These devices power tools as simple as a light switch and as complex as a fighter jet or a smartphone.

They are also essential building blocks of the technologies that will shape our future, including artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and clean energy.
When the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 was signed into law, it provided the Department of Commerce with $50 billion for a suite of programs to strengthen and revitalize the U.S. position in semiconductor research, development, and manufacturing — while also investing in American workers.
CHIPS for America encompasses two offices responsible for implementing the law: The CHIPS Research and Development Office is investing $11 billion into developing a robust domestic R&D ecosystem, while the CHIPS Program Office is dedicating $39 billion to provide incentives for investment in facilities and equipment in the United States.
