Executive VP & Chief Technical Officer



Subject: Employment Agreement



Dear Charlie:

The Board of Directors discussed in February and approved on 24 May 2000
entering into employment agreements with the executives of the Company. This
agreement is made and entered into effect as of the 25th day of July 2000, by
and between ANADIGICS, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), and
Charles Huang, an executive employee of the Corporation.

In order for the Corporation to attract and retain as executives and officers
the most capable persons available, the Corporation and executive employee do
hereby agree as follows:

1.    Employment with the Corporation is at-will and may be terminated at any
      time with or without cause or notice by the executive employee or the
      Corporation. No person is authorized to provide any employee with an
      employment contract or special arrangement concerning terms or conditions
      of employment unless the contract or arrangement is in writing and signed
      by the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

2.    In addition to the provisions set forth in this document, the executive
      employee's employment will be governed by the policies and procedures
      outlined in the Employee Handbook, as amended from time to time.

3.    In consideration of past and continuing service to the Corporation in the
      event of a "change-of-control" (as defined in Annex A hereto) which
      results in either the involuntary termination of your employment with the
      Corporation or voluntary resignation from the Corporation due to a
      reduction in responsibilities and duties associated with your position, or
      reduction in compensation (base salary plus bonus) without the prior
      express written consent of the executive. In either case within one year
      following such "change-of-control" the executive shall receive (a) up to
      12 months of base salary and bonus (at 100% of target) from the
      Corporation, the first six months payable in equal biweekly installments
      (bonus paid at regular scheduled intervals), plus up to an additional six
      months of base salary (paid bi-weekly) and bonus (paid at regular
      scheduled intervals) if unemployed; (b) payment of the annual bonus (at
      100% of target prorated for the number of complete months worked in the
      year), (c) continuation for one year from date of termination of all
      current medical, and dental insurance benefits or until coverage by a new
      employer, whichever occurs first, (d) executive outplacement services for
      up to six months, and (e) immediate vesting of all stock options
      previously or hereafter issued under the Corporation's 1997 Long Term
      Incentive and Share Award Plan for Employees and the 1995 Long Term
      Incentive and Share Award Plan for Officers, as the same may be amended
      from time to time, to the extent such stock options have not vested as of
      such date, which options shall continue to be exercisable, with respect to
      options granted prior to October 31, 1998 for 90 days, and for options
      granted subsequent to October 31, 1998, for twelve (12) months following
      the date of involuntary or voluntary termination as described above, but
      not beyond the original term of the option.
