  • Abstract
    On the basis of a specific development procedure a review and a critical analysis are made of the state of the art criteria and tools for MMIC design and for evaluation of their yield and reliability. The information usually available from foundries are also critically reviewed. Finally, specific research fields are pointed out where more urgent is the need of enhanced theoretical and experimental tools.
