(Reuters) - Chipmaker Analog Devices forecast second-quarter profit and revenue below estimates on Wednesday, as it grapples with uncertain demand from the industrial and automotive sectors.
The earnings follow a weak forecast from Texas Instruments last month and underscore the challenges facing the chip industry as businesses across sectors clear excess inventory that piled up with the pandemic-driven demand boom fading.
