What is the mission of the California Defense Ready Electronics and Microdevices Superhub (CA DREAMS) university hub?

CA DREAMS, led by the University of Southern California Information Sciences Institute (USC/ISI), accelerates the development of onshore microelectronics hardware by uniting academic and industry institutions. As part of the Department of Defense’s Microelectronics Commons Program, CA DREAMS focuses on three key objectives: advancing RF technologies for rapid prototyping, enabling seamless lab-to-fab transitions, and training the next generation of engineers and technicians in cutting-edge RF and microelectronics.

MOSIS 2.0 functions at the core of CA DREAMS by connecting innovators to a vast network of nanofabrication and foundry services, breaking down barriers to innovation and empowering advancements in education, industry, and national security.
