         ANALOG DEVICES REPORTS INCREASED REVENUE AND PROFITS FOR THIRD
                           QUARTER OF FISCAL YEAR 2003

Norwood, MA -- Analog Devices (NYSE: ADI), a global leader in high-performance
semiconductors for signal processing applications, today announced revenues of
$520.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2003, which ended August 2.
Revenues increased 17% from the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 4% from the
second quarter of fiscal 2003. The quarter's diluted earnings per share (EPS)
under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) increased to $0.21, up
from $0.08 in the same period a year ago and $0.19 in the previous quarter.

Gross margins increased sequentially to 55.1% of sales, up from 54.5% of sales
in the second quarter of fiscal 2003. Operating income increased to 19.2% of
sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2003, up from 17.6% in the previous
quarter. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 was $79 million, up
from $71 million in the previous quarter.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2003, cash and short-term investment balances
increased by $128 million after spending approximately $20 million on capital
equipment. Cash and short-term investment balances at the end of the third
quarter of fiscal 2003 totaled $3.2 billion. Accounts receivable days sales
outstanding was 45 days, compared to 44 days in the previous quarter. Days cost
of sales in inventory were 116 days, compared to 117 days in the previous
quarter.

"This quarter, revenue grew 4% sequentially while net income grew 11%
sequentially, nearly three times the revenue growth rate," said Jerald G.
Fishman, president and CEO. "Revenue grew quarter-to-quarter across a broad base
of applications within the computer, communications, consumer, and industrial
markets we serve."

Mr. Fishman continued, "The book-to-bill ratio was approximately one for the
third quarter with strong order rates during July, the last month of the
quarter."

"Analog product revenues grew 4% sequentially and 14% compared to the same
period last year," said Mr. Fishman. "In addition, our DSP product revenues for
the quarter accounted for approximately 22% of company revenues and grew 4%
sequentially, 28% compared to the same period last year."

Summarizing the revenues on a geographic basis, Mr. Fishman explained, "In the
third quarter, revenues grew in every region of the world with the strongest
growth from Japan, primarily driven by consumer electronics equipment. Sales in
Japan accounted for approximately 19% of revenue, the Americas 25%, Europe 20%,
and Southeast Asia 36%."

Regarding the near-term outlook, Mr. Fishman said, "We are encouraged by the
strong order rates since early July; therefore, we are planning for revenue
growth of 3% to 5% and GAAP diluted EPS of $0.22 to $0.23 for the fourth quarter
of fiscal 2003."
