DARPA seeks affordable, low-power designer ICs - News

August 21, 2015
ARLINGTON, Virginia. Officials at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) are seeking proposals for the three-phase Circuit Realization At Faster Timescales (CRAFT) program which aims at spurring development of integrated circuits (ICs) that are not only low power, but can be fabricated much more affordably than custom ICs used today that often exceed $100 million in development costs. They want to develop new fast-track circuit-design methods, multiple sources for integrated circuit fabrication, and a technology repository.
