sureCore announces development of cryo-CMOS IP that will unlock Quantum Computing’s potential

September 3, 2021

Sheffield, England 1 September, 2021 – sureCore, the ultra-low power embedded IP specialist, has announced that it is developing a range of CMOS IP suitable for operation at the extremely low temperature required for Quantum Computing (QC) applications. This will enable the design of Cryo-CMOS control chips that can be co-located with the qubits in the cryostat. This will help solve the current problem of extensive and performance limiting cabling used to connect the qubits with their associated control electronics usually running at room temperatures outside the cryostat. For Quantum Computers to realise their incredible potential, thousands, if not millions of qubits … Read More → "sureCore announces development of cryo-CMOS IP that will unlock Quantum Computing’s potential"
