Octave is an auto-calibrated compact instrument for up/down conversion of OPX+ baseband signals (DC – 400 MHz) to microwave signals (2 – 18 GHz). With Octave, you can have full confidence in your microwave signals’ fidelity, hassle-free – leaving you time to focus on what matters: your qubits.
Octave has built-in IQ mixers and local oscillators – offering a comprehensive setup without asking your team to deal with mixer calibrations – Octave calibrates mixers automatically in a fraction of a second.
Unlike traditional quantum control solutions that use fixed channels, either baseband or microwave, OPX+ with Octave provides channels that are either baseband when connected directly from OPX+ or microwave if routed through Octave – allowing for easy modification as needed.
By stacking multiple Octave units. Whether you’re experimenting on a single qubit or many qubits, Octave scales with your QPU.
"Quantum Machines' OPX played a key role in our roadmap. It enabled us to get the best control electronics out there [FPGA] without having to learn how to program them. QM provides a very scalable, very easy to use and very powerful hardware, which allows us to focus on the quantum science."
“The Quantum Machines OPX control system has been an enabling technology for our research. It provides unparalleled flexibility and ease of use for experiments requiring real-time quantum feedforward control. With the integrated high-resolution time tagging, this platform is a no-brainer for advanced quantum networking experiments.”
“Incorporating the OPX+ in our measurement instruments allowed us to set up time-domain measurements in minutes, seriously speeding up our sample characterization process.
With the provided extensive live online help we get the support from QM's experts to further debug any problems arising during measurements. With QM support Qilimanjaro can deliver their differential Analog Quantum Computers based on superconducting qubit technology.”
"Using the OPX has been simplifying our work in many respects due to the intuitive implementation of sequences within QUA. In addition, the support by QM helped us debugging possible issues with swift responses and an easy and informal way of getting in touch over Discord.”
"Writing our experiments [with QUA] is easy and intuitive, and we can now focus on the physics instead. In two days we had brought up our (6-q) chip completely, calibrated all parameters, and wrote the pulse sequence of our final experiment."
"OPX played a crucial role in our advanced quantum experiments. This platform is the most flexible and user-friendly system in our lab. It saved us a significant amount of time, enabling us to concentrate on quantum science and make progress much faster compared to writing our own code. Furthermore, the Quantum Machines customer success team has been extremely helpful in addressing our needs and maximizing the solution's full potential."
"I regard Quantum Machines as the quintessential example of how deep-tech companies should operate in harmony. Their OPX+ devices exemplify excellence, and the team's unmatched business ethos sets them apart. From unboxing the OPX+ to the first measurements is a truly exhilarating experience. They consistently go above and beyond for their customers, ensuring mutual success. Transitioning from academia to the startup realm, I have rarely encountered a company as remarkable as Quantum Machines."
“Developing a functional qubit control electronic system absorbs a PhD-student full time at least for two years. QM’S Quantum Orchestration Platform allowed us set up experiments for full qubit characterization in 2-3 days with an undergraduate summer school student.”
“Efficiently controlling multiple frequency-tunable transmon qubits can be achieved with QM's OPX and QDevil's QDAC. QDAC's high-precision and low-noise bias voltage ensures accurate qubit frequency control without compromising coherence times, while QM's OPX offers advanced control solutions that are user-friendly and require minimal technical expertise. I highly recommend using OPX and QDAC together to streamline your lab processes and advance your quantum computing research.”
“QOP is our main tool when doing error correction. It provides us with very fast feedback. It enabled us to perform advanced procedures … in a very short time. We could just purchase the technology that is tailor-made for… that we want to use.”
“Integrating the control of the lab into a single unit made my research experience much easier. I can honestly say it is thanks to Quantum Machines’ well-engineered hardware and their team's true willingness to assist.”
“The OPX makes it a breeze to develop from scratch a brand-new superconducting qubit capability. Getting started is straightforward, the coding is easy, and the customer support is fantastic! The OPX reduces the potential barrier to progress and is also well suited for teaching.”
“Replacing three devices with one synchronized, orchestrated machine tremendously simplified lab workflow. Now our pulse sequences run in a fraction of the time of any other device combo. Plus, we can “talk” to the FPGA in human-speak, to run real-time calculations that were too complicated before! Along with the yoga-level.”
“Dedicated hardware for controlling and operating quantum bits is something we have all been dreaming of. Quantum Machines has answered this call by allowing us and others in the field to scale up with ease and with far greater functionality than was ever possible before.”
“I must say I'm very happy with QM's Quantum Orchestration Platform. It's the single most reliable piece of equipment I've got in the lab. I operate it remotely and never had any problems. I strongly recommend the OPX and the QOP to my colleagues. It is by far the simplest way to do qubit physics.”
“It is a pleasure to work with Quantum Machines, which results in enjoyable interactions and a fast pace to getting actual results. The Quantum Orchestration Platform (QOP) has been easy to use and very powerful, but we are still just scratching the surface of its full capabilities!”
“The OPX+ has allowed us to tune up complex multi-qubit measurements with multiplexed control and readout signals for studying quasiparticle poisoning and correlated errors in superconducting qubit arrays. The on-board processing has been quite useful for analyzing qubit data streams on the fly.”
