Automatic Stock Option Grant Program

 Exhibit 10.2 
 AUTOMATIC STOCK OPTION GRANT PROGRAM 
 FOR 
 ELIGIBLE DIRECTORS UNDER THE 
 TRIQUINT SEMICONDUCTOR, INC. 2009 INCENTIVE PLAN 
 The following provisions set forth the terms of the Automatic Stock Option Grant Program
(the “Program”) for eligible directors of TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc. (the “Company”) under the Company’s 2009 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). In the event of any inconsistency between the terms
contained herein and in the Plan, the Plan shall govern. All capitalized terms that are not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Plan. 
 SECTION 1. ELIGIBILITY 
 Each member of the Board of Directors of the Company elected or appointed to the Board who is not otherwise an
employee or officer of the Company or any Related Company (an “Eligible Director”) shall be eligible to receive the grant of Options set forth in the Program, subject to the terms of the Program. 
 SECTION 2. OPTION GRANTS 
 2.1 Option Grant Types
and Timing of Grants 
 (a) Initial Option Grants. Upon an Eligible Director’s initial election or appointment to the Board
as an Eligible Director, he or she shall automatically be granted a Nonqualified Stock Option to purchase 33,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Initial Option Grant”); provided, however, that a director who is also an employee of the
Company or a Related Company but who subsequently ceases such employment status but remains a director shall not be eligible for an Initial Option Grant. 
 (b) Annual Option Grants 
 (i) Immediately after the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and at each
Annual Meeting of Stockholders thereafter, each Eligible Director who was an Eligible Director from the date of the previous Annual Meeting of Stockholders through the date of the current Annual Meeting of Stockholders shall automatically be granted
a Nonqualified Stock Option to purchase 17,500 shares of Common Stock (the “Annual Option Grant”). 
 (ii) Any
individual who initially becomes an Eligible Director at any time other than the date of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders shall automatically be granted a pro-rated Annual Option Grant to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock obtained by
multiplying 17,500 by a fraction, the numerator of which is the difference obtained by subtracting from twelve the number of whole calendar months that elapse from the date such person first becomes an Eligible Director through the date of the
Annual Meeting of Stockholders immediately following the date he or she first becomes an Eligible Director and the denominator of which is twelve. 

 (c) Annual Chairman Grants. Immediately after the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and at each
Annual Meeting of Stockholders thereafter, each Eligible Director who acts as the Chairman of the Board shall automatically be granted a Nonqualified Stock Option to purchase 2,500 shares of Common Stock, if immediately after such meeting, the
Eligible Director continues to serve as the Chairman of the Board (the “Annual Chairman Grant”). 
 2.2 Exercise Price of Options 

 Options shall be granted under the Program with a per share exercise price equal to 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date.

 2.3 Option Vesting 
 (a) Initial
Option Grants. Each Initial Option Grant shall each vest and become exercisable with respect to 28% of the Option one year after the Grant Date and as to an additional 2% of the Option each calendar month thereafter so that the Option is
fully vested and exercisable four years after the Grant Date, subject to the Participant remaining a director through each applicable vesting date. 
 (b) Annual Option Grants and Annual Chairman Grants. Each Annual Option Grant and Annual Chairman Grant shall vest and become exercisable with respect to 25% of the Option six months after the Grant Date and as to an additional 12.5%
of the Option each calendar quarter thereafter so that the Option is fully vested and exercisable two years after the Grant Date, subject to the Participant remaining a director through each applicable vesting date. 
 2.4 Term of Options 
 Initial Option Grants, Annual Option Grants and
Annual Chairman Grants shall have an Option Expiration Date of ten years from the Grant Date, subject to earlier termination as follows: 
 (a) General Rule. In the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than Disability, Retirement or death, the unvested portion of each Option granted to the Eligible Director under the Program
shall terminate immediately, and the vested portion of each Option may be exercised by the Participant only until the earlier of (i) 90 days after the date of such Termination of Service and (ii) the Option Expiration Date. 
 (b) Disability or Retirement. In the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service due to Disability or Retirement, the unvested portion of
each Option granted to the Eligible Director under the Program shall terminate immediately, and the vested portion of each Option may be exercised by the Participant until the Option Expiration Date. 
  

