  ISSI ANNOUNCES REVIEW OF HISTORICAL STOCK OPTION PRACTICES AND DELAYS FILING
                   FORM 10-Q FOR THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2006

    SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Integrated Silicon
Solution, Inc. (Nasdaq: ISSI) today announced that it is conducting a review
of its historical practices in granting stock options.  ISSI has filed a Form
12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that it will be
unable to file a timely quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter
ended June 30, 2006 until this review has been completed.

    The Company's Board of Directors has appointed a committee of independent
directors to conduct this review. The committee plans to engage independent
legal counsel and accounting experts. The review will cover all option grants
since the Company's initial public offering in February 1995. The Company has
also advised its independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young
LLP, of its review.

    The Company expects to incur significant legal and professional fees this
quarter (ending September 30, 2006).

    In addition, two purported shareholder derivative actions concerning the
Company's stock option granting practices have been filed against certain of the
Company's current and former officers and directors in the U.S. District Court
for the Northern District of California. The Company is named as nominal
defendant.

possible conclusions or determinations to be made by the Board of Directors or
the independent committee are forward-looking statements and are subject to the
Safe Harbor provisions created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on current information and

may differ materially from those projected in such statements due to various
