Quarterly Results
Revenue for the second quarter was slightly lower than expected due to persistent demand weakness in computing and infrastructure end markets. Computing and Consumer (C&C) revenue grew 2.4% sequentially driven by new smartphone wins. Industrial and Infrastructure (I&I) revenue was down 3.1% sequentially. In the I&I business, strength in automotive and military/aerospace was offset by softness in infrastructure power and industrial analog. The breakdown by end market for the quarter was as follows:
