About the company

Pacific Microchip Corp., a for-profit Subchapter S small business headquartered in Culver City, California, develops application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and digital signal processing systems for aerospace, defense, and scientific instrumentation as a federal prime contractor competing exclusively under total small business set-asides. The vendor holds no subcontract footprint and operates entirely as a prime across federal contracts and grants.

Pacific Microchip's federal footprint is dominated by NASA's Small Business Innovation Research program, where the vendor specializes in mission-critical microelectronics for space-based sensing and data acquisition. Representative work includes a $900 thousand Phase II SBIR contract (awarded June 2025, completion June 2027) for development of an ultra-fast sampling analog-to-digital converter ASIC interfacing with field-programmable gate arrays; a $900 thousand Phase II SBIR award (May 2023) for a low-power 28 GHz selective spectrometer; and a $716 thousand Phase II SBIR definitive contract (June 2022) for a low-power radiation-tolerant 4 GHz bandwidth 16K channel spectrometer ASIC. The vendor also holds active Phase I and Phase III SBIR awards from NASA for segmented superconducting nanowire single-photon detector readout and FFT-based beamformer ASICs, both awarded September 2026 at approximately $225 thousand each. Recent work includes a $139,992 purchase order from the Air Force Research Laboratory (May 2026) for direct digital-to-millimeter-wave data converter development and modeling.

Customer concentration is highly skewed toward NASA's Shared Services Center, which accounts for 37 of 49 prime contract awards (89% of award count) and $16 million of the combined $19.1 million potential value across all awards. The Department of Energy Office of Science holds the second-largest customer position through three project grants totaling approximately $600 thousand for ASIC development for particle detection and high-channel-density digital acquisition systems (CFDA 81.049). Remaining capacity is split among the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ($1.7 million across two awards), NASA Glenn Research Center ($349 thousand, three awards), and the Air Force Research Laboratory ($190 thousand, two awards).

Activity has contracted in recent years—eight awards in 2022 declining to three in 2026—with only four awards (combined potential value $1.5 million) reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months, reducing immediate recompete pressure. All 55 prime awards carry the total small business set-aside designation, with award concentration in research and development NAICS codes (27 awards under physical and engineering sciences R&D, 18 under physical sciences excluding biotechnology) and space R&D and basic research PSC codes. The vendor's capability portfolio centers on specialized analog and digital signal processing electronics for high-frequency, radiation-tolerant, and cryogenic applications used in scientific payloads and space exploration missions.
