Abstract — This paper deals with recent achievements in the field of an emerging technology termed as Quantum MMIC (QMMIC). QMMIC consists of a Heterojunction Interband Tunneling Diode and a High Electron Mobility Transistor monolithically integrated to obtain a new functional device. This technology enables the realization of low voltage, high density and high functionality circuits. A detailed description of the design and analysis techniques for several circuits such as an amplifier, an oscillator and a mixer, along with the analytical treatment of the principle of operation are given in this paper. A number of prototypes implemented in InP technology constitute the proof-of-concept of the unique features of QMMIC circuit blocks for low-power wireless systems.
