TECHNOLOGY & ACCESS

What it does. Where it fits.

Microwave signal generation, multiplexed readout and feedback; LabOne Q experiment software.

Who should look closer

Laboratories building superconducting or compatible spin-qubit experiments that need coordinated control and measurement.

QubitWire’s editorial assessment of practical fit.

DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE

What has been demonstrated

A 2025 Nanjing-led experiment used SHFQC for simultaneous two-qubit optical-link control. A separate KRISS-led study used it for three-qubit readout and dynamical-decoupling measurements.

What remains unresolved

Control-system specifications do not establish the fidelity of a complete quantum processor. Published SHFQC experiments do not validate every specification of the newer SHFQC+ revision.

The next question to watch

Can larger control installations demonstrate their full feedback latency and calibration overhead on representative processor workloads?

A research question, not a promised milestone.

Sources & evidence

  1. SHFQC+ 8.5 GHz Qubit ControllerOrganization-originated source · Publication date not stated

    Current product documentation specifies control/readout channels, 350 ns internal feedback, available configurations and links to operating manuals. These specifications describe the current SHFQC+ version.

  2. LabOne Q DocumentationOrganization-originated source · Publication date not stated

    Maintained Python-based experiment documentation includes applications, instrument setup and interfaces for controlling QCCS and supported third-party hardware.

  3. Manipulations of a transmon qubit with a null-biased electro-optic fiber linkExternal source (may be a collaborator) · 17 Mar 2025

    Nanjing University and laboratory researchers report using SHFQC to drive two qubits through an electro-optic link. The listed affiliations exclude Zurich Instruments and the authors declare no competing interests.
