The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) has awarded Intel Foundry Phase Three of its Rapid Assured Microelectronics Prototypes – Commercial (RAMP-C) program. The award was announced through the National Security Technology Accelerator's (NSTXL) consortium-based Strategic and Spectrum Missions Advanced Resilient Trusted Systems Other Transaction Authority (S2MARTS OTA) program. The third phase of RAMP-C advances the tape-out and testing of early defense industrial base (DIB) product prototypes, signifying a critical milestone for the program that highlights the readiness of Intel 18A process technology, intellectual property (IP) and ecosystem solutions for high-volume manufacturing (HVM).
