Low-Cost Chip-Scale Atomic Clock (LC CSAC)

Abstract

LC CSAC was a FY 2022 new-start. LC CSAC will develop smaller scale devices that can be produced at a higher quantity and a lower price point. LC CSAC is a pre-Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) effort that will provide low-Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C) atomic clocks for GPS receivers and radios to operate smoothly through GPS-contested and GPS-denied environments. The JCTD will demonstrate LC CSAC integrated with representative U.S. Army systems operating under future threat environments. In FY 2022, LC CSAC verified that design simulations met cost and performance metrics.
