Got it. Thanks for that. And then from an end market perspective, you said earlier that you reiterated the bumping up against the billion dollars in the automotive side of things. So that's really impressive growth. And it seems like that could get you that slight sequential growth in the back half quarters all by itself. Are there other segments that you expect to continue to go down in the back half? It seemed like you said that inventory should be pretty normalized, so I wouldn't expect them to go up that fast necessarily, but it didn't sound like anything was going to go down. So what's really the offset to the automotive growth?

And then the other markets, we've just taken a cautious outlook. And if the inventory normalizes the way we expected, then perhaps we'll do slightly better. If the inventory and the macroeconomic kind of low-end malaise continues, then we'll be in line with what we told you. So we feel like we've positioned ourselves conservatively. Thank you.
