CHIPS for America is part of President Biden and Vice President Harris’s economic plan to invest in America, stimulate private sector investment, create good-paying jobs, make more in the United States, and revitalize communities left behind. CHIPS for America’s proposed investments have delivered significant results, including unlocking more than $300 billion in public and private investment between now and the end of the decade -- far and away the most investment in new production in the history of the U.S. semiconductor industry. CHIPS for America includes the CHIPS Program Office, responsible for manufacturing incentives, and the CHIPS Research and Development Office, responsible for R&D programs, that both sit within the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) at the Department of Commerce.

"The truth of it is, AI will be the defining technology of our generation. You can't lead in AI if you don't lead in making leading-edge chips. Our work in implementing the CHIPS Act just got a whole lot more important." — U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo #AI #Semiconductor #Time100

Today, CHIPS for America announced the establishment of a new community of practice, the CHIPS Metrology Community. The Community will facilitate data and knowledge sharing across initiatives within the CHIPS Metrology seven Grand Challenges and help stakeholders inform the industry standards that are critical for enhancing U.S. economic and national security competitiveness. Metrology plays a key role in semiconductor manufacturing. As devices become more complex, smaller, and multi-layered, the ability to measure, monitor, predict, and ensure quality in manufacturing becomes much more difficult and uncertain. The CHIPS Metrology Program, one of the four CHIPS for America Research and Development programs, emphasizes measurements that are accurate, precise, and fit-for-purpose for the production of microelectronic materials, devices, circuits, and systems. The CHIPS Metrology Community will be the go-to destination for industry to work collaboratively on and develop solutions to metrology problems shared across industry. Join Dr. Marla Dowell, director, CHIPS Metrology Program, on August 29, 2024, at 3:00pm ET for a briefing on details of the Community. Webinar participants must register in advance: https://lnkd.in/gQQa73-V Learn more about the CHIPS Metrology Community: https://lnkd.in/egKXqVqB #ResearchAndDevelopment #Metrology #Semiconductor #Manufacturing
Today, the Biden-Harris Administration announced that the U.S. Department of Commerce and HP Inc. have signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms (PMT) to provide up to $50 million in proposed direct funding under the CHIPS and Science Act. The proposed funding would support the expansion and modernization of HP’s existing facility in Corvallis, Oregon, which is part of the company’s “lab-to-fab” ecosystem in the region that spans from research and development (“R&D”) activities to commercial manufacturing operations. President Biden and Vice President Harris championed the CHIPS and Science Act, a key component of the Investing in America agenda, to usher in a new era of semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, bringing with it a revitalized domestic supply chain, good-paying jobs, and investments in the industries of the future. Through this proposed investment, the Biden-Harris Administration would enhance U.S. technological leadership by driving innovation of groundbreaking semiconductor technologies that serve important end markets, notably including life sciences instrumentation and technology hardware used in artificial intelligence applications.

Today, the Biden-Harris Administration announced that the U.S. Department of Commerce and Texas Instruments (TI) have signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms (PMT) to provide up to $1.6 billion in proposed direct funding under the CHIPS and Science Act to strengthen domestic supply chain resilience, advance our national security, and bolster U.S. competitiveness in current-generation and mature-node semiconductor production. President Biden and Vice President Harris championed the CHIPS and Science Act, a key component of the Investing in America agenda, to usher in a new era of semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, bringing with it a revitalized domestic supply chain, good-paying jobs, and investments in the industries of the future. The proposed funding would support TI’s investment of more than $18 billion through the end of decade to construct three new state-of-the-art facilities, including two in Texas and one in Utah, and is estimated to create over 2,000 manufacturing jobs and thousands of construction jobs over time.

Today, the Biden-Harris Administration announced that the U.S. Department of Commerce and SK hynix have signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms (PMT) to provide up to $450 million in proposed federal incentives under the CHIPS and Science Act to establish a high-bandwidth-memory (HBM) advanced packaging fabrication and research and development (R&D) facility. President Biden signed the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act to usher in a new era of semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, bringing with it a revitalized domestic supply chain, good-paying jobs, and investments in the industries of the future. The proposed CHIPS investment builds upon SK hynix’s investment of approximately $3.87 billion in West Lafayette, Indiana to build a memory packaging plant for artificial intelligence (AI) products and an advanced packaging R&D facility, creating approximately 1,000 new good-paying jobs and filling a critical gap in the U.S. semiconductor supply chain.
