Cryogenic CMOS (cryo-CMOS) is a viable technology for the control interface of the large-scale quantum computers able to address non-trivial problems. In this paper, we demonstrate state-of-the-art cryo-CMOS circuits and systems for such application and we discuss the challenges still to be faced on the path towards practical quantum computers.
This paper presents a 15b cryo-CMOS DAC for multiplexed spin-qubit biasing implemented in a 22-nm FinFET process. The integrating-DAC architecture and the robust digitallyassisted high-voltage output stage enable a low power dissipation (157μW) and small area (0.08mm 2 ) independent of the number of biased qubits, and a 3V output range well beyond the nominal supply. This represents the first scalable solution for cryo-CMOS qubit biasing, which achieves a 1.8× better voltage resolution with a lower DNL over a 3× larger output range than the current state-of-the-art.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