 -2- 

 (c) Death. In the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service due to death, the
unvested portion of each Option granted to the Eligible Director under the Program shall terminate immediately and the vested portion of each Option must be exercised on or before the earlier of (i) one year after the date of such termination
and (ii) the Option Expiration Date. If a Participant dies after a Termination of Service without Cause but while the Option is still exercisable, the vested portion of the Option may be exercised until the earlier of (x) one year after
the date of death and (y) the Option Expiration Date. 
 “Retirement,” for purposes of the Program, means a Participant’s
Termination of Service when any of the following are true: (i) the Participant is at least 55 years old and has completed at least seven years of service to the Company or a Related Company, including as an employee, consultant or director,
(ii) the Participant is at least 63 years old or (iii) the Participant’s age when added to the number of years of service to the Company or a Related Company, including as an employee, consultant or director, equals or exceeds 70.

 2.5 Payment of Exercise Price 
 Options granted under
the Program shall be exercised by giving notice to the Company (or a brokerage firm designated or approved by the Company) in such form as required by the Company, stating the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option is
being exercised, accompanied by payment in full for such Common Stock, which payment may be, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, in whole or in part: 
 (a) in cash or by check or wire transfer; 
 (b) by having the Company withhold shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued on exercise of the Option that have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate exercise price of the shares being purchased under the
Option; 
 (c) by tendering (either actually or by attestation) shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant that have an aggregate Fair
Market Value equal to the aggregate exercise price of the shares being purchased under the Option; or 
 (d) if and so long as the Common
Stock is registered under the Exchange Act, by delivery of a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker, to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of proceeds to pay the exercise price, all in
accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board. 
 SECTION 3. CHANGE IN CONTROL 
 In the event of a Change in Control, all Options granted under the Program shall become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the Change in Control and shall
terminate at the effective time of the Change in Control if not exercised prior to such time.

 SECTION 4. AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION 
 The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Program or any portion of it at any time and in such respects as it deems advisable. Except as provided in the Plan, any
such amendment, suspension or termination shall not, without the consent of the Participant, impair or diminish any rights of a Participant under an outstanding Option. 
 SECTION 5. EFFECTIVE DATE 
 The Program shall become effective on the Effective Date of the Plan. 
 Provisions of the Plan (including any amendments) that are not discussed above, to the extent applicable to Eligible Directors, shall continue to govern the terms and

 TRIQUINT SEMICONDUCTOR, INC. 
 Ralph Quinsey 
 Chief Executive Officer 

 TRIQUINT SEMICONDUCTOR, INC. 
 2009 INCENTIVE PLAN 
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
 Pursuant to your Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and this Stock Option Agreement (this “Agreement”),
TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc. has granted you an Option under its 2009 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock indicated in your Grant Notice (the “Shares”) at the exercise
price indicated in your Grant Notice. Capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan have the same definitions as in the Plan. The Plan shall control in the event there is any express conflict between the Plan and the Grant
Notice or this Agreement and with respect to such matters as are not expressly covered in this Agreement. 
 The details of the Option are as
follows: 
 1. Vesting and Exercisability. Subject to the limitations contained herein, the Option will vest and become exercisable as
provided in your Grant Notice, except that, unless otherwise provided in the Grant Notice or this Agreement, vesting will cease upon your Termination of Service and the unvested portion of the Option will terminate. 
 2. Securities Law Compliance. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, you may not exercise the Option unless the Shares issuable
upon exercise are registered under the Securities Act or, if such Shares are not then so registered, the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of
the Option must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the Option, and you may not exercise the Option if the Company determines that such exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

 3. Incentive Stock Option Qualification. If so designated in your Grant Notice, all or a portion of the Option is intended to
qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under federal income tax law, but the Company does not represent or guarantee that the Option qualifies as such. 
 If the Option has been designated as an Incentive Stock Option and the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the grant date) of the shares of Common Stock subject to the portions of the Option and all other
Incentive Stock Options you hold that first become exercisable during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, any excess portion will be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option, unless the Internal Revenue Service changes the rules and regulations
governing the $100,000 limit for Incentive Stock Options. A portion of the Option may be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option if certain events cause exercisability of the Option to accelerate. 
 4. Notice of Disqualifying Disposition. To the extent the Option has been designated as an Incentive Stock Option, to obtain certain tax benefits
afforded to Incentive 

 Stock Options, you must hold the Shares issued upon the exercise of the Option for two years after the Grant Date and one
year after the date of exercise. By accepting the Option, you agree to promptly notify the Company if you dispose of any of the Shares within one year from the date you exercise all or part of the Option or within two years from the Grant Date.

 5. Alternative Minimum Tax. You may be subject to the alternative minimum tax at the time of exercise of an Incentive Stock Option.

 6. Independent Tax Advice. You should obtain tax advice when exercising the Option and prior to the disposition of the Shares.

 7. Methods of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the vested portion of the Option may be exercised, in whole or
in part, at any time during the term of the Option by giving written notice of exercise to the Company on the form furnished by the Company for that purpose or, to the extent applicable, by written notice to a brokerage firm designated or approved
by the Company, specifying the number of Shares subject to the Option to be purchased, and accompanied by payment of the exercise price and any withholding taxes, or suitable arrangements for such payment satisfactory to the Company. 
 The exercise price for Shares to be purchased upon exercise of all or a portion of the Option shall be paid in any combination of the following:

 (a) in cash (by wire transfer or certified or bank check or such other instrument acceptable to the Company); 
 (b) if permitted by the Committee for Nonqualified Stock Options, having the Company withhold shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued on
exercise of the Option that have a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the Option equal to the exercise price of the Option; 
 (c)
if permitted by the Committee, by using shares of Common Stock you already own; 
 (d) to the extent permitted by applicable law, by
instructing a broker to deliver to the Company the total payment required, all in accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board; or 
 (e) by any other method permitted by the Committee. 
 8. Treatment Upon Termination of Employment or Service Relationship.
The unvested portion of the Option will terminate automatically and without further notice immediately upon your Termination of Service. You may exercise the vested portion of the Option as follows: 
 (a) General Rule. You must exercise the vested portion of the Option on or before the earlier of (i) three months after your Termination of
Service and (ii) the Option Expiration Date; 

 (b) Retirement or Disability. In the event of your Termination of Service due to Retirement or
Disability, you must exercise the vested portion of the Option on or before the Option Expiration Date; and 
 (c) Death. In the event
of your Termination of Service due to your death, the vested portion of the Option must be exercised on or before the earlier of (i) one year after your Termination of Service and (ii) the Option Expiration Date. If you die after your
Termination of Service but while the Option is still exercisable, the vested portion of the Option may be exercised until the earlier of (x) one year after the date of death and (y) the Option Expiration Date; and 
 The Option must be exercised within three months after termination of employment for reasons other than death or disability and one year after
termination of employment due to disability to qualify for the beneficial tax treatment afforded Incentive Stock Options. For purposes of the preceding, “disability” has the meaning attributed to that term for purposes of Section 422
of the Code. 
 It is your responsibility to be aware of the date the Option terminates. 
 9. Limited Transferability. During your lifetime only you can exercise the Option. The Option is not transferable except by will or by the
applicable laws of descent and distribution. The Plan provides for exercise of the Option by a beneficiary designated on a Company-approved form or the personal representative of your estate. Notwithstanding the foregoing and to the extent permitted
by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit you to assign or transfer the Option, subject to such terms and conditions as specified by the Committee. 
 10. Withholding Taxes. As a condition to the exercise of any portion of an Option, you must make such arrangements as the Company may
require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding obligations that may arise in connection with such exercise. 
 11. Option Not an Employment or Service Contract. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement will be deemed to constitute an employment contract or confer or be deemed to confer any right for you to continue in the employ of, or to
continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Related Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Related Company to terminate your employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause. 
 12. No Right to Damages. You will have no right to bring a claim or to receive damages if you are required to exercise the vested portion of the
Option within three months (one year in the case of death) of your Termination of Service or if any portion of the Option 

 is cancelled or expires unexercised. The loss of existing or potential profit in the Option will not constitute an
element of damages in the event of your Termination of Service for any reason even if the termination is in violation of an obligation of the Company or a Related Company to you. 
 13. Binding Effect. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company and be binding upon you and your heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
