Better Buy: Skyworks Solutions, Inc. vs. Texas Instruments

Skyworks Solutions (NASDAQ: SWKS) and Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: TXN) both sell analog and embedded chips to a wide range of industries. Both chipmakers are also prominent Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) suppliers, and both were lifted by the industrywide rally in semiconductors over the past year.

Skyworks rallied more than 50% over the past 12 months, while TI jumped more than 25%. But the companies are fundamentally different -- Skyworks is a smaller chipmaker that is more heavily exposed to Apple, while TI is a bigger chipmaker with a more diversified business. Let's examine both stocks to see which is the better long-term buy at current prices.
