Abstract
The Department of Defense (DoD) and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) face an increasingly difficult time supporting fielded systems due to a variety of factors. The generalized emulation microcircuit (GEM) program applies modern technology to provide an economical, rapid alternative to traditional redesign approaches. GEM provides form, fit, and function (FFF) replacement devices for unavailable microcircuits. GEM employs a modern BiCMOS gate array technology to produce these nonavailable devices. The GEM program utilizes specially designed gate arrays covering the range of specification requirements of the original device families. GEM parts are fabricated using modern, industry standard fabrication equipment employing statistical process control methods. The GEM design system employs commercial computer aided design, simulation, and verification tools in all phases of design.<>
