E-MAIL: Gail Hamblet, hamblet@plk.af.mil. The Air Force Research Laboratory's Space Vehicles Directorate is requesting technical and cost information for digital signal processors functionally equivalent to the ADSP-21020 that are radiation tolerant. The same information is requested for associated circuit boards that are radiation tolerant and/or targeted for military satellite communication (MILSATCOM) upgrades. The technical documentation should include data sheets, package pinout footprint, package materials, product layout with dimensions, performance characterization data, and year 2000 compliance information. Cost information for 20 lidded and 20 de-lidded processors and/or 5 boards should include availability, price, and price reduction for shared test data if applicable. These parts are to be used for radiation hardness testing and evaluation for several Air Force system program offices who plan to fly one version of this processor or circuit board in satellites for the Space Based Infrared System, MILSATCOM, and various classified programs. Foreign owned firms are advised that there are no restrictions or Department of Defense certifications required in order to submit the requested information. It is anticipated that these efforts will be unclassified. The technical point of contact is Steven Sampson at AFRL/VSSE telephone 505-846-5816 or electronic mail to sampson@plk.af.mil. Interested parties should submit the requested information to Gail Hamblet, Contracting Officer, telephone 505/846-1401 or electronic mail to hamblet@plk.af.mil, at AFRL Det 8/PKVE, 2251 Maxwell St SE, Bldg. 424, Rm. 202, Kirtland AFB NM 87117-5773. Responses should be received within 30 days after publication of this announcement. This announcement is not a solicitation or request for proposal. It is a request for information only.
