Description

Title: Sources Sought Notice for High-performance FPGA board BACKGROUND The semiconductor supply chain is global, specialized, and interconnected. Chipmakers do business with thousands of individual suppliers that provide the highly complex materials and tools used to produce semiconductors. To address the lack of full visibility into the semiconductors markets supply chain and R&D ecosystem gaps NIST will conduct the measurement science, or metrology, critical to the development of new materials, packaging, and production methods in chip manufacturing. The Spin Electronics Group in the Applied Physics Division of the Physical Measurement Laboratory requires the purchase of a high-performance field programable gate array embedded evaluation board. This board will be used in our lab to test data sanitization methods for high performance magnetic random-access memory. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has a requirement for a AMD Virtex™ UltraScale+™ 56G PAM4 VCU129 FPGA Evaluation KitFPGA and is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing a solution that will provide the requirement above: HOW TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE In responding to this notice, please DO NOT PROVIDE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Please include only the following information, readable in either Microsoft Word 365, Microsoft Excel 365, or .pdf format, in the response: Submit the response by email to the Primary Point of Contact and, if specified, to the Secondary Point of Contact listed in this notice as soon as possible, and preferably before the closing date and time of this notice. Please note that to be considered for award under any official solicitation, the entity must be registered and “active” in SAM at the time of solicitation response. Provide the complete name of your company, address, name of contact for follow-up questions, their email, their phone number and, if your company has an active registration in https://sam.gov, your company's Unique Entity ID (UEI). Identify the equipment that your company sells that can meet the objectives addressed in the BACKGROUND section of this notice. For each product recommended to meet the Government's requirement, provide the following: Manufacturer name Model number Technical specifications If your company is not the manufacturer, provide information on your company's status as an authorized reseller of the product(s) Describe performance capabilities of the product(s) your company recommends to meet the Government's requirements. Additionally, if there are other features or functions that you believe would assist NIST in meeting its objectives described above, please discuss in your response. Discuss whether the equipment that your company sells and which you describe in your response to this notice may be customized to specifications and indicate any limits to customization. Identify any aspects of the NIST market research notice, including instructions, and draft min…
