TITLE: 0.5 mm Offset Short Primary Calibration Kit

Requesting Laboratory / Division / Group:

Communications Technology Laboratory Radio Frequency Technology Division Guided Wave Electromagnetics Group (672.03)

General Statement of Need:

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), CTL/RFT, in Boulder, CO has a requirement to produce broadband electrical calibration artifacts as part of its calibration service for scattering parameter traceability from dc up to 250 GHz. Precision manufactured calibration artifacts are required to maintain accurate traceable calibrations for internal and external customers.

To achieve traceability for microwave frequencies, a series of offset short devices will need to be provided in a disassembled state so that dimensional metrology staff at NIST can measure them. Then the parts will need to be re-assembled to complete the microwave verification kit.

Item Specifications and Quantities:

Item 1: Precision Offset Short Calibration Kit in 0.5 mm Connector Type Quantity: 1 EACH Specifications: 1.1 Disassembled

1.2 Shall contain at least six offset short calibration artifacts of each connector sex (12 total: 6 male and 6 female).

1.3 Manufactured with metrology grade dimensional

specifications.

1.4 Offset short lengths shall be designed such that the kit

performs calibrations in the range of 30 GHz to 260 GHz.

1.5 Measured mechanical data with k=2 uncertainties

Item 2: Assembly of Offset Short Components Quantity: 1 JOB Specifications: 2.1 Assembly of the offset short components (Item 1).

2.2 Assembly process will occur after NIST performs dimensional metrology on the components.

Item 3: Precision Short Open Load Kit

Quantity: 1 KIT Specifications: 3.1 Lowband load - male 0.5 mm

3.2 Lowband load - female 0.5 mm

3.3 Offset open - male 0.5 mm

3.4 Offset open - female 0.5 mm

3.5 Offset short - male 0.5 mm

3.6 Offset short - female 0.5 mm

3.7 Components shall be fabricated as metrology grade

components. In addition, the

3.8 Kit shall contain relevant torque wrenches

Item 4: Spare Components for Dimensioning Quantity: 1 SET Specifications: 4.1 0.5 mm connector type

4.2 Pre-slotted female center conductor

4.3 Slotted and plated but not heat-treated/formed

4.4 Spare male center conductors

4.5 Spare female center conductors

Item 5: Test Port Adapters in 0.5 mm Quantity: 1 SET Specifications: 5.1 Assembled test ports (1 male, 1 female).

5.2 Metrology grade

Vendor Requirements

1. Possess at time of award/contracting an Export Control Classification Number (ECCN).

2. Possess at time of award/contracting a Unique Entity Identification Number (UEI) which registration is listed as “Active” on the GSA System for Award Management (SAM.gov).

Section Requirements/Specifications

Planning Considerations

☐ List any visits required to allow potential vendors to see site specific constraints.

☐ N/A [Explain Requirements.] ☐ US citizen required on-site (foreign nationals require pre-registration 30 days prior to visit.)

☐ Vendor Representative On-Site more than three (3) days.

☒ Other Considerations:

This procurement has three stages:

1) manufacturing,

2) dimensioning at NIST, and

3) assembly of parts.

Since step 2 depends on NIST timelines outside of the vendor’s control, the vendor timelines should be considered separately, and there should be partial payment and partial delivery.
