Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - July 2, 2000

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited, condensed, consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month
period ended July 2, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.

         The condensed, consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1999 has been
derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include
all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

         The condensed, consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

</TABLE>

Second Quarter 2000  (Ended July 2, 2000) Compared to Second Quarter 1999
(Ended July 4, 1999)

         Net Sales. Net sales during the second quarter of 2000 increased 56% to
$47.5 million from $30.5 million in the second quarter of 1999. Sales of
integrated circuits for cellular and PCS applications increased 95% during the
second quarter of 2000 to $25.5 million from $13.0 million in the second quarter
of 1999. The increase in sales of integrated circuits for cellular and PCS
applications was primarily due to an increase in demand for our multi-band,
multi-mode power amplifier integrated circuits used in wireless telephone
handsets.

         Sales of integrated circuits for cable and broadcast applications
increased 61% during the second quarter of 2000 to $17.0 million from $10.6
million in the second quarter of 1999. The increase in sales of integrated
circuits for cable and broadcast applications during the second quarter of 2000
was primarily due to increases in demand for our integrated circuit reverse
amplifiers and converters used in digital set-top boxes, cable modems, and our
integrated circuit line amplifiers used as a repeater in cable television
distribution networks.

         Sales of integrated circuits for fiber optic telecommunications and
data communications ("fiber optic") applications decreased 27% during the second
quarter of 2000 to $5.0 million from $6.9 million in the second quarter of 1999.
The reduction in sales of integrated circuits for fiber optic applications was
primarily due to a reduction in demand for its transimpedence amplifiers used in
Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) medium range and long-haul fiber optic
telecommunications applications.

         Generally, selling prices for same product sales were lower during the
second quarter of 2000 compared to the second quarter of 1999.

<PAGE>


         Due to certain first half of 2000 inventory corrections and issues
related to component shortages experienced by our largest cellular and PCS
(wireless) customer, we believe we may experience a mix shift of our product
revenue during the second half of 2000. This revenue shift may result in a
reduction in our revenue growth (from the sequential quarterly revenue growth
rate experienced during the second quarter of 2000 from the first quarter of
2000 of 10.5%).

         Gross Margin. Gross margin during the second quarter of 2000 increased
to 51.3% from 37.0% in the second quarter of 1999. Gross margin during the
second quarter of 1999 included $2.7 million of accelerated depreciation expense
associated with the closing of the Company's four-inch wafer fabrication
facility. The accelerated depreciation expense was due to a reduction in the
useful lives of the fabrication facility equipment and leasehold improvements
with original lives ranging from five to twenty years that were reduced to a
life of nine months beginning October 1, 1998. The reduction in estimated useful
life followed our October 1998 decision to close our four-inch wafer fabrication
facility.

         Excluding the accelerated depreciation expense of $2.7 million, gross
margin during the second quarter of 1999 was 45.7%. The increase in gross margin
during the second quarter of 2000 to 51.3% compared to the second quarter of
1999, resulted from leveraging fixed costs over higher sales levels, as well as
manufacturing efficiencies and per unit material cost reductions which resulted
from the use of six-inch wafers during the second quarter of 2000, compared to
four-inch wafers used during the second quarter of 1999.

         Research and Development. Company sponsored research and development
expense increased 59% during the second quarter of 2000 to $10.1 million from
$6.4 million during the second quarter of 1999. The increase was primarily
attributable to: (1) increased research and development of integrated circuits
for cellular and PCS, CATV, and fiber optic applications, and (2) increased
research and development of new process technologies, particularly Indium
Gallium Phosphide Heterojunction Bi-polar Transistor (InGaP HBT) process
technology for integrated circuits used in cellular and PCS, and fiber optic
applications. As a percentage of sales, research and development expense
increased to 21.4% in the second quarter of 2000 from 20.9% in the second
quarter of 1999.

         The Company expects research and development expense to continue to
increase from the level incurred during the second quarter of 2000.

         Selling and Administrative. Selling and administrative expenses
increased 36% during the second quarter of 2000 to $6.6 million from $4.9
million in the second quarter of 1999. The increase in selling and
administrative expenses during the second quarter of 2000 was primarily due to
increased recruiting and relocation costs and an increase in professional fees.
As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 14.0%
in the second quarter of 2000 from 16.0% in the second quarter of 1999.

         Gain on Sale of Equipment. During the second quarter of 2000, the
Company sold equipment, which resulted in a gain on the sale of approximately
$0.3 million. Substantially all of the equipment was fully depreciated prior to
its sale.

         Interest Income, net. Interest income, net increased $2.1 million to
$2.6 million during the second quarter of 2000 from $0.5 million during the
second quarter of 1999 on substantially higher invested cash balances following
our secondary offering of common stock completed in November 1999.

