Details & project milestones

SDA prototype award to develop an APU2 compute-in-memory integrated circuit and evaluation board for space-based edge processing. A September 2025 amendment added assessment of radiation-hardened capability and increased the total award to $2.0 million.

Research and prototype award, not a production order or a demonstrated orbital deployment. The June 2023 announcement reported approximately $1.25 million potential milestone payments. The fiscal-2026 Form 10-K reports the amended $2.0 million total and completion of original milestones as of March 31, 2026, with certain amended milestones still outstanding. The recorded amount is the amended total, not an additional award or payments received.

Disclosed buyer: Space Development Agency.

Associated organization: Space Development Agency.

USD 2,000,000. Total prototype award after September 2025 amendment. Subject to milestone performance.

Technical specifications retain the source’s original units and evidence status. Hardware counts, compute rates and power are not equivalent; launched hardware does not establish demonstrated performance. Supplier counts include suppliers and hosts only, reflect current filters and cover this directory, not the entire market. “No record” means no disclosure captured; it does not mean the work is unawarded. Latest developments use source dates, not routine review or collection dates.
