Quantum Control System
Product Fact Sheets
Keysight’s Quantum Control System (QCS) combines dedicated quantum control hardware and full-stack software capabilities to provide an easy-to-use solution for the control and readout of quantum devices. QCS is a direct digital conversion (DDC) architecture for the generation and acquisition of microwave, baseband, and digital signals used to control and read out quantum devices. The new quantum specific Python API is a powerful and intuitive software that enables easy execution of textbook quantum experiments, the flexibility to quickly design and execute custom pulse sequences, all while automatically ensuring timing and synchronization to sub-nanosecond levels. Leveraging the onboard FPGAs is simple and intuitive via the Python API. It facilitates dynamic user defined pulse primitives and real-time heterodyne demodulation, allowing the user to focus on quantum physics rather than FPGA programming.
