           4 3/4% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTE DUE NOVEMBER 15, 2007

1.   Interest

         Skyworks Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY" which
term shall include any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter
referred to), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security
at the rate of 4.75% per annum. The Company shall pay interest semiannually on
May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing May 15, 2003; provided, however,
that such interest may be increased by any Additional Interest accruing from
time to time on the principal amount of this Security as provided in the
Registration Rights Agreement. Any reference herein to interest accrued or
payable as of any date shall include any Additional Interest accrued or payable
on such date as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement. Interest on the
Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been
paid or, if no interest has been paid, from November 12, 2002; provided,
however, that if there is not an existing Default in the payment of interest and
if this Security is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face
hereof and the next succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from
such interest payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.

2.   Method of Payment

         The Company shall pay interest on this Security (except defaulted
interest) to the person who is the Holder of this Security at the close of
business on May 1 or November 1, as the case may be, next preceding the related
interest payment date. The Holder must surrender this Security to a Paying Agent
to collect payment of principal. The Company will pay principal and interest in
money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts. The Company may, however, pay principal and
interest in respect of any Certificated Security by check or wire payable in
such money; provided, however, that a Holder with an aggregate principal amount
in excess of $2,000,000 will be paid by wire transfer in immediately available
funds at the election of such Holder. The Company may mail an interest check to
the Holder's registered address. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as this
Security is registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, all payments
hereon shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
account of the Depositary or its nominee.
<PAGE>
3.   Paying Agent, Registrar and Conversion Agent

         Initially, State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "TRUSTEE," which
term shall include any successor trustee under the Indenture hereinafter
referred to) will act as Paying Agent, Registrar and Conversion Agent. The
Company may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or Conversion Agent without
notice to the Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may, subject to
certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, act as Paying Agent or
Registrar.

4.   Indenture, Limitations

         This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the
Company designated as its 4 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due November 15,
2007 (the "SECURITIES") issued under an Indenture dated as of November 12, 2002
(together with any supplemental indentures thereto, the "INDENTURE"), among
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (the "COMPANY"), and the Trustee. Capitalized terms
herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The
terms of this Security include those stated in the Indenture and those required
by or made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, as amended, as in effect on the date of the Indenture. This Security is
subject to all such terms, and the Holder of this Security is referred to the
Indenture and said Act for a statement of them. The Securities are subordinated
unsecured obligations of the Company limited to $230,000,000 aggregate principal
amount. The Indenture does not limit other debt of the Company, secured or
unsecured, including Senior Indebtedness.

5.   Optional Redemption

         The Company shall not have the option to redeem the Securities pursuant
to this Section 5 prior to November 20, 2005. Thereafter, the Company shall have
the option to redeem any portion of the Securities (an "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION")
upon giving notice as set forth in Section 6. The Optional Redemption Prices
(expressed as percentages of the principal amount) are as follows for Securities
redeemed during the periods set forth below:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Period                                                                                   Redemption
------                                                                                   ----------
                                                                                            Price
                                                                                            -----
<S>                                                                                      <C>
Beginning on November 20, 2005 and ending on November 14, 2006                           101.1875%

Beginning on November 15, 2006 and thereafter                                            100.0000%
</TABLE>

in each case together with accrued interest up to but not including the date of
redemption (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE"), provided that if the Optional
Redemption Date falls after an interest payment record date and on or before an
interest payment date, then the interest payment will be payable to the Holders
in whose names the Securities are
<PAGE>
registered at the close of business on the relevant record date for payment of
such interest.

6.   Notice of Redemption

         Notice of redemption will be mailed or delivered at least 20 days but
not more than 60 days before the Optional Redemption Date to each Holder of
Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. Securities in denominations
larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part, but only in whole multiples of
$1,000. On and after the Optional Redemption Date, subject to the deposit with
the Paying Agent of funds sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price plus
accrued interest, if any, accrued to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption
Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Securities or portions of them called
for redemption.

7.   Purchase of Securities at Option of Holder Upon a Change in Control

         At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and conditions of
the Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase all or any part
specified by the Holder (so long as the principal amount of such part is $1,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Securities held by
such Holder on the date that is no less than 30 days and not more than 60 days
after notice of the occurrence of a Change in Control is given as provided in
Section 4.07, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof
together with accrued interest up to, but excluding, the Change in Control
Purchase Date. The Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Change in Control
Purchase Notice (in whole or in a portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) at any time prior to the close of business
on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date by
delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with
the terms of the Indenture.

