Interviewed Oct 2010 in Tucson, AZ (took a day)
Had a 1:1 interview with 6 different poeple from various departments. The recruiters were friendly, and made me comfortable during the interview. This was my first interview and I did not perform as well, blanking out occasionally.
The questions were asked using a basic circuit (mostly opamps )and making modifications to it.

Interviewed Aug 2009 (took 2 days)
Initially got a call from the hiring manager, just general questions about myself and why I wanted the job. What I was looking to get out of the new job, if offered. What TI brought to the table as far as personal growth and knowledge opportunities. Most TI employees are very outgoing and willing to help, I knew this going in so I had the opportunity to talk to a few of them prior to the interview. Office environment was very professional, appearances are somewhat business casual.

Negotiation Details
I would negotiate time bank with recruiter or hiring manager, timebank system is a bit behind other companies. If a person has 10+ years with one company and doesn't negotiate some higher level of expected timebank coming in, they are going to be in for a shock.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Dallas, TX (took a day)
First, I had a phone interview for the system engineer position in their wireless unit. The requirement of the job has MS+2 or PhD. The phone interview was smooth since it was mostly about what the job entails and what I did in my PhD. My thesis was a good fit for the skills which the job needs and I had a feeling they would get back to me with a onsite interview.
The onsite interview consisted of me giving a talk and then meeting various members of different groups with whom I might collaborate and work in future. The interview process was smooth and they made me feel at home. I mostly met with mid level employees who had been there for atleast 7-8 years and not the new hires like me. The process was smooth although I was expecting it to be a bit more rigorous. I left with a feeling that they might offer and they did after two weeks.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took a day)
I was offered an interview last week while at a job fair. The recruiter asked me to write a program to find the average of 10 numbers using arrays (the language didnt matter). Next he drew an AC signal and asked me to draw that circuit after it went through an ADC converter. Next, he asked me about the Fourier Series equations. He asked me about some of the projects I'm working on and that was about it.

Interviewed Feb 2009 in Dallas, TX (took 3 days)
I first interviewed with the regional manager in an informal and relaxed setting. We reviewed my resume and my experiences with other companies in the educational publishing space. the regional manager said that the HR person will get back to me with a decision to go forward to stop here. I was called back for a panel interview at TI headquarters in Dallas. It consisted of four people. They asked me various questions like why I want to work for TI, what I learned from my previous experience, and what I expect to do to be successful. I gave a mini-presentation on why a school should adopt their graphing calculators.
I was offered a position and turned it down.

Reason for Declining
My employer at the time countered with a higher salary and bonus if I blew the doors off my quota, something that TI doesn't do.
