Introduction Market Data Compact

SILICON LABORATORIES - Forum for discussion of prospects. IPO by MSDW this week.

Silicon Laboratories, Inc. is a leader in the design and
development of proprietary, analog-intensive, mixed-signal
integrated circuits, or ICs, for the rapidly growing
communications industry. Mixed-signal ICs are electronic
components that are capable of processing both digital signals
and real-world analog signals, such as sound and radio waves.
Mixed-signal ICs are critical components of numerous
communications products, including cellular telephones, cable
and satellite set-top boxes, modems and fax machines. Our
IC solutions can dramatically reduce the cost, size and system
power requirements of these communications products. To
develop our business rapidly, we initially focused our efforts on
developing IC solutions for the personal computer modem
market. We are now applying our mixed-signal and
communications expertise to the development of innovative
IC solutions for other communications markets with high
growth potential, such as cellular telephones and network
access applications. Our significant customers include Intel,
Lucent, Motorola, PC-Tel, SmartLink and 3Com. Within the
semiconductor industry, we are known as a "fabless"
company, meaning that we do not fabricate the
semiconductors that we design and develop, but instead rely
on third parties to manufacture our products. We design our
solutions to be manufactured using standard complementary
metal oxide semiconductor, or CMOS, technology, which
involves less cost and complexity in the manufacturing
process than competing technologies. As a result, our IC
solutions can be reliably manufactured at a reduced cost and
in high volume at semiconductor foundries around the world.
