Quantum Motion delivers the
Deployed at the UK National Quantum Computing Centre quantum computer to use mass manufacturable 300mm silicon CMOS wafer technology and the installed under the NQCC’s Quantum Computing Testbed Programme. The system integrates the
company’s Quantum Processing Unit (QPU) with a user interface and control stack compatible with industry standard software frameworks, such as Qiskit and Cirq, making it a full-stack solution. The system has a data-centre-friendly footprint of just three 19” server racks, housing the dilution refrigerator and integrated control electronics. Auxiliary equipment is designed to sit separately, supporting upgrades to much larger QPUs without any change to the system footprint.
UK Science Minister Lord Vallance said: “Our National Quantum Computing Centre offers a unique space for innovators to trial new quantum technologies. This new form of quantum computer from Quantum Motion will take this groundbreaking technology another step closer to commercial viability – which could help support healthcare with faster drug discovery or clean energy by optimising energy grids.”

Welcome to the September issue of Electronics for Engineers
W
elcome to September’s issue of Electronics for Engineers. Although I’ve been out of formal education for several years now, September always seems to feel like a new beginning, April. Many of you may agree, perhaps with Children or other family beginning the school year.
For us here at Electronics for Engineers, we are taking advantage of this ‘new beginning feeling’ expanding our media output with EfE TV, a video interview platform, and free-to-view Webinars on a variety of topics.
