Analog chip makers among best prospects-New York Tims

NEW YORK, Sept 26 (Reuters) - Linear Technology Corp. (NasdaqNM:LLTC -
news), Maxim Integrated Products (NasdaqNM:MXIM - news), Analog Devices Inc. (NYSE:ADI - news) and Burr-Brown Corp. (NasdaqNM:BBRC - news) are among the firms that specialize in analog chips that are the ''best prospects'' to benefit from the digital revolution, the New York Times said in its Sunday issue.

Producing analog chips is less capital intensive than making digital chips and lower capital outlays mean less of a drag on earnings.

The increasing use of analog-rich flat panel displays on desktops and the migration of users to portables from desktops bodes well for
continued growth of analog chip use.

The popularity of digital cellular phones and the increased use of fiber optic data and communications lines also suggests continued growth of analog chip use.

''We bought the (Analog Devices) stock much lower and have made a lot of money on it, but we believe it can go higher,'' Marc Klee, portfolio manager of the John Hancock Global Technology fund, told the paper. The fund is a major holder of the stock.
