Qubit ZooWe introduce a Xilinx RF System-on-Chip (RFSoC)-based qubit controller (called the Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit, or QICK for short), which supports the direct synthesis of control pulses with carrier frequencies of up to 6 GHz.
Key Results
- The QICK can control multiple qubits or other quantum devices.
- The QICK consists of a digital board hosting an RFSoC field-programmable gate array, custom firmware, and software and an optional companion custom-designed analog front-end board.
- We characterize the analog performance of the system as well as its digital latency, important for quantum error correction and feedback protocols.
