IonQ's Superion 10K quantum processor uses Active CMOS and Cryo-CMOS technology integrated into the QPU to scale from 256 to 10,000 physical qubits and implement the Walking Cat quantum error correction architecture. SkyWater's cryogenic CMOS manufacturing expertise is critical to transforming the control system into a highly integrated semiconductor architecture capable of supporting full-scale quantum operations.
An introductory explanation of electrical circuits, voltage, current, and power in computing. Voltage represents the push on charge, current is the flow rate, and power is their product. The article clarifies misconceptions using analogies and defines key terms like ground, Vdd, and decade for understanding how processors work at the electrical level.
