The 68-28 procedural vote sends the legislation back to the House of Representatives in a cumbersome process to ultimately launch a formal process known as a "conference" where lawmakers from both chambers will seek agreement on a compromise version.
A persistent industry-wide shortage of chips has disrupted production in the automotive and electronics industries, forcing some firms to scale back production, and there have been growing calls to decrease reliance on other countries for semiconductors.
The Senate first passed chips legislation in June that also authorized US$190 billion to strengthen US technology and research to compete with China, while the House passed its version in early February.
The bills take different approaches to addressing US competitiveness with China on a wide range of issues, as well on trade and some climate provisions.
Senate Commerce Committee chair Maria Cantwell said the vote was crucial to "get us to real negotiations"
