Microelectronics play a critical role in furthering the
Department of Defense’s warfighting capabilities. BAE Systems’ work
under the STEAM PIPE project will result in the development and
delivery of advanced chiplet prototypes that will transition into
military systems. The technology will be made available to the
entire U.S. defense industrial base.
“The highly specialized chiplets are small, modular pieces that
can be combined to form a larger, more complex system-on-a-chip,”
said Wes Allen, director of Microelectronics at BAE Systems’ FAST
Labs. “This is the beginning of a new chiplet ecosystem that could
result in breakthroughs like enabling smaller form factor
electronic warfare technology on new platforms.”
Work on the project, which builds on the technology advances of
recent programs and follows a recently announced delivery milestone
on the State-of-the-Art Heterogeneous Integrated Packaging (SHIP)
program, includes collaboration with subcontractors Extoll GmbH and
Comcores ApS.
