據彭博社報道，知情人士說，英國芯片設計商Dialog Semiconductor Plc（其客戶包括蘋果公司）正在與瑞薩電子公司就潛在出售事宜進行高級談判，其潛在價值約為60億美元。

知情人士說，Dialog目前的市值為40億歐元（50億美元），正在與顧問合作，并可能很快與買家達成交易。

據知情人士透露，Dialog一直在與包括瑞薩電子（Renesas Electronics Corp.）和意法半導體（STMicroelectronics NV）在內的潛在收購方進行談判。

自從今年年初以來，由于蘋果5G手機的強勁需求以及收購傳聞，Dialog的股價已上漲了約25％。

知情人士說，審議仍在進行中。知情人士說，談判可能會拖得更長或更久，或者其他競標者仍會出現。
