The proxy statement contains information relating to the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of LOGIC Devices Incorporated to be held Wednesday, March 11, 2009, at 9:00 a.m., local time, and at any adjournment, postponement, or continuation of the annual meeting. The annual meeting will be held at our principal executive offices, located at 1375 Geneva Drive, Sunnyvale, California 94089. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy are first being mailed to shareholders on or about February 5, 2009. Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references in this proxy statement to “we,” “us,” “our,” “LOGIC,” or the “Company” mean LOGIC Devices Incorporated.

ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

What is the purpose of our annual meeting?

At our annual meeting, shareholders will act upon the matters outlined in the notice of meeting on the cover page of this proxy statement, including the election of directors and any other matters that properly come before the annual meeting. In addition, our management will report on our performance during fiscal 2008 and respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

VOTING

Who is entitled to vote at our meeting?

Holder of common stock of record at the close of business on the record date, February 2, 2009, are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at our annual meeting, and any adjournment, postponement, or continuation of our annual meeting.

What are the voting rights of our shareholders?

As of the record date, 6,814,438 shares of common stock were outstanding, each of which is entitled to one vote with respect to each matter to be voted on at our annual meeting.

Every shareholder voting for the election of directors may cumulate such shareholder's votes and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected (four) multiplied by the number of votes to which the shareholder's shares are entitled, or distribute such shareholder's votes on the same principle to among as many candidates as the shareholder may select, provided that votes cannot be cast for more than four candidates. However, no shareholder will be entitled to cumulate votes unless the candidate's name has been placed in nomination prior to the voting and the shareholder has given notice to our Secretary prior to the commencement of voting of the intention to cumulate the shareholder's vote.

Certain shareholders have given notice of their intention to cumulate their votes; therefore, all shareholders entitled to vote may cumulate their votes for candidates in nomination. On all other matters that properly come before the meeting, each share has one vote.

Who can attend our annual meeting?

All shareholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend our annual meeting. Even if you currently plan to attend our annual meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy as described below so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend our annual meeting.

If you hold your shares in “street name” (that is, through a broker or other nominee), you will need to bring a copy of your brokerage statement reflecting your stock ownership as of the record date and check in at the registration desk at our annual meeting.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at our annual meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the conduct of business at our annual meeting. Proxies received but marked as abstentions or broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares present at our annual meeting.

How do I vote?

If you or your duly authorized attorney-in-fact complete, properly sign, and return the accompanying proxy card to us by mail, telephone, or internet, it will be voted as you direct. If you are a registered shareholder and attend our annual meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person. “Street name” shareholders who wish to vote at our annual meeting will need to obtain a signed proxy from the institution that holds their shares.

May I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. Even after you have submitted your proxy, you may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised by filing with our Secretary either a notice or revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. The powers of the proxy holders will be revoked if you attend our annual meeting in person and request that your proxy be revoked, although attendance at our annual meeting will not by itself revoke a previously granted proxy.

What are our Board’s recommendations?

Unless you give other instructions on your proxy card, the persons named as proxy holders on the proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR election of our nominees for directors (see pages 6 through 7);

What vote is required to approve each matter?

Election of Directors. The four persons receiving the highest number of affirmative votes cast by the holders of common stock will be elected. You may either vote “FOR” or “WITHHOLD” authority to vote for each nominee for the Board of Directors. If you withhold authority to vote for the election of one of the directors, it has the same effect as a vote against that director.

Other Proposals. Any other proposals would be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote on that item of business at a duly called meeting at which a quorum is present. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN” on any other proposal.

If you sign your proxy card or broker voting instruction card with no further instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board, i.e., “FOR” all proposals.

So far as our management is aware, no matters other those described in this proxy statement will be acted upon at our annual meeting. In the event that any other matters properly come before our annual meeting for a vote of shareholders, the persons named as proxies on the proxy card will vote in accordance with their best judgment on such other matters.

Who will pay the costs of soliciting proxies on behalf of our Board of Directors?

The cost of this solicitation will be borne by LOGIC Devices Incorporated. In addition to solicitation by mail, our officers, directors, and employees may solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile, or in person. We may also request banks and brokers to solicit their customers who have a beneficial interest in our common stock registered in the names of nominees and will reimburse such banks and brokers for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. We may retain an outside firm to solicit proxies on our behalf.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires that our officers and directors, as well as persons who own 10% or more of a class of our equity securities, file reports of their ownership of our securities, as well as statements of changes in such ownership, with us and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon written representations received by us from our officers, directors, and 10% or greater shareholders, and our review of the statements of beneficial ownership changes filed with us by our officers, directors, and 10% or greater shareholders during fiscal 2008, we believe all such filings required during our fiscal year 2008 were made on a timely basis.

