Speed up Quantum Design: Keysight lauches EDA tool QuantumPro
Date: 12/03/2024
Keysight Technologies has unveiled QuantumPro, a needy electronic design automation (EDA) tool tailored for the seamless creation of quantum computers based on superconducting qubits. QuantumPro deliver integrated electromagnetic (EM) design and simulation capabilities within the Advanced Design System (ADS) 2024 platform. This solution quantum engineers to overcome the challenges of traditional quantum design, streamlining the development process and accelerating time-to-market for quantum chips and systems.
Cost-Effective Electromagnetic Simulation:
QuantumPro employs a method of moments (MOM) approach for electromagnetic simulation, significantly reducing computational costs while accelerating the development of quantum chips. QuantumPro lowers hardware engineer knowledge barrier for simulating superconducting qubits with automated quantum parameter extraction and cross-checking using multiple methods.
Seamless Tuning of Qubits and Resonators:
Engineers can effortlessly fine-tune qubits and resonators through co-simulation and parametric analysis, enabling efficient optimization of quantum circuits.
Design of Quantum Amplifiers:
The solution simplifies the design of quantum amplifiers using a nonlinear circuit design environment, facilitating detailed analysis of performance metrics such as gain profile and quantum efficiency.
Library of Quantum Layout Components:
QuantumPro integrates a comprehensive library of quantum layout components within ADS, facilitating the creation and optimization of quantum chips directly within the layout environment.
With early adopters like Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech leveraging QuantumPro to unlock quantum advantage, the future of quantum computing looks promising, driven by advancements in design and simulation technologies.
Albert Solana, Chief Business Officer, Qilimanjaro, said: "We have been looking for a qubit EDA solution that leverages established principles for microwave engineers. We selected Keysight QuantumPro because it provides a complete workflow from design entry through layout, analysis, and extraction. The tool is easy to use and gives us everything we need to develop our forthcoming chips."
Chris Mueth, Senior Director of Emerging Markets, Keysight EDA, said: "QuantumPro is the EDA industry's first electromagnetic design environment that delivers a complete workflow for superconducting qubit development. The tool provides high precision through its 3D EM simulators that span both finite element method (FEM) for frequency domain and eigenmode, and MOM for frequency domain analysis. Automated quantum parameter extraction from frequency domain and eigenmode solutions allows easy optimization with built-in Python scripting. QuantumPro also elevates EM workflow for kinetic inductance modeling."
