Qubit Readout Module RF | QRM - RF II

COMPATIBLE WITH:

The Qubit Readout RF Module (QRM-RF) stands as a solution for multi-qubit readout pulse generation and signal acquisition over a wide frequency range from 2 GHz up to 18.5 GHz.

Reflectometry and transmission measurements are simplified by triggering both pulse generation and acquisition from the same sequence processor while sharing the same local oscillator for guaranteed phase stability. The QRM-RF merges internal up- and down-conversion stages and enables the direct acquisition, allowing direct RF signal handling with adjustable gain and high SFDR across the entire frequency range. Advanced onboard processing enables complex integration, qubit state thresholding, and averaging, while support for up to 131,072 IQ shots provides a unified platform for scalable and efficient qubit measurement.

QRM-RF key highlights

Operating from 2 to 18.5 GHz, this module supports scalable multi‑qubit readout and acquisition, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of quantum experiments.
Real-time control of amplitude offsets and modulation phases allows precise tailoring of readout pulses, critical for spectroscopy and advanced measurement protocols.
Long pulse and integration times can be constructed directly from sequencer instructions, enabling complex spectroscopy and time‑resolved studies without hardware constraints.
With measurement results up to three million IQ bins, the module provides powerful averaging, thresholding, and statistical analysis, streamlining qubit state discrimination at scale.
By external instrument triggering via two outputs, the experiments achieve guaranteed phase stability and a simplified setup.
Integrated up‑ and down‑conversion stages enable direct RF signal handling with adjustable gain and high SFDR, ensuring accurate measurements across the full frequency range.

Using the QRM-RF in the Qblox Cluster

SYNQ & LINQ

Using the proprietary SYNQ and LINQ interconnect protocols, all modules communicate and run in synchrony. This architecture ensures precise alignment of control, readout, and processing, allowing users to configure a control stack that matches their quantum system and supports high‑fidelity operation.

Seamless Cross-Module Integration

Qblox’s modular architecture allows interoperability between the QRM-RF and other modules, including the Qubit Readout Module (QRM), Qubit Control Modules (QCM and QCM‑RF II), Qubit Readout and Control (QRC), and the Qubit Timetag Module (QTM).

Scalable QRM-RF Cluster Integration

The Qubit Readout RF Module (QRM-RF) operates within the Qblox Cluster mainframe, offering seamless integration and scalability. A single 19” rack Cluster unit can accommodate up to 20 QRM-RF modules, providing density for up to 20 input and 20 output channels.

Trusted by the teams building the quantum future.

As we build integrated multimodal quantum data centers and connect quantum processors directly with HPC infrastructures, transparent, low-level hardware control is essential to delivering scalable, hybrid quantum–classical computing environments. Qblox enables this level of hardware control through Q1ASM, giving us at Qilimanjaro the precision and flexibility needed to advance our analog and digital QPUs."

Senior Researcher Chalmers

Since 2022, Qblox has been a trustworthy partner, providing the qubit-agnostic control electronics essential to our vision. Their Cluster’s SYNQ & LINQ protocols enabled the ultra-low latency required for our fast, parallel qubit characterization. We highly recommend Qblox for their professionalism and innovative approach to quantum computing challenges.'

Vishal Chatrath
CEO

Qblox cluster is certainly one of the most important elements in our new spin qubit lab. The easy-to-use and compact system allows us to set up a spin qubit control system within a couple of hours. We have used it for the RF reflectometry readout of our first in-house quantum dot! I look forward to getting more exciting results by using the Qblox cluster. What I also appreciate is the good communication and friendship between Qblox and the customers."

Tzu-Kan Hsiao
Professor

The Qblox control stack has transformed our lab by replacing four separate pieces of equipment with a single, integrated 'blue box'. By combining RF/MW generation with coincidence detection and timetagging, our students achieve results faster. Combined with their excellent, fast-response support, Qblox is essential for our state-of-the-art research."
