                           Notes to Financial Statements

1.   Basis of Presentation
     ---------------------
     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed 
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal 
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial 
position as of December 31, 1997, results of operations for the three and nine 
month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, and cash flows for the nine 
month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.  Results for the periods are 
not necessarily indicative of fiscal year results.

     The condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 
California Micro Devices Corporation financial statements included with the 
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1997.

2.   Use of Estimates
     ----------------
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial 
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the 
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.   Inventories
     -----------
     The components of inventory consist of the following (amounts in 
thousands):

</TABLE>

4.   Litigation
     ----------
     Reference should  be made to the Company's filings with the SEC, including 
its reports on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended March 31, 1997, and its 
reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ending June 30, 1997 and September 30, 
1997.

     The Company is a party to or target of lawsuits, claims, investigations, 
and proceedings, including commercial and employment matters, which are being 
handled and defended in the ordinary course of business.  In the opinion of 
management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material 
adverse effect on the financial condition or overall trends in the results of 
operations of the Company.

The Company believes that, with regard to these matters and those previously 
reported, it has, to the best of its knowledge, made such adjustments to its
financial statements by means of reserves and expensing the costs thereof, 
that these matters will not have any additional adverse impact on the 
Company's financial condition.

5.   Net Income (loss) Per Share
     ---------------------------
     Net income per share for each period is computed using the weighted 
average number of common shares and dilutive common shares outstanding during 
the periods.  Net loss per share for each period is computed using the weighted 
average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

     In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of 
Financial Accounting Standards N0. 128, Earnings per Share.  Statement 128 
replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share 
with basic and diluted earnings per share.  Unlike primary earnings per share, 
basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants, 
and convertible securities.  Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the 
previously reported fully diluted earnings per share.  All earnings per share 
amounts for all periods have been presented, and where necessary, restated, in 
conformance with Statement 128 requirements.

ITEM 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          ---------------------------------------------------------------
          Results of Operations.
          ----------------------

Results of Operations

     Product sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1997, increased by 
$471,000, or 7%, compared to the quarter ended December 31, 1996, due primarily 
to increased sales into the computer and telecommunications segments.  Thin 
film products represented approximately 70% of product sales for the quarter 
ended December 31, 1997, compared to 54% of product sales for the year ago 
quarter. 

     Product sales for the nine months ended December 31, 1997, decreased by 
$500,000, or 2%, due to decreased sales into the workstation and 
telecommunications segments.  For the nine months ended December 31, 1997, thin 
film products represented 70% of sales, compared to 57% in the previous nine 
months period.

     Shipments to a contract manufacturer, Solectron, were approximately 11% of 
product sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1997.  Sales to Solectron have 
increased primarily due to sales of the Company's PAC 1284 parallel port 
filtration devices, which have been designed into boards Solectron manufactures 
for Intel.  The Company's sales of PAC 1284 devices to all customers were 13% 
of sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1997.  In addition to the PAC 1284 
device, the Company sold twenty (20) other different CMD parts to Solectron for 
products Solectron manufactures for companies other than Intel, such as Sun 
Microsystems, Silicon Graphics, and Cisco Systems.

     Technology related revenues, relating to research and development projects 
partially funded by Hitachi Metals, Ltd. (HML), decreased by $200,000 in the 
quarter ended December 31, 1997, compared to the year ago quarter, and 
decreased by $499,000 in the nine months ended December 31, 1997, compared to 
the year earlier period, due to lower overall R&D spending and reduced 
participation by HML in shared R&D projects.

     Gross margins as a percentage of net product sales were 22% for the 
quarter ended December 31, 1997, compared to 31% for the year earlier quarter, 
and were 28% for the nine months ended December 31, 1997, compared to 34% for 
the nine months ended December 31, 1996.  The decrease in gross margin for both 
the quarter and nine month periods was due to both a change in product sales 
mix, reflecting increased mix of lower margin high volume standard products and 
a lower mix of higher margin, low volume custom products, and price reductions 
due to general pricing pressure in the passive and semiconductor industries.

     Research and development expenditures decreased by $267,000, for the 
quarter ended December 31, 1997, compared to the prior year quarter, and by 
$889,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1997, compared to the year 
earlier period.  The decline in R&D was related to decreased materials cost 
which offset an increase in R&D payroll and headcount.  In the year earlier 
periods, more of the Company's R&D programs were focused on new base 
technologies.  As a result materials costs were higher during fiscal 1997 than 
in fiscal 1998.  During fiscal 1998, increased product development resources 
have resulted in an increase in payroll compared to fiscal 1997.  

