Integration of Novel Component Anti-Counterfeit Protection with Ultra Low Noise Programmable DC Digital Power Supply for Mission Critical Applications

This Phase II program will focus on establishing XTG (pronounced X-Tag) as a more fully integrated cradle-to-grave, track-and-trace oversight standard for DOD Supply Chain Components.  The XTG track-and-trace technology provides authentication, traceability, and a higher standard of security with an information rich system able to record each tagged product’s full provenance production history.  These features, combined with anti-counterfeit/tamper resistant tags and labeling, will greatly assist in eliminating the use of counterfeit products and ensure the safety and effectiveness of defense systems.  This effort will fully demonstrate and implement the XTG technology into the Polaris (Lockheed Martin Division) Manufacturing Process, via their Solumina Manufacturing Control Package Software, for the production of QorTek Power Modules in support of Lockheed Martin’s MK48 MOD7 Torpedo Guidance and Control production contract.
