Pulse sequencer
Generate complex arbitrary waveforms by sequencing simple building blocks in pulse mode. Record your response coherently by scheduling signal acquisition, analysis and feedback in the same sequence. Finally, complete the experiment by on-board parameter sweeping and interleaved averaging with zero over-head.
- 2 ns sequence resolution
- >10k events in one sequence
- 200 ns feedback latency
- Raw data acquisition or template matching
- Phase coherence across all input and output ports in the entire sequence
- On-board averaging and multi-dimensional parameter stepper
- Applications: gate based quantum computing, qubit control, readout and reset etc.
- Learn how it works
Multifrequency continuous wave
Generate multifrequency continuous wave signals and demodulate IQ response from your Device Under Test with lockin mode.
- 192 generators and demodulators
- Individually controlled amplitude, frequency and phase
- Phase coherence across all input and output ports
- Gap-less demodulation
- Programmable real-time feedback
- Applications: frequency sweeping, two-tone spectroscopy, intermodulation spectroscopy, CV quantum computing, scanning probe microscopy
- Learn how it works
