Superconducting qubit design workflow in QuantumPro

To create quantum computing chips today, a typical designer must cobble various tools together, switching back and forth between them for different tasks. By contrast, EDA solutions such as Keysight Advanced Design System (ADS) unify a design workflow in a single interface with automated data exchange between features. In … Read More