8.   Conversion

         A Holder of a Security may convert the principal amount of such
Security (or any portion thereof equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple of
$1,000 in excess thereof) into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the
close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding November 15, 2007;
provided, however, that if the Security is called for redemption or subject to
purchase upon a Change in Control, the conversion right will terminate at the
close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Optional
Redemption Date or the Change in Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, for
such Security or such earlier date as the Holder presents such Security for
redemption or purchase (unless the Company shall default
<PAGE>
in making the redemption payment or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the
case may be, when due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the
close of business on the date such default is cured and such Security is
redeemed or purchased). The initial Conversion Price is $9.0505 per share,
subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Security is determined by dividing
the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof converted by the
Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date. No fractional shares will be
issued upon conversion; in lieu thereof, an amount will be paid in cash based
upon the Closing Price (as defined in the Indenture) of the Common Stock on the
Trading Day immediately prior to the Conversion Date. To convert a Security, a
Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the conversion notice set forth below
and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to a
Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if
required by a Registrar or a Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any transfer or
similar tax, if required. Securities so surrendered for conversion (in whole or
in part) during the period from the close of business on any regular record date
to the opening of business on the next succeeding interest payment date
(excluding Securities or portions thereof which are either (i) called for
redemption or (ii) subject to purchase following a Change in Control, in either
case, on a date during the period beginning at the close of business on a
regular record date and ending at the opening of business on the first Business
Day after the next succeeding interest payment date, or if such interest payment
date is not a Business Day, the second such Business Day) shall also be
accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to
the interest payable on such interest payment date on the principal amount of
such Security then being converted, and such interest shall be payable to such
registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of such Security, subject to
the provisions of this Indenture relating to the payment of defaulted interest
by the Company. If the Company defaults in the payment of interest payable on
such interest payment date, the Company shall promptly repay such funds to such
Holder. A Holder may convert a portion of a Security equal to $1,000 or any
integral multiple thereof. A Security in respect of which a Holder had delivered
a Change in Control Purchase Notice exercising the option of such Holder to
require the Company to purchase such Security may be converted only if the
Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture.

9.   Conversion Arrangement on Call for Redemption

         Any Securities called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion
before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Optional Redemption Date, may be deemed to be purchased from the
<PAGE>
Holders of such Securities at an amount not less than the Optional Redemption
Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to, but not including, the
Optional Redemption Date, by one or more investment bankers or other purchasers
who may agree with the Company to purchase such Securities from the Holders, to
convert them into Common Stock of the Company and to make payment for such
Securities to the Paying Agent in trust for such Holders.

10.  Subordination

         The indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is, to the extent and in
the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment
to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company. Any
Holder by accepting this Security agrees to and shall be bound by such
subordination provisions and authorizes the Trustee to give them effect. In
addition to all other rights of Senior Indebtedness described in the Indenture,
the Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior Indebtedness and entitled to
the benefits of the subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment,
modification or waiver of any terms of any instrument relating to the Senior
Indebtedness or any extension or renewal of the Senior Indebtedness.

11.  Denominations, Transfer, Exchange

         The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations
of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may register the transfer
of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may
require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and
transfer documents and to pay any taxes or other governmental charges that may
be imposed in relation thereto by law or permitted by the Indenture.

12.  Persons Deemed Owners

         The Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of it for all
purposes.

13.  Unclaimed Money

         If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for
two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at
its written request. After that, Holders entitled to money must look to the
Company for payment.

14.  Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

         Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be
amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority
in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and an existing
<PAGE>
Default or Event of Default and its consequence or compliance with any provision
of the Indenture or the Securities may be waived in a particular instance with
the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities
then outstanding. Without the consent of or notice to any Holder, the Company
and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to,
among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or make any
other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

15.  Successor Corporation

         When a successor corporation assumes all the obligations of its
predecessor under the Securities and the Indenture in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the Indenture, the predecessor corporation will (except in
certain circumstances specified in the Indenture) be released from those
obligations.

