key and growing custom accelerator (TPU) customer, with a new long-term agreement for multi-tens of billions of dollars of TPUs annually, indicating deepening reliance on Broadcom's custom silicon and networking.
"During the quarter, we delivered Ironwood TPU v7, version 7, in high volume to both Entropic and Google. At the same time, We began production shipments of the next generation TPU version 8i for Google."
GOOGL WATCH
Anthropic (Entropic) is scaling its custom TPU deployments aggressively, becoming Broadcom's largest XPU customer by 2027, with planned gigawatt-scale deployments indicating massive demand for custom accelerators.
"Starting with the one gigawatt of iron wood we are deploying in 2026, we expect Entropic to deploy another five gigawatts of TPU V version 8i in 2027. And in 2028, we have clear line of sight to deliver an incremental 10 gigawatts"
ANTHROPIC WATCH
OpenAI is ramping production of its custom accelerator 'Jalapeno' with Broadcom, and plans to deploy over 5 gigawatts by 2028, making it a top-two customer and signaling a major shift away from merchant GPUs.
"In Q3, We also ship Jalapeno, OpenAI's first generation custom accelerator which outperforms Grace Blackwell GPU for inference workloads."
OPENAI WATCH
Meta is on track to receive three generations of custom MTIA accelerators from Broadcom, representing a significant and growing source of custom silicon demand.
"Our partnership with Meta to deliver multiple generations of MTIA XPUs remains on track. Between now and the end of 2027, we will be delivering three generations of MTIA accelerators to Meta."
META WATCH
Broadcom claims to be shipping its next-gen TPU before a competing MediaTek product that was initiated earlier, highlighting its execution speed in custom silicon design.
"Broadcom is now shipping the TPU version 8i ahead of the MediaTek version V8t, which in fact was initiated earlier."
2454.TW WATCH
Broadcom's custom Ethernet switch 'Tomahawk Ultra' is enabling scale-up networking within GPU/XPU clusters for the first time, potentially disrupting proprietary GPU interconnect solutions. — If Ethernet-based scale-up proves viable, it could challenge proprietary, high-bandwidth scale-up networks, opening the door for Broadcom's networking solutions in a key segment where Nvidia's NVLink has been dominant.
"As OpenAI announced last week, Jalapeno outperforms the Grace Blackwell Ultra in performance, but want latency, throughput, and power. And it's actually comparable. to Verirubin GPUs in running OpenAI workloads."

INTC WATCH
Broadcom is shifting to a co-investment model, creating the AI XPV platform with Apollo/Blackstone to fund and deploy over 20 gigawatts of compute, effectively financing customer demand with outside capital. — This decouples Broadcom's revenue growth from the front-line AI labs' capital budgets, creating a new, fully-funded demand pool and enabling them to scale customers like Anthropic faster than internal cash flows would allow.
"For Entropic, as you know, for 2026, we are providing access to Broadcom TPU based compute of over 1 gigawatts. In April, we entered into an agreement to enable Entropic to access another 5 gigawatts of next generation TPU based compute"
ANTHROPIC WATCH
Despite gross margin dilution from AI mix, Broadcom's guidance is exceptionally bullish, with AI revenue expected to nearly double again in FY2027 and reach over $100 billion, driven by 'insatiable' demand and strong bookings.
"For the full year 2026, we expect to achieve AI semiconductor revenue of $56 billion, up approximately 180% from fiscal 2025. Now, we expect this momentum to continue into fiscal year 2027 and reiterate our AI semiconductor revenue"

ANTHROPIC WATCH
Google's demand for Broadcom's custom TPUs remains strong, with growth expected to continue through 2027 and beyond with next-generation TPUs.
"For Google, we continue our trajectory of growth in 26 with strong demand for the seventh generation Ironwood TPU. In 2027 and beyond, we expect to see even stronger demand from next generations of TPU."
GOOGL WATCH
Broadcom is refuting rumors of Meta's MTIA program being canceled, confirming active shipments and strong scaling to multiple gigawatts in 2027 and beyond.
"Now, contrary to recent analyst reports, Meta's custom accelerator MTIA roadmap is alive and well. We're shipping now. And in fact, for the next generation XPUs, we will scale to multiple gigawatts in 27 and beyond."
META WATCH
OpenAI is a new, sixth customer for Broadcom's custom XPUs, expected to deploy over 1GW of compute capacity in 2027, further validating Broadcom's custom silicon strategy.

Broadcom's guidance is aggressively positive, with AI chip revenue expected to exceed $100B in 2027, driven by custom XPU deployments and secure supply chain capacity.
"we have line of sight to achieve ai revenue from for chips just chips in excess of 100 billion in 2027"
AVGO WATCH
Broadcom's custom XPU deployments are shifting from single-purpose training to specialized, disaggregated architectures with separate chips for training and inference, driving a need for more silicon per customer. — This signifies a strategic shift away from Nvidia's general-purpose GPUs, as hyperscalers and LLM developers demand increasingly specialized silicon to improve efficiency and performance.
"they will start to develop two chips each year simultaneously. One for training, one for inference to be specialized."
NVDA WATCH
Broadcom is guiding for direct attach copper (DAC) to remain the primary scale-up interconnect through 400G, delaying the adoption of co-packaged optics (CPO) despite being a leader in the technology. — This indicates a slower-than-expected adoption timeline for CPO, potentially impacting companies with significant CPO investments, while validating Broadcom's DAC-centric approach.
"we expect as a composition of our total AI revenue in any quarter, that we'll be ranging between probably 33% to 40% AI networking components."
