Technology Areas Supported by the Hub
Hub Project Awards
- Commercial Leap-Ahead($2.4M)
- Improving Engine Reliability and SWAP with 350-500°C SiC Electronic Systems
- This project will establish and demonstrate a high-temperature (350-500°C) Silicon Carbide (SiC) based integrated circuit (IC) technology process and companion packaging. This US-based process will be commercially available while also enabling specific next-generation DoD system applications ranging from high temperature actuators for hypersonics to state-of-the-art turbines for fixed-wing, rotary, and unmanned aircraft.
- Improving Engine Reliability and SWAP with 350-500°C SiC Electronic Systems
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) Hardware ($8.7M)
- CHEETA: CMOS+MRAM Hardware for Energy-EfficienT AI
- This project seeks to develop a neuromorphic processor with in-memory computing (IMC) to overcome the von Neumann bottleneck and MRAM for higher density and energy efficiency that enables a new generation of robust energy efficient AI. The desired end-state will see a greater than 100X improvement in energy efficiency and sensor-to-decision latency over current commercial state-of-the-art solutions.
- CHEETA: CMOS+MRAM Hardware for Energy-EfficienT AI
- Electromagnetic Warfare ($6.2M)
- High-Performance Diamond Electronics for Next Generation Defense Systems
- This project seeks to to develop a new generation of diamond-based high power radio frequency (RF) transistors for future electronic warfare systems and the associated power transistors to condition the sensor prime power.
- High-Performance Diamond Electronics for Next Generation Defense Systems
- Secure Edge/Internet of Things (IoT) ($2.8M)
- IMCRYPTO: An Efficient Hardware Crypto Engine based on In-Memory Computing
- This project seeks to fabricate and assess a cryptographic accelerator that offers enhanced security and orders of magnitude improvement to key metrics such as throughput, energy consumption and latency.
- IMCRYPTO: An Efficient Hardware Crypto Engine based on In-Memory Computing
- Secure Edge/Internet of Things (IoT) ($9.2M)
- Modular Digital Direct Waveform Synthesizer w/ Integrated ADC Functionality (DDWS)
- This project seeks to develop the first broadband Digital Direct Waveform Synthesizer that is highly programmable, offers high-speed communication links, direct data acquisition for flexible processing, secure storage, and ability to create a root-of-trust processing environment. Successful development will lead to advancements in performance of cognitive radar, EW, ISR, and ELINT systems.
