Silicon Technologies Inc. has secured a $42 million contract to help the Air Force Research Laboratory design and manufacture advanced analog and mixed-signal rad hard microelectronics.
The contract aims to enable electron beam lithography capabilities to support the low-cost development of advanced analog electronics for programs that require high-mix and low-volume integrated circuits, the Department of Defense said Thursday.
Work will occur in Salt Lake City, Utah, through March 20, 2028.
AFRL received one bid for the cost-plus-fixed-fee contract via a competitive competition and is obligating $2.6 million in fiscal 2023 research and development funds at the time of award.
Midvale, Utah-headquartered STI is a semiconductor specialist that designs analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits for commercial and defense applications.