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Four directors will be elected at our annual meeting to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their respective successors are elected. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named.

It is anticipated that proxies will be voted for such nominees, and our Board of Directors has no reason to believe any nominee will not continue to be a candidate or will not be able to serve as a director if elected.

________________________

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our Board of Directors undertook a review of director independence in November 2008 as to all of the four directors then serving. As part of that process, our Board reviewed all transactions and relationships between each director (or any member of his immediate family) and LOGIC Devices Incorporated, our executive officers, and our auditors, and other matters bearing on the independence of directors. As a result of this review, our Board affirmatively determined that all of the directors, except Mr. Volz, are independent as defined by the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. Mr. Volz is not independent under the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules because he is employed by LOGIC Devices Incorporated and he serves as Chief Executive Officer.

Committees of our Board of Directors and Committee Independence

Our Board of Directors has established a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and an Audit Committee. The composition and function of these committees are set forth below.

Among its other duties, the Compensation Committee recommends Board compensation and oversees any stock incentive plans. The current members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Farkas, Cardozo, and Settles. During fiscal 2008, the Compensation Committee met two times.

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reviews our accounting, auditing, financial reporting, and internal control functions and selects our independent auditors. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which can be found on our website, www.logicdevices.com. The current members, Messrs. Cardozo, Farkas, and Settles are all independent as determined by applicable Nasdaq and SEC rules and all qualify as “Audit Committee Financial Experts” as defined by SEC rules. The committee met four times during fiscal 2008.

Consideration of Director Nominees

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will utilize a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for director. The committee will regularly assess the appropriate size of our Board, and whether any vacancies on our Board are expected due to retirement or otherwise. In the event that vacancies are anticipated, or otherwise arise, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider various potential candidates for director. Candidates may come to the attention of the committee through current directors, shareholders, or other persons. The committee has not paid fees to any third party to identify, evaluate, or to assist in identifying or evaluating, potential nominees, but may determine it necessary in the future. Candidates will be evaluated at meetings of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

If you would like to submit a proposal for the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, it must be received by our Secretary, Kimiko Milheim, at 1375 Geneva Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94089, at any time prior to October 16, 2009, and must otherwise comply with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy statement for that meeting, unless the date of the next annual meeting changes by more than 30 days from the date of this Annual Meeting, in which case notice must be received a reasonable time before mailing.

A shareholder's notice of nomination should set forth (i) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (including such person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director, if elected); (ii) as to any other business that the shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such shareholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (iii) as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made, (A) the name and address of such shareholder, as they appear on our books, and of such beneficial owner, (B) the number of shares of our common stock that are owned (beneficially or of record) by such shareholder and such beneficial owner, (C) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such shareholder and such beneficial owner and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such shareholder and any material interest of such shareholder and of such beneficial owner in such business, and (D) a representation that such shareholder or its agent or designee intends to appear in person or by proxy at our annual meeting to bring such business before the meeting.

In evaluating nominations for candidates for membership on our Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will seek to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience, and capability on the Board and to address the following membership criteria. Members of the Board should have the highest professional and personal ethics and values. They should have broad experience at the policy-making level in business, government, education, technology, or public interest. They should be committed to enhancing shareholder value and should have sufficient time to carry out their duties and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience. Their service on other boards of public companies should be limited to a number that permits them, given their individual circumstances, to perform responsibly all directors' duties.

Other Information about our Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors met three times during fiscal 2008. Each nominee who served as a director in fiscal year 2008 attended at least 75% or more of the meetings of our Board of Directors and any committee on which he served.

We do not have a formal policy on attendance at meetings of our shareholders; however, we encourage all Board members to attend shareholder meetings that are held in conjunction with a meeting of our Board of Directors. All members of our Board of Directors attended the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Shareholders may communicate with our Board as a group, the chair of any committee, or any individual director by doing so in writing to the address set forth on the front page of this proxy statement.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Disclosure and Analysis

Overview of Compensation Program

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors oversees our compensation and policies, our compensation levels, including reviewing and approving equity awards to our executive officers, and reviews and recommends annually for approval by our Board of Directors all compensation decisions relating to our executive officers.

