Abstract :
HMIC is a low cost, batch processed, surface mountable, microwave manufacturing technology that provides hybrid-type flexibility with monolithic-type passive component repeatability and precision. Recent results on power amplifier circuits have shown high power-added efficiencies with reduced size and is paving the way for low cost, high performance circuits for wireless communication markets.<>
