Full Description

As commercial market forces are driving Integrated Circuit (IC) foundries offshore, the U.S. government is increasingly becoming concerned with the integrity of electronics procured from such offshore, uncontrolled facilities. Similarly, the government is intensely interested in the useful lifespan of these components. DARPA's Microelectronics Technology Office is investigating methods of validating the functionality and reliability of ICs under the Integrity and Reliability in Integrated Circuits (IRIS) program to address this issue. The Information Sciences Institute of the University of Southern California (USC/ISI) proposes to aid the government in performing research in this area by supplying benchmark Test Articles (TAs) to better focus and drive the results of the IRIS program. Over the course of two Phases, the ITAG (IRIS Test Article Generation) project will deliver test articles for Technical Areas 1, 3, and 4a of the IRIS program. These test articles may be comprised of ASIC hardware devices, ASIC design files, or FPGA design files, as mandated by the targeted Technical Area. At the government's direction, the test articles will be delivered to the IRIS contractor community.
