Description
$52 billion in government investment. $500 billion in private commitments. 90% of the world's most advanced chips made in Taiwan — 110 miles from mainland China.
This is not a technology story. This is the foundation of every industry in America — and it is being rebuilt right now.
Fab Gap is a free educational app that explains America's semiconductor buildout in plain language. Built by a 15-year Intel physical design engineer with hands-on tapeout experience, it gives business leaders, policymakers, and executives the knowledge they need to understand and act on the largest industrial shift in a generation.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
Module 00 · Why This Matters
The real numbers. The real stakes. Why every business — not just technology companies — must understand the semiconductor shift happening right now.
Module 01 · The Stack
How a chip is physically built — from silicon wafer to finished die. Layer by layer, in plain language.
Module 02 · Process Nodes
From 180nm legacy chips to Intel 18A cutting edge. What the node numbers mean, what they cost, and why they matter for American competitiveness.
Module 03 · Physical Design & Verification
DRC, LVS, ERC, timing corners, waveform verification — the checklist between a chip design and working silicon.
Module 04 · Design Flow
Schematic to tapeout. The full journey a chip takes from idea to manufactured reality.
Module 05 · The Ecosystem
Who designs chips, who manufactures them, and why the gap between Taiwan and America defines global power.
Module 06 · CHIPS Act
Where the $52 billion goes, who received it, what is being built, and what the current challenges are.
Module 07 · AI & Advanced Packaging
Why AI accelerators are driving the push to advanced nodes — and why packaging now matters as much as the node itself.
Module 08 · Who Benefits & How
Construction, software, EDA, equipment, staffing, services, and certified small businesses — every industry has a CHIPS Act opportunity.
Module 09 · Industry Players
The full semiconductor value chain by tier — from TSMC and Intel to Cadence, Synopsys, and the emerging firms building the next layer of the ecosystem.
WHO THIS IS FOR
· Business leaders evaluating CHIPS Act opportunities
· Congressional staff and policy advisors
· C-suite executives navigating semiconductor supply chain decisions
· Government contracting officers and procurement professionals
· Investors and analysts covering the chip industry
· Entrepreneurs and small business owners seeking certified pathways
· Anyone who wants to understand the industry driving AI, defense, and the modern economy
BUILT BY
Fab Gap was built by the founder of Souletics Software — a 15-year Intel physical design engineer with hands-on experience in custom layout and cryptography chip tapeouts, an AI Cloud Solutions Architect at Intel's Office of the CTO, and a HUBZone-certified small business owner supporting America's domestic semiconductor buildout.
