Currently we rented a Clean Room at the Hong Kong Univeristy of Science and Technology. While working there, the contract finishes soon in June. Well, for the next rent period of one year, we need $ 50.000.
This will pay a years worth of cleanroom access at the HKUST.

We work there on the clean room nearly every day, processing the test wafer we've already designed last year.
When done, we will have got all the values we need for correct simulation models in Spice, and are able to use this values for developing other stuff. So we are just a few weeks away from producing triple 5s:

The Repository for the CMOS-555 you can follow on github under

https://github.com/libresilicon/CMOS-555




The excess money goes into creating the first free RISC-V implementation based the LibreSilicon process design kit, also which will be a kickstarter project. We have to finished the processing and getting the correct Spice Values, even for the Design of all Standard Cells we're need for the free RISC-V implementation.




When we cannot raise the full amount of money, we try to make a deal which takes into account offline times of NFF machines.
