Sources Sought - Transceiver-based Optical Pulse Generator Development Platform
Contract Opportunity Analysis
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from vendors capable of providing a Transceiver-based Optical Pulse Generator Development Platform, as part of a market research initiative. This platform is intended for use in next-generation Josephson Arbitrary Waveform Synthesizer Standard Reference Instrument systems and must meet specific technical requirements, including a high-speed PCIe FPGA board with at least four QSFP-DD cages and a Xilinx Virtex UltraScale+ or larger FPGA. Interested businesses are encouraged to submit their capability statements, including company profiles and product specifications, to Daniel Kent at daniel.kent@nist.gov by the specified deadline, as this opportunity may lead to a competitive procurement process with potential small business set-aside considerations.