16.  Defaults and Remedies

         Under the Indenture, an Event of Default includes: (1) the Company
defaults in any payment of interest on any Security when the same becomes due
and payable, whether or not such payment shall be prohibited by Article 11, and
such default continues for a period of 30 days; (2) the Company (i) defaults in
the payment of the principal of any Security when the same becomes due and
payable at its Stated Maturity, upon redemption, upon declaration or otherwise,
whether or not such payment shall be prohibited by Article 11 or (ii) fails to
redeem or purchase Securities when required pursuant to this Indenture or the
Securities, whether or not such redemption or purchase shall be prohibited by
Article 11; (3) the Company fails to provide notice of a Change in Control in
accordance with Section 4.07; (4) the Company fails to comply with its
obligations under Section 6.01; (5) the Company fails to comply with any of its
agreements in the Securities or this Indenture (other than those referred to in
clauses (1) through (4) above) and such failure continues for 60 days after the
notice specified below; or (6) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of
any Bankruptcy Law: (A) commences a voluntary case; (B) consents to the entry of
an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; (C) consents to the
appointment of a Custodian of it or for a substantial part of its property; or
(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (7) a court of
competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:
(A) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case; (B) appoints a
Custodian of the Company or for any substantial part of its property; or (C)
orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company; and the order or decree
remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days (together with Clause (6), the

<PAGE>
provisions"); (8) Indebtedness of the Company is not paid within 15 days of any
applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders
thereof because of a default and the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or
accelerated exceeds $20.0 million (the "cross acceleration provision").

         If an Event of Default (other than an event of default as described in
clauses (6)and (7) with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the
Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities
then outstanding may declare all unpaid principal to the date of acceleration on
the Securities then outstanding to be due and payable immediately, all as and to
the extent provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default occurs as a result
of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or
as described in clauses (6) and (7) herein, unpaid principal of the Securities
then outstanding shall become due and payable immediately without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, all as and to
the extent provided in the Indenture. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or
the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require
indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities.
Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust
or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default
(except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that
withholding notice is in their interests. The Company is required to file
periodic reports with the Trustee as to the absence of Default.

         State Street Bank and Trust Company, the Trustee under the Indenture,
in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from
and perform services for the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and may
otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, as if it were
not the Trustee.

18.  No Recourse Against Others

         A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company
shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the
Securities or the Indenture nor for any claim based on, in respect of or by
reason of such obligations or their creation. The Holder of this Security by
accepting this Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and
release are part of the consideration for the issuance of this Security.

            CERTIFICATE TO BE DELIVERED UPON EXCHANGE OR REGISTRATION

                 OF TRANSFER OF TRANSFER RESTRICTED SECURITIES

Re:  4 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Securities Due November 15, 2007 (the
     "SECURITIES") of Skyworks Solutions, Inc.

         This certificate relates to $______________ principal amount of
Securities owned in (check applicable box)

         [] book-entry or [] definitive form by ___________ (the "TRANSFEROR").

         The Transferor has requested a Registrar or the Trustee to exchange or
register the transfer of such Securities.

         In connection with such request and in respect of each such Security,
the Transferor does hereby certify that the Transferor is familiar with transfer
restrictions relating to the Securities as provided in Section 2.08 of the
Indenture dated as of November 12, 2002, between Skyworks Solutions, Inc. and
State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "INDENTURE"), and the transfer of such
Security is being made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") (check applicable box)
or the transfer or exchange, as the case may be, of such Security does not
require registration under the Securities Act because (check applicable box):

     []  Such Security is being transferred pursuant to an effective
         registration statement under the Securities Act.

     []  Such Security is being transferred to the Company.

     []  Such Security is being transferred inside the United States to a person
         the Transferor reasonably believes is a "qualified institutional buyer"
         (as defined in Rule 144A or any successor provision thereto ("RULE
         144A") under the Securities Act) that is purchasing for its own account
         or for the account of a "qualified institutional buyer", in each case
         to whom notice has been given that the transfer is being made in
         reliance on such Rule 144A, and in each case in reliance on Rule 144A.

     []  Such Security is being transferred outside the United States in an
         offshore transaction within the meaning of Regulation S under the
         Securities Act in compliance with Rule 904 under the Securities Act.
<PAGE>
     []  Such Security is being transferred pursuant to and in compliance with
         an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities
         Act in accordance with Rule 144 (or any successor thereto) ("RULE 144")
         under the Securities Act.

     []  Such Security is being transferred pursuant to and in compliance with
         an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
         (other than an exemption referred to above) and as a result of which
         such Security will, upon such transfer, cease to be a "restricted
         security" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

         The Transferor acknowledges and agrees that, if the transferee will
hold any such Securities in the form of beneficial interests in a Global
Security which is a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, then such transfer can only be made pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act and such transferee must be a "qualified institutional
buyer" (as defined in Rule 144A).

Date:  _______________                       ______________________________
                                             (Insert Name of Transferor)
