In the microwave industry the term MIC has been used to refer to
planar microwave integrated circuits using one or more different forms
of Transmission lines, active and passive discrete components such as
transistors, chip capacitors and registers are then attached. This
technology is known as a hybrid MIC.
MMICs are most recent development, where all active and passive
circuits are grown or implemented in the substrate. MMIC’s can be
made at lower cost because manual labour required for HMIC is
eliminated. A single wafer contain can contain a large number of
circuits, which can be processed and fabricated simultaneously.
MMIC
These devices can perform functions such as:-
-microwave mixing
-power amplification
-low noise amplification
-high frequency switching
GaAs MMIC devices also are 100 to 1000 times more resistant to
radiation than Si devices.

Hybrid MIC
First a layout is printed in the substrate/dielectric and then lumped
components/ transistors or other elements are embedded.
where k is the voltage attenuation factor and Z0 the reference impedance, e.g., 50 Ω.
