Abstract

Fast on-chip control of superconducting qubits has engaged complex and power consuming RSFQ circuits that currently pose more of an experimental burden than an asset. Measurements of quantum coherent oscillations of qubits require dilution refrigerator temperatures. The motivation of this design is to minimize the necessary bias leads and power dissipation for an SFQ based control circuit. Elimination of redundant circuit elements by innovative use of fundamental elements allows small-scale control circuitry.
