ITEM  9.  REGULATION  FD  DISCLOSURE.

The Registrant ("TI") re-confirms its outlook for the second quarter of 2002 as
set forth in the Outlook section included in Item 2 of its Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2002. This re-confirmation is being made for purposes of
Regulation FD only and is not an indication or assessment of materiality, nor is
it intended to constitute a representation that the information is not otherwise
publicly available. The full text of that Outlook section is as follows:

OUTLOOK

Management believes that the company has turned the corner toward growth. TI's
shipments, affected by liquidation of excess inventory in 2001, are accelerating
as they catch up to the rate of our customers' shipments. Beyond that, growth
will be driven by improvements in our customers' end-equipment markets. The key
driver for improvement will be a stronger economy, which will lead to more
normal levels of global corporate spending. Increased spending will allow
corporations to start closing the gap between current productivity levels and
the higher efficiency that new technology enables. This combination of higher
corporate spending and improved productivity will have a self-reinforcing effect
throughout the economy.

For the second quarter, TI expects approximately the following:

                        GAAP*                    Pro Forma*
                        -----                    ----------

Revenue                 $2.0 billion             $2.0  billion

Operating margin        5%                       6%

Other income/interest   $15  million             $15 million

EPS                     $0.05                    $0.06

TI's outlook for revenue of about $2.0 billion in the second quarter, or 10
percent sequential growth, anticipates Semiconductor growth of about 8 percent,
Sensors & Controls growth of about 5 percent, and E&PS growth of about 50
percent reflecting retail stocking of educational calculators for the
back-to-school season.

For 2002, TI expects approximately the following:

                        GAAP*                    Pro  Forma*
                        -----                    ----------

R&D                     $1.6  billion            $1.5  billion

Capital expenditures    $800  million            $800  million

Depreciation            $1.6  billion            $1.6  billion

     *    Pro forma information is prepared by beginning with the
          Consolidated Statement of Operations, which is prepared in
          accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
          (GAAP), and then excluding amortization of acquisition-related

                                        2


          costs, purchased in-process R&D costs, special charges and gains,
          and income tax adjustments.  The effect of these amounts is
          partially offset, as appropriate, by their allocated profit
          sharing and income tax effects.  The company believes that pro
          forma information conveys useful trends and comparisons of the
          company's operations.

"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995: The statements contained in this report on Form 8-K are "forward-looking
statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established
by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements.

We urge you to carefully consider the following important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations of the company
or its management:

-    Market demand for semiconductors, particularly for digital  signal
     processors  and analog chips in key markets, such as telecommunications and
     computers;

-    TI's ability to develop, manufacture and market innovative products in a
     rapidly changing technological environment;

-    TI's ability to compete in products and prices in an intensely competitive
     industry;

-    TI's ability to maintain and enforce a strong intellectual property
     portfolio and obtain needed licenses from third parties;

 -    Timely completion and successful integration of announced acquisitions;

-    Economic, social and political conditions in the countries in which TI and
     its customers and suppliers operate, including security risks, possible
     disruptions in transportation networks and fluctuations in foreign currency
     exchange rates;

-    Losses or curtailments of purchases from key customers or the timing of
     customer inventory adjustments;

-    TI's ability to recruit and retain skilled personnel; and

-    Availability of raw materials and critical manufacturing equipment.

For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors, see the text under
the heading "Cautionary Statements Regarding Future Results of Operations" in
Item 1 of TI's most recent Form 10-K. The forward-looking statements included in
this Form 8-K are made only as of the date of this Form 8-K and TI undertakes no
obligation to update the forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events
or circumstances.
