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. MULTI-GIGAHERTZ BANDWIDTH HIGH PINOUT DENSITY WAFER PROBE

    SBC: Cascade Microtech, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    A MEMBRANE TYPE WAFER PROBE IS PROPOSED WHICH, AT THE END OF PHASE II, WILL ACHIEVE TRANSMISSION OF SIGNALS FROM TESTER TO DIE WITH LOW ABBRATIONS FOR A 100 PS RISETIME. CAPABILITIES WILL INCLUDE LOW-IMPEDANCE GROUND AND POWER CONTACTS, WITH LSI-LEVEL NUMBERS AND DENSITIES OF SIGNAL LINES. PHASE I WORK WILL DETERMINE THE DESIGN PARAMETERS NECESSARY FOR THESE GOALS THROUGH A SEQUENCE OF CALCULATION ...

  2. A Proposal to Develop an Automatic, Microfabricated Polymer Bilayer Air-Fluid Sampling Inlet

    SBC: Bomec, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    A critical component of a biochemical sensor system for detection and analysis of airborne pathogens are mechanisms for automated acquisition and transport of an air sample from the sensor inlet to the analysis chamber. While considerable capability already exists for sampling and handling of macroscopic volumes of gas, formidable technological challenges needed to be overcome before microfabrica ...

  3. Ion Propulsion for MEMS Flight Vehicles (rev 7-1)

    SBC: Daedalus Research Inc.            Topic: N/A

    A novel approach to the propulsion of very small, micro air vehicles is proposed in which electrostatic forces acting between an ion gas cloud and an appropriate anode are harnessed for thrust or lift. A means is proposed for the generation and maintenance of the ion gas from ambient air and for the regulation of the propulsor. Preliminary study indicates the new concept is valid only for air v ...

  4. Four-Quadrant Resonant Drive with Ports for Other Electrical Equipment

    SBC: Electronic Power            Topic: N/A

    A new quasi-resonant converter, called the unipolar series resonant converter ("USRC"), will be adapted as a four-quadrant drive for electric vehicles ("EVs"). With zero current and voltage switching, it will high modulation frequency (over 30 khz), thus driving a motor silently and efficiently throughout the speed range. The USRC produces any waveform required by any type of EV motor. It produces ...

  5. Integrating Decision-Theoretic Design Rationale into Design Team Workflow

    SBC: Prevision Inc            Topic: N/A

    Software design, development, and maintenance constitute a complex and time-intensive process. Early design decisions can have a crucial impact on both quality and cost. Design rationale tools have been shown to be effective in supporting this process, but are infrequently used due to their interference with normal design team workflow. The rapid growth of new network and web-mediated workstyle ...

  6. Improved Reference Sources for Low-Bit Error Rate Communication In Digital Wireless and Fiber Optic Systems

    SBC: Redpoint Microwave, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    A fundamental component responsible for low bit error rate (BER) is the phase jitter of the frequency reference source, regardless if a network is wireless or fiber optic in nature. In the case of wireless the frequency reference source is typically a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), and in the fiber optic case it is a clock. In order to maximize the full benefit of spread spectrum technique ...

  7. A New Generation Virtual Reality Individual Portal

    SBC: STERLING RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    We propose to build an energy extractive Individual Portal (I-Port) to the virtual world enabling the user to traverse a large virtual workspace in a very small real space. Using a commercial exercise treadmill, this device will improve virtual training, health maintenance and evaluation, and have a large market for education, recreation, and adversarial gaming. A motion capture, energy extracti ...

  8. High Conductivity, Low-Cost Aluminum Composite for Thermal Management

    SBC: Technical research Associates, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Among composite materials, aluminum/graphite and copper/graphite composites are potentially leading materials for use in high-performance electronic systems. The use of aluminum matrix (Al/Gr) composites for packaging material, however, have been severely limited because of the raw material and fabrication costs of the composite. In order to produce an inexpensive packaging material that exhibit ...