     Selling, marketing and administrative costs were approximately 25% of 
sales for the three and the nine months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.  
S,M&A increased $108,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1997, compared to 
the year earlier period and decreased $55,000 for the nine months ended 
December 31, 1997, compared to the year earlier period.  Within S,M&A, 
administrative costs are lower than a year ago, while selling and marketing 
costs are higher.  The Company is keeping tight control of general expenses, 
but is continuing to make selective investments in people and materials to 
expand its marketing and sales activities.

     As a result of the factors discussed above, operating income (loss) for 
the three and nine months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, was ($743,000) and 
($989,000), respectively, compared with ($156,000) and $50,000, respectively, 
in the year earlier periods. 

     Other (income)/expense decreased for the three and nine months ended 
December 31, 1996, due to reduced interest income related to reduced short-term 
investments and because the year earlier periods included a one-time gain of 
$185,000 from the receipt of the Company's remaining interest in Cell Access.

<PAGE>

     No income taxes were accrued for the three and nine months ended December 
31, 1997 and 1996, due to the availability of tax loss carryforwards.

     The weighted average shares outstanding decreased to 9,881,000 shares for 
the three months ended December 31, 1997, and decreased to 9,824,000 million 
shares for the nine months period.  This compares to the 10,333,000 shares and 
10,400,000 shares in the year earlier periods.  The reduction of shares during 
the current periods was due to the impact the reduced number of shares required 
for the settlement of shareholder class action lawsuits after December 16, 
1996.  This impact was partially offset by the addition of 193,382 shares of 
common stock issued through the exercise of stock options and the employee 
stock purchase plan during the nine months ended December 31, 1997.

     Earnings (loss) per share were $(0.09) and $(0.14) for the three months 
and nine months ended December 31, 1997, compared to $0.01 and $0.05 for the 
year earlier periods, respectively.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     In the nine months period ended December 31, 1997, the Company's cash and 
short term securities and investments decreased by $1.5 million from $6.8 
million to $5.4 million.  The net loss of $1.4 million for the period includes 
non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization totaling $2.1 million.  
Capital expenditures for the period totaled $1.1 million.

     Inventories increased by $0.6 million, or 7%, from March 31, 1997, due to 
increased work-in-process inventories, partially offset by decreases in raw 
materials and finished goods.  The increase in work-in-process reflects 
increase in die bank inventory to improve customer response times.

     Accounts receivable increased by $.4 million primarily due to increased 
sales.  Gross days sales outstanding, computed on quarterly sales, were 55 days 
at December 31, 1997, compared to 54 days at March 31, 1997.

     Prepaid expenses and other assets increased by $0.4 million primarily due 
to an increase in unsold stock from the employee stock purchase plan and in 
amounts due from HML related to joint R&D projects.

     Trade accounts payable and other accrued liabilities decreased $0.2 
million primarily due to payment of previously accrued legal fees and reduction 
of advances from HML related to joint R&D projects.

     The Company has a Line of Credit with a bank expiring July 31, 1998, which 
allows borrowing up to $3,000,000, at prime, with no collateral required.  The 
terms of the Line of Credit require the Company to pay a commitment fee equal 
to one-quarter percent (1/4%) per annum on the average daily unused amount of 
the Line of Credit.  In addition, the Company is required to meet certain 
financial covenants during the term of the agreement.  Due to the loss for the 
nine months ended December 31, 1997, the Company is not in compliance with one 
of these covenants.  However, the Company foresees no need to borrow against 
this line, and since its inception in 1995, there have been no borrowings 
against this Line of Credit.


Cautionary Statement

     Statements included herein which are not historical facts are forward 
looking statements.  Such forward looking statements are made pursuant to the 
safe harbor provisions of the Private/Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. 
The forward looking statements regarding revenues, orders and sales involve a 
number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to, demand for the 
Company's product, pricing pressures which could affect the Company's gross 
margin or the ability to consummate sales, intense competition within the 
industry, the  need for the Company to keep pace with technological 
developments and respond quickly to changes in customer needs, the Company's 
dependence on third party suppliers for components for its products and the 
Company's dependence upon intellectual property rights which, if not available 
to the Company, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.  These 
same factors, as well as others, such as the continuing litigation involving 
the Company, could also affect the liquidity needs of the Company.
