- Description
- This synopsis is being posted to both the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) page located at http://www.fbo.gov and the Navy Electronic Commerce on Line (NECO) site located at http://www.neco.navy.mil. While it is understood that FBO is the single point of entry for posting of synopses and solicitations to the internet, NECO is the alternative in case FBO is unavailable. Please feel free to use either site to access information posted by the Navy Sea Systems Command. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. Proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. FAR Subpart 13.5 will be used. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division, intends to procure S-BAND POWER AMPLIFIERS in FY07 and FY08 as follows: CLIN 0001 - Base Period - 9 units; CLIN 0002 - Option 1 ? 8 units; CLIN 0003 - Option 2 ? 17 units; CLIN 0004 - Option 3 ? 34 units; CLIN 0005 - Option 4 ? 17 units; CLIN 0006 - Option 5 ? 17 units; CLIN 0007 - Option 6 ? 34 units. DELIVERABLES shall be (a) microwave amplifiers; (b) test report for each amplifier, showing measured output power at 2.9, 3.2, and 3.5 GHz, measurements shall be made using a pulsed CW waveform consisting of a 10 microsecond pulse width with a 100 microsecond pulse repetition frequency; (c) drawing in Adobe Acrobat format providing the exterior dimensions of the amplifier, location and size of through holes for mounting the amplifier to a base plate or heat sink, and location, type and pin out descriptions of any connectors. DELIVERY: Shall be 3 months after receipt of order (ARO) and 3 months after an option is exercis ed. SPECIFICATIONS for the S Band Power Amplifier are as follows: Frequency of Operation: 2.9-3.5 GHz minimum. Peak Output Power: 100W minimum, measured at an amplifier base plate temperature of 25?C with 10% duty cycle and a 10 microsecond pulse width. Small Signal Gain: Greater than or equal to 45 dB. Small Signal Gain Flatness: Less than ?1.5dB over 2.9-3.5 GHz. Input / Output Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR): Less than 2:1. Harmonics: The maximum power in the output radiated harmonics shall be greater than 25 dB below the carrier power, measured with the carrier power at the 1 dB compression point. Spurious Signals: The maximum power in the output spurious emissions of the amplifier operated within the published specifications shall be greater than 60 dB below the carrier. Pulse Width and Duty Cycle: The amplifier shall support pulse widths between 1-100 microseconds, with a duty cycle varying from 0 to 100% percent. Noise Figure: Less than 10 dB from 2.9-3.5 GHz measured during small signal operation. Prime Power Voltage: Th e Prime Power Voltage shall be vendor defined, in the range of 30 to 50 volts DC. Only a single DC supply voltage is allowed. Power Added Efficiency (PAE): Greater than 25 percent DC to RF output efficiency, measured at the amplifiers 3 dB compression point, with the amplifier base plate at 25?C. Power Amplifier Enable: The amplifier shall accept a Power Amplifier Enable signal that will be used to turn the amplifier output power stage on and off. The signal shall be a TTL signal that when ?High?, turns the amplifier off, and that when ?Low? or not present, enables the power amplifier. Power Amplifier Enable Turn-On Time Delay: The delay between the Power Amplifier Enable signal transitioning from a logic ?High? to a logic ?Low?, to the output power reaching the specified power output level, shall be less than 5 microseconds. Power Amplifier Enable Turn-Off Time Delay: The delay between the Power Amplifier Enable signal transitioning from a logic ?Low? to a logic ?High? , to the output power falling from the specified power output level to a level 50 dB below the specified output power level shall be less than 5 microseconds. Amplifier Mean Time Between Failure: Greater than 20,000 hours min at 50 deg C base plate temperature. This will be demonstrated either through analysis or through comparison to an existing design. Nominal Input/Output Impedance: 50 Ohms. Operating Temperature: The amplifier shall operate with a base plate temperature between -40?C to +80?C. Storage Temperature: The amplifier shall not be damaged during storage at temperatures between -40?C to +80?C. Relative Humidity: The amplifier shall not be damaged at a relative humidity between 0% to 85%, non-condensing. Sealing: The amplifier shall be environmentally sealed. Input Overdrive: No damage shall occur if the RF input power is increased to a level greater than 10 dB above the input drive level required to achieve 1 dB output power saturation. Load VSWR: The a mplifier shall not be damaged when exposed to an open or short circuit at the output port. Reverse Polarity Protection: No damage shall occur by reversing the power supply positive voltage and ground when connecting to the amplifier. Over Voltage Protection: The amplifier shall include over voltage protection to shut down the amplifier at voltages above the specified operating voltage. Under Voltage Lockout: The amplifier shall include an under voltage lockout to keep the power amplifier disabled until the input voltage exceeds a vendor defined value. RF Connectors: Input and output connectors shall be Type N female. Physical Size: The power amplifier shall be less than or equal to 5.0 inches by 7.0 inches by 1.25 inches, exclusive of any heat sink. Weight: The amplifier shall weigh less than 2.0 pounds. Cooling: The amplifier shall be capable of meeting all performance specifications while being cooled by forced air blown across the heat sink or while bolted to a properly designed liquid cooled heat plate. Flatness: The base plate of the amplifier used for heat transfer purposes in cooling the amplifier shall be flat to within 0.005 inches. Warranty: The vendor shall warrant that all amplifiers be free from defects in material and workmanship under use as specified for a period of one year from the date of delivery. The vendor shall further agree to repair or replace, at its discretion, any failure that upon the vendor?s inspection is determined to be a result of workmanship or material defect.
