Maybe give us an overview of solid-state transformers themselves and the problems they solve and how they're different and can do a few more things than the traditional transformers.
5:05
Traditional transformers, basically a hunk of iron with copper wound around it, it's a massive amount of transformers installed globally.
5:18
But just like transportation, transformers, right? You could have a little scooter.
5:25
You could have a bicycle, a scooter.
5:27
You could have a rickshaw.
5:29
You could have a car.
5:30
You could have a Mack truck.

So what are the advantages of the multiport approach? What are some examples of ways that's useful?
8:13
So just for the audience that's not maybe that familiar with Digimetrics and the multiport solutions, how do your solutions work and how do you take like different inputs, different voltages, different frequencies?
8:27
So one of the things that I did back in 2011 to 2013 when I was working for an SST company is we were developing an SST, a solid state transformer, to do AC conversion to AC conversion.
8:42
And we were pitching like, oh, it'll clean up the power.
8:44
It'll do this.
8:45
It'll do that.
8:46
But we realized after two years of work and spending millions and millions of dollars that that was probably one of the dumbest things we could have done.
8:54
Why? It's because you're taking a hunk of iron and a hunk of copper wound around it with some insulation that's going to last 40, 50 years, you know, and it's going to last in heat and it's going to last in thermal cycles.

So is there stuff beyond that? the current generation of systems, if you push this out 10, 15 years, where you think SSTs would be able to be more capable of handling the future load at the end of a 15-year lifecycle for the data center facility itself that was built to handle those chips?
