Quantum Instrument Port Configuration
应用文章
As with most breakthroughs, next-generation Quantum computers are being prototyped, characterized and operated on hardware available now. General purpose hardware adapted to create the very special output signals required to prototype a single channel of a feasible quantum computer. Then a feedback system is created to enable that signal to adapt to streaming requirements needed to maintain the quantum process. Then that refined, reactive signal is scaled up to 10’s or even hundreds of channels. This is a non-trivial task. In this case, modular, FPGA-based, scalable arbitrary waveform generators and digitizers are used. Let’s look at specific aspects of the architecture to better explain the mechanics of the prototype and signal adjustments that are closing the gaps for Quantum.
