Page 7 of 7

Richard Shannon: Okay. Fair enough. A follow-up on the topic of DSP here in context and I think it’s been asked by a couple of people here earlier today about the goal of getting to a 20% share in this business over time. As you’ve gone through the qualifications and I think you’ve mentioned some still ongoing here for ramping later this year or next year. Are we on that track Kishore, your kind of your expectation of getting to that 20% share goal within a few years, feeling pretty good about that because that still think some things to go, maybe just kind of comment on how well that’s coming into play.

Kishore Seendripu: Well, yes. I mean we said, for the first time initial early stage revenues have begun now. And then we said there are new ramps in the second half. Those are the ones, pending the calls happening. If both were to play-out, then the numbers work-out and those ramps alone should get you into the ballpark in the three year window we talked about. So and — so getting to the 20% has got some noise around it in terms of sometimes it really is the end customer ramp slower rather than whether we get that share or not is our expectations. So if we hit our — this year’s numbers in the vicinity of the numbers that I spoke about I think that’s the reality that’s going to play out.

Richard Shannon: Okay. Fair enough. That’s all for me guys. Thank you.

Steven Litchfield: Great. Thanks, Richard.