         Provision For Litigation Settlement, Net. The Company recorded a
provision for litigation settlement of $6.9 million in the second quarter of
1999, as it reached an agreement in principle with the plaintiffs' counsel to
settle a consolidated class action lawsuit and a derivative lawsuit. The $6.9
million provision consisted of a payment of $11.8 million (offset by insurance
proceeds of $5.3 million) and $0.4 million of additional legal, settlement,
notification and court related fees. (See Part II. Other Information - Item 1.
Legal Proceedings - Shareholder Litigation for additional information on the
court-approved settlement of this litigation).

         Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes during the
second quarter of 2000 was recorded at an estimated annual effective tax rate of
37.0% of the income before income taxes.


Six Months 2000  (Ended July 2, 2000)  Compared to Six Months 1999
(Ended July 4, 1999)

         Net Sales. Net sales during the six month period ended July 2, 2000
increased 63% to $90.5 million from $55.6 million in the six month period ended
July 4, 1999. Sales of integrated circuits for cellular and PCS applications
increased 117% during the six month period ended July 2, 2000 to $48.9 million
from $22.5 million in the six month period ended July 4, 1999. The increase in
sales of integrated circuits for cellular and PCS applications was due to an
increase in demand for our multi-band, multi-mode power amplifier integrated
circuits used in wireless telephone handsets.

         Sales of integrated circuits for cable and broadcast applications
increased 57% during the six month period ended July 2, 2000 to $32.3 million
from $20.5 million in the six month period ended July 4, 1999. The increase in
sales of integrated circuits for cable and broadcast applications during the six
month period ended July 2, 2000 was due to increases in demand for the Company's
integrated circuit reverse amplifiers and converters used in digital set-top
boxes and cable modems, and the Company's integrated circuit line amplifiers
used as a repeater in hybrid cable television distribution networks.

         Sales of integrated circuits for fiber optic telecommunication and data
communication applications decreased 25% during the six month period ended July
2, 2000 to $9.3 million from $12.5 million in the six month period ended July 4,
1999 as demand for transimpedence amplifiers for Synchronous Optical Network
(SONET) medium and long-haul fiber optic telecommunications applications
decreased.

         Generally, selling prices for same product sales were lower during the
six month period ended July 2, 2000 compared to the six month period ended July
4, 1999.

         Gross Margin. Gross margin during the six month period ended July 2,
2000 increased to 50.3% from 35.0% in the six month period ended July 4, 1999.
Gross margin during the six month period ended July 4, 1999 included $5.3
million of accelerated depreciation expense associated with the closing of the
Company's four-inch wafer fabrication facility. The accelerated depreciation
expense was due to a reduction in the useful lives of the fabrication facility
equipment and leasehold improvements with original lives ranging from five to
twenty years that were reduced to a life of nine months beginning October 1,
1998. The reduction in estimated useful life followed our October 1998 decision
to close our four-inch wafer fabrication facility.

         Excluding the accelerated depreciation expense of $5.3 million, gross
margin during the six month period ended July 4, 1999 was 44.6%. The increase in
gross margin during the six month period ended July 2, 2000 to 50.3% compared to
the six month period ended July 4, 1999, resulted from leveraging fixed costs
over higher sales levels, as well as manufacturing efficiencies and per unit
material cost reductions which resulted from the use of six-inch wafers during
the six month period ended July 2, 2000, compared to four-inch wafers used
during the six month period ended July 4, 1999.

         Research and Development. Company sponsored research and development
expense increased 67% during the six month period ended July 2, 2000 to $20.0
million from $12.0 million in the six month period ended July 4, 1999. The
increase was primarily attributable to: (1) increased research and development
of integrated circuits for cellular and PCS, CATV, and fiber optic applications,
and (2) increased research and development of new process technologies,
particularly Indium Gallium Phosphide Heterojunction Bi-polar Transistor (InGaP
HBT) process technology for integrated circuits used in cellular and PCS, and
fiber optic applications. As a percent of sales, company funded research and
development increased to 22.1% during the six month period ended July 2, 2000
from 21.6% in the six month period ended July 4, 1999.

         Selling and Administrative. Selling and administrative expenses
increased 46% during the six month period ended July 2, 2000 to $12.8 million
from $8.7 million in the six month period ended July 4, 1999. The increase was
due in part to increased relocation and recruiting costs, payroll taxes
associated with employee stock options exercised, professional fees, and
increased sales commission expense. As a percentage of sales, selling and
administrative expenses decreased to 14.0% during the six month period ended
July 2, 2000 from 15.7% in the six month period ended July 4, 1999.

         Interest Income, net. Interest income, net increased $4.1 million
during the six month period ended July 2, 2000 to $5.1 million from $1.0 million
in the six month period ended July 4, 1999 on substantially higher invested cash
balances following our secondary offering of common stock completed in November
1999.

         Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes during the
six month period ended July 2, 2000 was recorded at an estimated annual
effective tax rate of 37.0% of the income before income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of July 2, 2000, we had $131.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and
$40.3 million in marketable securities. We had $3.5 million outstanding under
our revolving bank credit facility as of the end of the second quarter of 2000.
We entered into an interest rate swap agreement in 1998, which effectively fixes
the interest rate on this portion of the credit facility at 7.09%. The swap
effectively changed the variable interest rate of this bank debt to a fixed rate
for which the present value of cash flows are approximately the same. As of July
2, 2000, we also had available $15.0 million under a credit facility. The credit
facility drawdown period expires on July 1, 2001. The outstanding bank debt and
credit facility are subject to certain financial covenants. Substantially all of
our assets are pledged as security for repayments of the outstanding bank debt
and borrowings, if any, under the credit facility.

     Operating activities, which included a payment of $6.4 million during the
period to settle a shareholder lawsuit, generated $13.4 million in cash during
the six month period ended July 2, 2000. Investing activities, which primarily
consisted of purchases of equipment of $24.1 million and net purchases of
marketable securities of $18.5 million, used $41.3 million of cash during the
six month period ended July 2, 2000. Financing activities, which primarily
consisted of proceeds received from employee stock options exercised, raised
$9.9 million during the six month period ended July 2, 2000.

         As previously planned and disclosed, we ceased our wafer fabrication
operations in our four-inch wafer fabrication facility during the third quarter
of 1999. Fabrication facility dismantling and restoration activities began late
in the fourth quarter of 1999 and are expected to continue through the third
quarter of 2000. We plan to restore these areas as office space by the end of
the third quarter of 2000.

         As of July 2, 2000, we are committed to purchase approximately $15.0
million of equipment and furniture, and leasehold improvements during the second
half of 2000. Included in the $15.0 million of equipment and furniture, and
leasehold improvements are commitments associated with the expansion of our
six-inch wafer fabrication facility. The expansion, which is expected to cost
approximately $11.0 million, will approximately double our current production
capacity and is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of
2000.

         We believe that our sources of capital, including internally generated
funds and $15.0 million available under our existing credit facility, will be
adequate to satisfy anticipated capital needs for the next twelve months and
beyond. Our anticipated capital needs may include acquisitions of complimentary
businesses or technologies, or investments in other companies. However, we may
elect to finance all or part of our future capital requirements through
additional equity or debt financing. There can be no assurance that such
additional financing would be available on satisfactory terms.


Impact Of Recently Issued Accounting Standards


         In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which is required to be adopted
in years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Statement permits early adoption as
of the beginning of any fiscal quarter after its issuance. We expect to adopt
the new Statement effective January 1, 2001. The Statement will require us to
recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that
are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If a derivative is
a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the
derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged
asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other
comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The
ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be immediately
recognized in earnings. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this Statement
will have a significant effect on our results of operations or financial
position.


Risks and Uncertainties

         Except for historical information contained herein, this Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties,
including, but not limited to, order rescheduling or cancellation, changes in
customer's forecasts of product demand, timely product and process development,
individual product pricing pressure, variation in production yield, changes in
estimated product lives, difficulties in obtaining components and assembly
services needed for production of integrated circuits, change in economic
conditions of the various markets the Company serves, as well as the other risks
detailed from time to time in the Company's reports filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, including the report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999 and the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No.
333-83889). These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such
because the context of the statement will include words such as the Company
"believes", "anticipates", "expects", or words of similar import. Similarly,
statements that describe the Company's future plans, objectives, estimates or
goals are forward-looking statements. The cautionary statements made in this
Form 10-Q should be read as being applicable to all related forward-looking
statements wherever they appear in this Form 10-Q. Important factors that could
cause actual results and developments to be materially different from those
expressed or implied by such statements include those factors discussed herein.

Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk


         We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily from our credit
facility and our investments in certain available-for-sale securities. To date,
we have managed our exposure to changes in interest rates from our credit
facility by entering into interest rate swap agreements which allow us to
convert our debt from variable to fixed interest rates. We plan to continue to
reduce our exposure to changes in interest rates from our credit facility by
using interest rate derivative instruments. Our available-for-sale securities
consist of fixed income investments (U.S. Treasury and Agency securities and
short-term commercial paper). We continually monitor our exposure to changes in
interest rates from our available-for-sale securities. Accordingly, we believe
that the effects of changes in interest rates are limited and would not have a
material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. However, it
is possible that we are at risk if interest rates change in an unfavorable
direction. The magnitude of any gain or loss will be a function of the
difference between the fixed rate of the financial instrument and the market
rate and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially
affected.
