Dataquest says TI is No. 1 worldwide in 1997 analog revenues: Dataquest has officially announced TI is No. 1 worldwide in analog IC revenue for 1997, $304 million ahead of SGS-Thomson. TI is focused on analog as part of its Digital Signal Processing Solutions (DSPS) strategy. With its acquisition of Silicon Systems Inc., TI became the No. 1 supplier of mixed signal ICs in 1996, according to Dataquest. The analog IC market gained momentum in 1997 after modest growth in 1996. The remarkable growth of the wireless communications market, and the continuing demand for well-conditioned power were among the key factors contributing to this momentum. TI, Philips Semiconductors and National Semiconductor all grew their 1997 analog revenues by at least 30 percent, Dataquest said.
