                ALPHA STOCKHOLDERS APPROVE MERGER TO COMBINE
                     WITH CONEXANT'S WIRELESS BUSINESS


WOBURN, Mass., June 13, 2002 - Alpha Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: AHAA) today
announced that its stockholders have voted to approve the company's
proposed merger with Conexant Systems, Inc.'s (Nasdaq: CNXT) wireless
communications business. At a special meeting of stockholders held in
Bedford, Mass. this morning, Alpha received the approval of more than a
majority of the shares voted on the merger proposal.

         "Today's vote represents a strong expression of confidence in the
merger," said David Aldrich, chief executive officer of Alpha, who will
become chief executive officer of the combined company. "Having completed
this milestone, we look forward to rapidly satisfying the remaining closing
conditions, completing the merger, and getting on with the business of
providing the industry's highest level of semiconductor integration for our
customers' wireless handset and infrastructure platforms."

         As previously announced, Skyworks Solutions, Inc. has been
selected as the name for the new combined company. Skyworks will be the
industry's leading wireless semiconductor company focused on radio
frequency (RF) and complete semiconductor system solutions for mobile
communications. Completion of the merger is subject to satisfaction of
certain closing conditions, including receipt of a ruling by the Internal
Revenue Service that the spin-off of Conexant's wireless communications
business immediately prior to the merger will be tax-free to Conexant
stockholders. The merger is expected to close by the end of this month.
Following the closing, Skyworks shares will be traded on the Nasdaq Stock
Market under the ticker symbol SWKS.

Alpha Stockholders Approve Proposed Merger/2

         Under the terms of the proposed merger, Conexant shareowners will
receive 0.351 of a share in Skyworks for each Conexant share owned.
Conexant shareholders will also continue to hold shares in Conexant after
completion of the merger. Alpha stockholders will continue to hold their
existing Alpha shares as shares in Skyworks.
