                       INTEGRATED CIRCUIT SYSTEMS REPORT
              76% GAIN IN NET INCOME FOR THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 1998

Valley Forge, PA--April 21, 1998--Integrated Circuit Systems (NASDAQ:ICST) today
announced record consolidated income from continuing operations of $6.2 million,
or $0.48 per share, for the third fiscal quarter ended March 28, 1998, an
increase of 76% over the $3.5 million, or $0.30 per share (excluding a loss from
minority interest in equity investment and the in-process R&D charge related to
the acquisition of MicroClock), reported for the same period last fiscal year.
This represents a sequential gain of 7% over the net income of $0.45 per share
in the preceding second quarter of fiscal 1998.

Consolidated revenue for the third fiscal quarter was also a record $43.5
million, a gain of 73% from that reported for the same period last fiscal year,
reflecting a 56% increase in shipments of frequency timing products and a three-
fold improvement in networking revenue.  As compared to the preceding quarter,
consolidated revenue marginally increased.

Consolidated gross margin during the quarter was flat compared to the preceding
quarter and the same period a year ago reflecting product cost decline in
networking transceivers and continuing strong profitably in frequency timing
products.  Spending in R&D increased over 58% from a year ago as the Company
continued to expand vigorously in new product development.  Tight cost
management, however, maintained operating expenses at 24% of revenue (same as
the preceding quarter) and reduced from 27% a year ago (less one time charges).
Income before taxes and discontinued operations (excluding one time charges)
increased 81% compared to that of a year ago.  While this was flat sequentially,
because of reduced tax expense, per share income from continuing operations
improved 7% over that of the preceding quarter.  Compared to the same quarter a
year ago, per share income from continuing operations (excluding one time
charges) increased 60%.

"Our revenue and earnings performance during the nine month-period to date of
the current fiscal year has significantly exceeded our expectations.  We believe
this has reflected extremely strong acceptance and demand for our products among
our customers in the PC, networking and consumer electronics industry
worldwide", stated Henry Boreen, Chairman & CEO of the Company.

"At this time, our frequency timing products business continues to be strong.
On the other hand, we have recently experienced increased competition in the
market for single channel 10/100mb LAN transceivers, which has led to
cancellation of orders and severe price erosion for this product line.  While
recent market acceptance of several new frequency timing products for 
<PAGE>
 
multimedia and communication applications has been positive, we do not expect
these new frequency timing products to deliver sufficient revenue and earnings
in the fourth quarter to offset expected declines from networking transceivers."

                                      ###
