Exhibit 99.4

September 20, 2015

Dear Valued Atmel Supplier,

We are excited to inform you that we have entered into a definitive agreement under which Dialog Semiconductor plc will acquire Atmel Corporation. This is a highly complementary acquisition and our belief is that bringing these two companies together will create an outstanding semiconductor franchise with the scale, technology, products and worldwide team to win in today’s semiconductor marketplace and provide outstanding solutions and service for Atmel’s customers.

Dialog is a fabless semiconductor manufacturer focused on mixed signal products primarily targeted towards power management, power conversion and connectivity applications. Dialog is headquartered in the United Kingdom but maintains a significant R&D presence in Germany, Silicon Valley and Asia. The combined company will have over $2.7 billion in revenue (based on the trailing twelve months results) and will provide customers with an unparalleled portfolio of technology and innovative products addressing the attractive Mobile, IoT, Industrial and Automotive end markets.

We expect the transaction to close by the end of the first calendar quarter of 2016, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals in various jurisdictions, as well as the approval of both Dialog and Atmel stockholders. Until then, Dialog and Atmel will continue to operate as independent companies. We will keep you updated on significant developments as they occur to ensure a seamless transition for our suppliers.

The press release announcing the transaction is available at http://ir.atmel.com/ and http://www.dialog-semiconductor.com/investor-relations/financial-news. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to your respective contact at Atmel.

Thank you for your longstanding commitment to Atmel. We look forward to building on our relationship and your continued support in the future.

Sincerely,

Steve Laub

President and CEO
