The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Quiet Propeller using Carbon Nanotube Thin Film Thermophone

    SBC: GREAT LAKES SOUND & VIBRATION INC            Topic: AFX20DTCSO1

    The GLSV and MTU team are proposing a novel acoustic method using carbon nanotube (CNT) thin film as a thermophone embedded into the tip and trailing edge of advanced unmanned aerial vehicles to actively reduce propeller noise.  The of CNT thermophones in active noise cancellation has been demonstrated by the team in engine exhaust applications as well as fan applications to date.  The applicati ...

  8. Cryogenic Adiabatic CMOS for Ultra-Low Power Circuits

    SBC: INDIANA INTEGRATED CIRCUITS LLC            Topic: AFX20DTCSO1

    This project will design analog and digital CMOS circuits for cryogenic operation. Power dissipation is the greatest challenge facing the development of electronic systems today.  Both passive (leakage) power and active (operating) power are growing at unsustainable rates. Cryogenic temperatures offer a number of advantages to CMOS circuits. Foremost is that leakage currents are reduced leading t ...
