Domestically Produced High-Density Microwave Interconnect Module for Quantum Computing Achieves Localization

TapTechNews May 16th news, Origin Quantum Computing Technology (Hefei) Co., Ltd. announced today: The high-density microwave interconnect module has successfully achieved complete localization.

According to the official introduction of Origin Quantum, the quantum chip can be likened to the 'quantum computing brain' and needs to operate in an ultra-low temperature environment of -273.12°C or lower. The high-density microwave interconnect module can be likened to the 'neural network' in a quantum computer, with special low-temperature high-frequency coaxial cables built into the module, which can establish a high-speed and stable connection between the quantum chip and external devices, accurately and quickly transmitting control signals.

This technology was once monopolized by Japan, with high procurement prices. Origin Quantum Computing Technology (Hefei) Co., Ltd. and the 40th Research Institute of China Electronics Technology Group Corporation jointly applied for the Anhui Province's key project to develop high-density microwave interconnect module technology suitable for ultra-low temperature environments at a price lower than imported equipment and achieved the localization of the module.

TapTechNews has learned that this domestically produced high-density microwave interconnect module can provide microwaves signal transmission channels for 100+ quantum chips, achieving stable transmission of microwave signals across temperature zones with extremely low heat leakage, helping quantum chips unleash even more powerful computing capabilities.

Currently, the Chinese third-generation self-developed superconducting quantum computer 'Origin Wukong' equipped with a 72-qubit superconducting quantum chip has adopted domestically produced high-density microwave interconnect modules and has completed over 183,000 quantum computing tasks.

Kong Weicheng, Deputy Director of the Anhui Province Quantum Computing Engineering Research Center, said, 'This joint development success has broken the foreign embargo monopoly and provided valuable technical support for the research and development of our next-generation quantum computer.'
