Exhibit 10.1

Silicon Laboratories Inc.

2007 Bonus Plan

Overview

Silicon Laboratories Inc. (“Silicon Labs”) is committed to sharing its success with the people who make it possible — the Silicon Labs employees.  The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved this 2007 Bonus Plan (the “Plan”) to encourage participation by Silicon Labs employees in achieving company goals and to permit Silicon Labs employees to share in the rewards of our success.  The term of this Plan is for the 2007 fiscal year.

Eligible Employees

To be eligible to participate in the Plan, a person must be a regular full-time or part-time employee of Silicon Labs or one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and not a participant in any other bonus plan or cash incentive plan (including any sales commission plan) unless participation under the Plan is permitted under the terms of such other plan.

Bonus Calculation

Our business strategy has always been for Silicon Labs to be a growth company with strong profitability.  Accordingly, bonuses under the Plan will be largely dependent on Silicon Labs’ adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenue, rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent with 0.05% rounded up (the “Adjusted Operating Income %”).  Adjustments will be made from time to time at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee to include or exclude certain items.  An example of a potential adjustment would be the exclusion of an expense item such as stock compensation.  Bonuses may also be made dependent on individual or company performance criteria as established by the Compensation Committee (or its designee).  In addition to adjusted operating income, such alternative criteria may include, without limitation, revenue, revenue by product area(s), gross margin, gross margin by product area(s) or management-based objectives set by the Compensation Committee (or its designee) such as the introduction of new products.

Unless an eligible employee receives written notice from the CEO of Silicon Labs that different bonus criteria is applicable to such employee, such employee’s bonus will be determined on a quarterly basis as follows:

As illustrated by the chart above, the bonus increases by 0.06% for every 0.1% increase in Adjusted Operating Income % over the 10% minimum until reaching a maximum bonus payment of 15% at 30%

Adjusted Operating Income.  The bonus target is 12% at 25% Adjusted Operating Income.   The bonus shall be rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent with 0.05% rounded up.

Eligible Earnings

Bonuses are paid as a percentage of Eligible Earnings earned by such employee during such quarter.  Eligible Earnings include only an employee’s base salary or hourly wages.  Eligible Earnings do not include, among other things, disability pay, bonus payments from a previous bonus period or other payments that are taxable but not considered regular earnings.  For non-exempt employees, overtime pay would be considered Eligible Earnings.

Timing of Payments

Bonus checks will generally be issued within approximately one month after the end of each quarterly period.

General Provisions

· Bonuses are subject to all applicable taxes and other required deductions.

· The Plan will not be available to employees subject to the laws of any jurisdiction which prohibits any provisions of this Plan or in which tax or other business considerations make participation impracticable in the judgment of the Compensation Committee.
