"is Maxim a sister company of Linear Technology or something, rather than a competitor?"

I believe you should call them competitors. They do, however, look very similar financially don't they? You might use that to your advantage, but I think over the last few Q's MXIM has been valued slightly higher since their revenues and earnings moved ahead of LLTC. When it's not, you might try something similar to a straddle.
