Silicone Chips Fabrication

NASA/NSSC has a requirement for Fabrication of silicon chips with custom NASA design in TSI Semiconductor Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) processes.

NASA/NSSC intends to issue a sole source contract to TSI Semiconductors under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i).  The parts are a custom integrated circuit containing a NASA GSFC intellectual property (IP) design that has been designed in the TSI cmhv7sf CMOS process from TSI Semiconductors and for that reason can only be obtained from a single source/vendor, TSI Semiconductors.

NASA/NSSC will be the procuring center for this effort on behalf of NASA/ Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC).  Performance will be at the vendors site.

The NAICS Code for this procurement is 334413.
