PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Office of the Undersecretary of Defense, Research & Engineering (OUSD(R&E))’s Trusted & Assured Microelectronics program is seeking advanced packaging prototype devices that will 1) transition into a targeted military system and 2) be made available to the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) for broad use in military systems.

Microelectronics (ME) are, and will continue to be, the underlying fabric of Department of Defense (DoD) warfighting capabilities. Virtually all the top Under Secretary Defense (USD) Research & Engineering (R&E) priorities rely on some form of advanced, specialized microelectronics. Because of this fundamental reliance on a single enabling technology, the DoD must have assured access to microelectronics for superior system performance. To meet this need, the State-of-the-art Heterogeneous Integrated Packaging (SHIP) program was established under the Trusted and Assured Microelectronics (T&AM) program to develop advanced packaging prototype devices to facilitate the development and use of a self-sustained access model to state-of-the-art (SOTA) microelectronics Advanced Packaging (AP) for DoD applications.
