AI Contract Overview
The NASA Shared Services Center is procuring twenty research-grade Gallium Nitride amplifiers under a sole-source contract authorized under FAR 12.102(a), with GANIFY, INC. identified as the sole provider. The amplifiers must operate at 800°C in air for a minimum of one hour and meet stringent technical specifications including a minimum on/off ratio of 500 at that temperature, unity gain bandwidth of 0.5MHz, gain of at least 20dB, and a rail-to-rail voltage of 15V or less. The amplifier chip size is capped at 2.5mm x 2.5mm, with a specific pin layout requiring diagonally opposite input ports and an output port positioned top right above the input. Performance will occur at NASA Glenn Research Center, and delivery must be completed within six months of purchase order issuance. In-situ and ex-situ electrical testing is required on three representative amplifiers under high-temperature conditions in both nitrogen and air environments, and all twenty units must be functionally verified using a customer-provided dummy silicon carbide pressure sensor chip with an output load between 500 and 1500 ohms. Comprehensive electrical test data must be provided for the three representative units across the full temperature range and for all twenty units at room temperature.
