Crutcher was named president and CEO on June 1.
“I have tremendous pride in this company, and passion for continuing to make TI even stronger and better.”

Templeton, who has been chairman of the board, said he was looking ahead to building on the semiconductor company’s success.
“I have tremendous pride in this company, and passion for continuing to make TI even stronger and better,” Templeton said in the release. “I remain dedicated to moving TI forward with an unwavering commitment to operate ethically and conduct ourselves professionally in everything we do.”
At the same time it announced the leadership change, TI said it had second-quarter revenue of $4.02 billion, up 9 percent from the same quarter a year ago.
