C-IG0160C

18GHz cryogenic impedance generators

NoiseTech has extended the frequency range of its cryogenic impedance generators to 12GHz. This frequency range enables wider range of applications, particularly for measuring cryogenic noise parameters of low-noise amplifiers for quantum computing/sensing applications.

NoiseTech to Develop Cryogenic Integrated Circuits for Quantum Computing

NoiseTech is becoming a fabless IC design company focusing on cryogenically cooled integrated circuits for quantum computing. Quantum bits (aka qubits) of quantum processors are cooled to mK temperatures to avoid thermal disturbance of their states. For scaling quantum computers to 1000s qubits, their control and readout should be performed in a cryogenic environment. This […]

C-SW00160

0.01-to-20GHz USB-Controlled Cryogenic Low-Power SPDT Switches

NoiseTech is introducing a cryogenic switch operating up to 20GHz. The switch consists of a room temperature controller, which interfaces to a computer via USB, and two independent cryogenic switches. Each switch interfaces to the controller via two low-frequency control wires. Unlike other switches, high-current pulses are not required to operate NoiseTech switches. Optional temperature […]

Primer on Noise Parameters

RF designers often find themselves working on input power matching their circuits to a 50-Ohm signal source. The goal of this task is to develop a matching network that delivers most of the input power to the device. For that, the matching network is optimized such that the reflection coefficient presented by the network to the signal source is low (typically less than 10dB return loss) over the required frequency range.
