Abstract
Rapid Single-Flux-Quantum (RSFQ) logic is a superconductor IC technology that, with only a modest number of researchers worldwide, has produced some of the world's highest performance digital and mixed-signal circuits. This achievement is due, in part, to a constellation of characteristics that manifest themselves at the circuit level – namely, high-speed digital logic at low-power, ideal interconnects, quantum accuracy, scalability, and simplicity of fabrication. A necessary key to translating these advantages to the system-level involves understanding the I/O, synchronization, and packaging issues associated with a cryogenic technology. The objective of this paper is to review the status of current RSFQ circuit-level infrastructure components and their potential impact on system-level applications.
