US Senate plans to increase investment in microelectronics

The Senate Defense Subcommittee announced a summary of defense spending priorities on June 26, in which the allocation of emerging technology has increased significantly.

The team recommended an additional $447 million for microelectronics. Specifically, the committee wanted to ensure that the Department of Defense had access to reliable microelectronics technology and was able to develop the manufacturing process for the next generation of microprocessor chips. To this end, the bill would The microelectronics R&D, testing and evaluation budget for the fiscal year 2019 increased from $169 million in the budget for the 2019 fiscal year to $616 million.

According to background information from the US Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency, smaller and smaller transistors will help achieve breakthroughs in the areas of 'machine learning, event identification data classification and protection against electromagnetic threats'. Current and future capabilities are critical, so technical officials say the key is that the Department of Defense believes that microelectronics is reliable and safe in the face of enemy attacks and damage. For this reason, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in 2017 9 Launched a five-year, up to $200 million 'e-revival plan' to promote advanced new materials, circuit design tools and system architecture research. The key focus of this initiative is through the Joint University Microelectronics Program (JUMP) Collaborate with top universities. The program invites top researchers to conduct research in cognitive computing, secure cellular infrastructure, and other projects to support projects such as autonomous vehicles and smart highways, as well as other technologies that require microelectronics support. The Additions Act proposed by the Defense Subcommittee has made the 'Electronic Recovery Program' an additional 30 million
