    Contitutation Sheet 26Q5604.pdf
    This document, a continuation sheet for reference N0017326Q5604, details the procurement of a multichannel option multimode switch (HF-MULTICHAN) and a four-channel digital proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller (HF-PID4). The multimode switch includes a switcher unit and a connection cable to a wavelength meter. The HF-PID4 is a PCIe x1 expansion card designed for active stabilization and dynamic wavelength tuning of up to four lasers, offering a +/- 10V output range with 16-bit resolution and requiring a minimum input impedance of 10 kOhm on the laser. PCIe to BNC breakout cables are also provided. This document outlines specific items and their quantities for a federal government procurement, likely an RFP or contract amendment, focusing on advanced laser control and switching equipment.
    Statement of Needs RFQ - 26Q5604.pdf
    N0017326Q5604 is a Statement of Need for a High Frequency Acoustics for Optomechanical Signal Processing system. The purpose is to acquire a multichannel switch and PID laser frequency stabilization system to integrate with existing equipment, enabling the generation and control of a coherent optical source with a beat frequency exceeding 100 GHz. This capability is essential for elastic wave generation, confinement, and readout in the Extremely High Frequency (EHF, 30–300 GHz) range for optical-mechanical signal processing. The scope requires the vendor to provide a 4-input HF-MULTICHAN multimode switch and a PCIe extension card with software for active stabilization of up to four lasers, both compatible with the existing WS6-600 wavemeter. The period of performance is 16 weeks after award, with delivery to Code 7130, 4555 Overlook Ave. SW, Washington DC 20375, Attention: Andrea Graves. Acceptance criteria dictate that all items must be received and fully functional.
