About this file

This is a specifications and requirements document for a federal procurement of microwave amplifiers by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Quantum Sensors Division (PML 687). NIST requires three low-noise amplifiers operating in the 4-8 GHz bandwidth with a noise temperature of 1.5K and high IP3 saturation point for use in building a quantum sensors system utilizing microwave SQUID readout technology. The specified item is the LNF-LNC4_8F_LG amplifier with detailed technical requirements including noise figure of 0.022dB typical, 23dB gain, DC power specifications (Vd=0.70V, Id=15mA), and female SMA RF connectors with 9-pin female Nano-D DC connectors. The amplifiers must be compatible with NIST's existing cryostat wiring, mounting hardware, and low-noise biasing electronics.

Delivery requirements specify that equipment must be shipped to NIST's Boulder, Colorado location (325 Broadway, MS 687.08) with completion of delivery, installation, and training no later than 8 weeks from award. Direct delivery to the building is required. NIST will conduct inspection and acceptance testing within 14 days for basic functionality including bias supply installation, with extended evaluation for noise temperature assessment. The base manufacturer warranty is acceptable, and vendor technician on-site services are required for installation, uncrating, equipment setup, and start-up. US citizens are required for on-site work, with foreign nationals requiring 30-day preregistration. The solicitation number is NB687000-26-01521.

TITLE: Mircrowave Amplifers with 1.5K Noise Temperature Requesting Lab/Division/Group: PML 687 (Quanum Sensors Division) General Statement of Need NIST Quantum Sensors Division (QSD; 687) requires 3 amplifiers working in the 4-8 GHz bandwith with 1.5K noise temperature high IP3 saturation point. The amplifiers must be compatible with our existing cryostatat wiring, cryostat amplifier mounting hardward, and our existing low noise biasing electronics. These will be used to build a quantum sensors system using our Microwave Squid readout technology.
