Scope & Requirements
AMENDMENT 1 TO LOCK-IN AMPLIFIER: 1333ND26QNB030183
Vendor Question:
Should we include the UHF-MF Multi-frequency Option? The base UHFLI can demodulate 8 harmonics as requested on the notice, but only 4 of one of the two reference frequency. The UHF-MF option allows 8 harmonics of a single reference frequency or combinations of the two reference frequencies.
NIST Response:
The UHF-MF option is what we require technically, and what should be included in the quote. 8 harmonics are from a single reference signal. Yes, that is why the option UHF-MF is required. See updated Statement of Work for more details.
Response time has been extended from May 5, 2026 to May 8, 2026.
