Ranked by disclosed equity funding and recent momentum, this directory covers 498 Analog and Mixed Signal ICs companies in the United States, tracking $30.5B in total disclosed capital across the sector. Two unicorns sit at the top of that stack. Marvell alone accounts for $3.0B of that funding, and SiFive and SiMa.ai follow at $366M and $330M respectively, which tells you something about where the big bets are landing.

The revenue picture is what I find more telling, honestly. Across 28 validated filers, combined revenue hits $17.3B, with a median around $201M and flat-to-negative growth at roughly -1% YoY. But flat medians can hide violent spread. Analog Devices pulled $3.2B at +30% YoY growth and booked $831M in net income, 32 times the sector median. Qorvo filed $3.7B in revenue. So who's really moving the needle? The outsized earners are. Monolithic Power Systems logged $193M in net income, still 7 times the sector median, even without the headline funding numbers. The funding rankings here give you entry-point context, but the revenue filings show you the actual earned weight of this industry.
