MAXIM REPORTS THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2007
REVENUES IN LINE WITH SAME QUARTER A YEAR AGO

SUNNYVALE, CA- April 25, 2007-Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., (NASDAQ:MXIM) reported net revenues of $475.8 million for its fiscal third quarter ending March 24, 2007, a 4.4% decrease from the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and a 0.5% decrease from the third quarter of fiscal 2006.

Maxim is not providing detailed GAAP and non-GAAP financials for the quarter ending March 24, 2007 due to the previously announced need to restate its historical financial statements for the fiscal years 2000 through 2005 and the related interim periods through March 25, 2006, to record additional non-cash, stock-based compensation expense related to past stock-option grants. Consequently, limited financial data is being presented at the present time.

Tunc Doluca, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Customer demand for Maxim's products appeared to stabilize during Q307 and we anticipate sequential growth in our upcoming quarter.  In addition, I am pleased to report that non-GAAP gross margins improved during the quarter. Looking forward, while gross margins will remain subject to normal fluctuations due to product mix changes and other factors, we believe that our gross margin management initiatives will produce relatively stable results during upcoming quarters."