Compensation Philosophy

Our executive compensation policies are designed to attract, retain, and motivate qualified executives by providing them with a competitive total compensation package based in large part on the executive’s contribution to our financial and operational success and the executive’s personal performance. We believe that total compensation paid to our executives should be fair, reasonable, and competitive. Accordingly, each executive officer’s compensation package may be comprised of three elements: base salary, which is determined on the basis of the individual’s position and responsibilities, the level of the individual’s performance, and the financial performance of the Company; incentive performance awards payable in cash and tied to the achievement of performance goals; and long-term stock incentive awards designed to strengthen the mutuality of interest between executive officers and our shareholders. In certain periods, the compensation of executive officers is also affected by our internal conditions and our external market position.

Use of Compensation Consultants and Role of Management

For fiscal 2008, the Compensation Committee did not use the services of a compensation consultant; however, it may consider doing so for fiscal 2009. For fiscal 2008, the Compensation Committee reviewed surveys, reports, and other market data compiled by Equilar Inc., against which it measured the competitiveness of our compensation programs to other companies within our industry with comparable revenues.

The Compensation Committee makes all compensation decisions for the executive officers and approves recommendations regarding equity awards to all executive officers. The Compensation Committee solicits input from the Chief Executive Officer regarding the duties, responsibilities, and performance of the other executive officer and the results of performance reviews. The conclusions reached and recommendations based on these reviews, including with respect to the salary adjustments and annual award amounts, are presented to the Compensation Committee, who can exercise their discretion in modifying any recommended adjustments or awards to executive officers.

Executive Compensation Components

Our typical executive compensation components include base salary and variable bonus awards. The base salary of our executive officers is established primarily on the basis of the individual’s qualifications and relevant experience, the strategic goals for which he or she has responsibility, the compensation levels at comparable companies, and the incentives necessary to attract and retain qualified management. We attempt to set the base salary each year to take into account the individual’s performance and to maintain a competitive salary structure. During their review of base salaries for executive officers, the Compensation Committee primarily considers market data, the individual performance of each executive officer, and an internal review of the executive officer’s compensation, both individually and relative to other executive officers.

The Compensation Committee has the latitude to provide cash bonus awards and long-term stock option awareds based on the achievement of Company objectives and performance goals.

Options have and would be awarded at the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant, as determined by Nasdaq. The Compensation Committee has never granted options with an exercise price that is less than the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant, nor has it granted options that are priced on a date other than the grant date.

Options granted have and would vest at a rate of 25% on the date of grant, and 25% per year over the next three years of the ten-year option term. Vesting and exercise rights cease three months after termination of employment, except in the case of death (subject to a one-year limitation) or disability (Compensation Committee has the right to extend the three-month period by an additional nine months). Prior to the exercise of an option, the holder has no rights as a shareholder with respect to the shares subject to such option, including voting rights and the right to receive dividends or dividend equivalents.

Our practice has been to extend fringe benefits to all of our employees, with no special treatment for our executive officers. Our goal is to provide a benefit package of equal or higher aggregate value than offered by comparable companies with which we compete. Such benefits include paid vacations and holidays, 401(k) retirement plans, health savings accounts, tuition reimbursement, and health, life, and dental insurance. We believe these benefits help us attract and retain employees.

Employment and Other Agreements

We do not have employment, severance, or change of control agreements with our executive officers.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

None of our directors were paid any directors cash fees by us during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008. Historically, each of our non-employee directors receives an automatic grant of an option to purchase 15,000 shares of our common stock upon election or re-election to our Board of Directors, per the Amended and Restated LOGIC Devices Incorporated Director Stock Incentive Plan. These options vest immediately and have a five-year term. Directors are reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with attending meetings of our Board and Board Committees.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, our non-employee directors (Howard Farkas, Brian Cardozo, and Steve Settles) each received the automatic option grant, which was valued at $2,880.00 for each director.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSONAL TRANSACTIONS

Since the beginning of our fiscal year 2008, we have not entered into any transaction, nor is there any currently proposed transaction, in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last three fiscal years, and in which any executive officer, any director, any nominee for director or any family member of the foregoing had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Before we would consider entering into any transaction in which any executive officer, director, nominee or any family member of the foregoing would have any direct or indirect interest, regardless of the amount involved, the terms of such transaction would have to be presented to our Board of Directors (other than any interested director) for approval.
