                       REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8

                                     PART II



               INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT



Item 3.  INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE


         There are  hereby  incorporated  by  reference  into this  Registration
Statement  and into  the  Prospectus  relating  to this  Registration  Statement
pursuant to Rule 428 the following  documents and information  heretofore  filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission:


         1. The  Registrant's  Annual  Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended December 28, 1996, filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").


         2. The  Registrant's  Quarterly  Report on Form  10-QSB  for the fiscal
quarter ended March 29, 1997, filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act.


         3. The Registrant's  Registration Statement on Form 8-A dated April 23,
1984,  relating to its Common Stock, as amended by  subsequently  filed Exchange
Act reports.


                  All  documents  filed by the  Registrant  pursuant to Sections
13(a),  13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date hereof, and prior
to the filing of a post-effective  amendment which indicates that all securities
offered  have been  sold or which  deregisters  all  securities  then  remaining
unsold,  shall be deemed to be incorporated  by reference  herein and to be part
hereof from the date of filing of such documents.


Item 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

                 Not Applicable.

Item 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

                  Not Applicable.


Item 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

                  Section 317 of the California  Corporations  Code authorizes a
court to award,  or a  corporation's  Board of Directors to grant,  indemnity to
directors   and   officers   in  terms   sufficiently   broad  to  permit   such
indemnification   under  certain   circumstances   for  liabilities   (including
reimbursement  for expenses  incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities  Act"). The Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws
of the Registrant  provide that the Registrant shall indemnify certain agents of
the Registrant against judgments,  fines, settlements and other expenses arising
from such person's  agency  relationship  with the Registrant  provided that the
standard of conduct set forth  therein is met. The effect of such  provisions is
to require that the  Registrant  provide  indemnification  to such agents to the
maximum extent permitted by the California  Corporations Code. Agents covered by
these  indemnification  provisions  include  current  and former  directors  and
officers  of the  Registrant  as well as persons who serve at the request of the
Registrant as directors, officers, employees or agents of another enterprise.

                  In addition,  the Registrant has entered into  indemnification
agreements  with  each  of  its  directors  and  officers.  The  indemnification
agreements  are  based  on the  provisions  of  Section  317  of the  California
Corporations  Code and  attempt to provide  the  directors  and  officers of the
Registrant  with the maximum  indemnification  allowed under  California law. In
certain instances, they may result in an expansion of the substantive protection
available  to such  individuals  under the  Articles  of  Incorporation  and the
Bylaws.


Item 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED

                  Not Applicable.

Item 9.           UNDERTAKINGS

 (a)      The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

          (1)              To file,  during any period in which  offers or sales
                           are being made,  a  post-effective  amendment to this
                           Registration   Statement   to  include  any  material
                           information  with respect to the plan of distribution
                           not   previously   disclosed   in  the   Registration
                           Statement or any material change to such  information
                           in the Registration Statement.

          (2)              That,  for the purpose of  determining  any liability
                           under the  Securities  Act, each such  post-effective
                           amendment  shall be deemed  to be a new  registration
                           statement relating to the securities offered therein,
                           and the  offering  of such  securities  at that  time
                           shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide  offering
                           thereof.

          (3)              To   remove   from   registration   by   means  of  a
                           post-effective  amendment any of the securities being
                           registered  which remain unsold at the termination of
                           the offering.

 (b)  The  undersigned  Registrant  hereby  undertakes  that,  for  purposes  of
determining  any  liability  under  the  Securities  Act,  each  filing  of  the
Registrant's  annual  report  pursuant to Section  13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that is  incorporated  by reference in the  registration  statement
shall be deemed to be a new  registration  statement  relating to the securities
offered  therein,  and the  offering  of such  securities  at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 (h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may  be  permitted  to  directors,  officers  and  controlling  persons  of  the
Registrant  pursuant to the  provisions  described  in Item 6 of Part II of this
Registration  Statement,  or otherwise,  the Registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange  Commission such  indemnification  is
against  public  policy as expressed in the  Securities  Act and is,  therefore,
unenforceable.  In the  event  that a claim  for  indemnification  against  such
liabilities  (other than the payment by the  Registrant of expenses  incurred or
paid by a  director,  officer or  controlling  person of the  Registrant  in the
successful  defense of any  action,  suit or  proceeding)  is  asserted  by such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as  expressed  in the  Securities  Act and will be  governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

         Re:      REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8


Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have  examined  (i) the  Registration  Statement  on Form  S-8  (the
"Registration Statement") to be filed by Hytek Microsystems,  Inc., a California
corporation  (the  "Company"  or  "you"),   with  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission on or about May 20, 1997 in connection  with the  registration  under
the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended  (the  "Act"),  of an  aggregate of an
additional  100,000  shares of your Common Stock,  no par value (the  "Shares"),
reserved  for  issuance  pursuant to the  Company's  1991 Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") and (ii) the Prospectus  dated May 20, 1997 that relates to the Plan and
to such Registration  Statement pursuant to Rule 428(a)(1) promulgated under the
Act (the  "Prospectus").  As your legal  counsel,  we have  reviewed the actions
taken and proposed to be taken by you in  connection  with the proposed sale and
issuance of the Shares by the Company under the Plan.

         It is our opinion that,  upon completion of the actions being taken, or
contemplated  by us as your counsel to be taken, by you prior to the issuance of
the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement,  the Prospectus and the Plan,
the Shares will be legally and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

         We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement,  and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any subsequent amendment thereto.

                                         Very truly yours,
