SEEQC has announced a major manufacturing partnership with Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) to build a dedicated process line for producing its proprietary Single Flux Quantum (SFQ) superconducting control chips, a critical component of the company’s fully digital, chip-based quantum computing architecture. The collaboration will focus initially on technology transfer and process development, with SEEQC’s R&D team providing ongoing technical guidance. These SFQ-based chips operate at cryogenic temperatures to deliver ultra-low power consumption, high-speed processing, low latency, and essential functions such as timing, readout, multiplexing, and error correction-capabilities foundational for building scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computers.
