SECTION 1 – CONFLICT MINERALS DISCLOSURE
| Item 1.01 | Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report |
Cirrus Logic, Inc. (the “Company”) has evaluated its current product lines and determined that certain products that we manufactured, or contracted to manufacture, during calendar year 2015 use “conflict minerals” that are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. Conflict minerals are defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (the “3TG” minerals). The Company conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding those 3TG minerals to determine whether any of the 3TG minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia, and Angola (the “Covered Countries”), and whether any of the 3TG minerals may be from recycled or scrap sources. Based on its inquiry, the Company concluded that it was required to conduct due diligence on the source or chain of custody of its 3TG minerals. Accordingly, we have filed a Conflict Minerals Report as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD.

A copy of the Company’s Conflict Minerals Report is provided as Exhibit 1.01 hereto and is publicly available at investor.cirrus.com in the Corporate Governance section of our website.
