FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

AnalogicTech Updates Outlook for First Quarter 2006

Sunnyvale, CA – April 18, 2006 – Advanced Analogic Technologies Incorporated (AnalogicTech) (Nasdaq: AATI), a developer of power management semiconductors for mobile consumer electronic devices, today provided an outlook for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006.

Based upon preliminary data, AnalogicTech expects to report revenue for the quarter ending March 31, 2006, of approximately $18.3 million, a new record high for the first quarter, up approximately 28% from the same quarter a year ago and down approximately 15% sequentially from the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2005. First quarter revenue was below management’s expectations primarily due to slightly lower than expected sales in China and Taiwan.

Un-audited gross profit margins in the first quarter are estimated by the Company to be approximately 61% of revenue, within the Company’s target range of 58% to 62%.

General and Administrative expenses were approximately $0.7 million higher than planned, primarily due to litigation costs and expenses incurred during the quarter associated with a contemplated secondary offering that stockholders and the Company determined not to pursue at this time. Given the foregoing, the Company estimates on a GAAP basis first quarter earnings of breakeven to $0.01 per share.

This outlook for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006, is an estimate. Results are subject to change based on a quarterly review by the Company’s independent financial auditors.
