Jason, can you provide a little visibility into some of the legacy products in terms of, at this point what percentage of revenue they are, or how much longer you think that would be an overhang to the overall business?
Jason Rhode
No, we really don't break out our products any further than Audio and Industrial. I will say it's a significant -- it's a significant amount of products. Older products are products that we define as seven years old or older. We've got a fairly -- a good amount of that. It's across a broad variety of the product lines, and I don't necessarily think that's all bad. We're in a lot of markets where products have very long lifecycles. It's just we have seen a bit of a trend of increase in the rate of decline in the past quarter or so.
Craig Hettenbach - Wachovia Securities
Okay. And then for some of the new consumer products that you spoke about, some seasonal growth in calendar Q3 and some new customers. Can you help give us a little visibility in terms of the pace of some of these new products, how they ramp? Is it a steady ramp in the next couple quarters? Are there any quarters where there's a bigger inflection point to some revenue from new products?
Jason Rhode
Well, yes, that's a good segue. I appreciate it. That is really the thing to be excited about, is that as we were forecasting some growth this quarter, it is reflective of the fact that the newer products that are ramping in are finally in a position to outpace some of the older stuff that's gone away. We've seen good design win success over the last year in portable and automotive, and that's finally starting to show up in some backlog for some significant new developments.
We've already made shipments to that. And the ramps of various different programs in everything from portable and DTV, power meter, automotive, precision power, as you can imagine, that all varies pretty, pretty widely in terms of how quickly things take off.
Craig Hettenbach - Wachovia Securities
Okay, and then last one, if I could. Can you just discuss order linearity through the June quarter? And do you have any view on inventory levels in the channel as we go into a seasonally stronger part of the year?
