Abstract
- The White House has announced a new funding opportunity aimed at promoting domestic semiconductor manufacturing and reducing reliance on foreign technology supply chains. The $285 million funding opportunity seeks proposals to establish and operate a CHIPS Manufacturing USA Institute, with a focus on digital twins for the semiconductor industry. Digital twins are virtual copies of physical technologies or systems that can provide insights and visualizations into how real-world technology functions. The funding opportunity aims to improve capacity planning, production optimization, facility upgrades, and real-time process adjustments in chip development and manufacturing. The proposals should integrate physical and digital assets, provide workforce training, and prioritize expanding education and industry participation for underrepresented communities and smaller businesses. The institute will be formed through a public-private partnership to foster collaboration and innovation in U.S. chip manufacturing. This initiative aligns with the Biden administration's efforts to strengthen the domestic semiconductor and computing chip manufacturing sector for national security and economic growth.
