Description

This notice 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; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This procurement is being conducted under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). NASA/JSC plans to acquire the layout design, fabrication and assembly of a MiniAMERCAM Avionics Processor BPrinted Circuit Board (PCB). Specifications: This PCB is extremely complex with 223 plus components all to be placed back to back (top side and bottom side) on a multi-layer board 5.7" diameter. The component mix includes relatively large SMT DC/DC converters, high pinout BGA (255 & 652 pin) packages, memories, high speed LVDS serial buses, and high current valve drivers. The layout of the high speed processor and memory components requires extensive analytical and physical design tools along with highly skilled, experienced engineers for proper board design. Special requirements such as tight control of propagation delay, and timing skew and proper grounding shielding are required on the high speed processor/memory circuits as well as tight tolerance inpendance control, grounding, shielding between LVDS and digital signals, all need to be considered. Details: Stencil for Top Side (Laser Cut) Stencil for Bottom Side (Laser Cut) Programming PCB Tooling and Test PCB Layout and Design -- 4.5 weeks Tooling & Fixtures Manufacturing Set-up Material Handling Freight PCB Cost for 6 pieces Material Burden & Assembly Labor for 2 units Requested PCB time: 5 days or 10 days -- (request quotes on both) Requested Delivery of PCB: on or about August 15, 2001 The provisions and clauses in the RFQ are those in effect through FAC 97-25.
