A −248-dB FOMref CS-Fusion PLL Architecture Combining the Advantages of PFD-CP PLLs and Sampling PLLs in a Single Loop 150 150

Abstract:

This article introduces a CP-sampling (CS)-fusion PLL architecture that combines the advantages of PFD-CP PLLs (robust and speedy locking) and sampling PLLs (low jitter/power) in a single loop. The PFD sends pulsewidth-modulation (PWM) pulses to a merged $mathbf {G_{m}}$ /CP (GCP) block so that the phase error …

Abstract:

Cryogenic fractional- $N$ phase-locked loops (PLLs) are essential for large-scale superconducting quantum computing, and serve as integrated pump sources for Josephson parametric amplifiers. These PLLs enable high-fidelity qubit readout while reducing the thermal load and wiring complexity associated with room-temperature generators. However, the cryogenic pump sources developed thus far were …
