Abstract:
Non-destructive read out (NDRO) circuits are provided for use in reciprocal quantum logic (RQL) superconducting systems. Each NDRO circuit includes a “body” circuit that provides a single or multi-state sub-critical bias current to one or many independent “tail” circuitries. Each “tail” has minimal effect on the “body” thereby preventing any interference or destruction to the state of the “body” circuitry. The circuits reduce device count and thereby increase circuit density, simplify and reduce the cost of fabrication, and provide functionality not available in existing designs, such as the ability to write a state and read it in the same operation cycle. The NDRO circuits provide more compact unit cells useful in memory or logic arrays, demanding fewer resources with increased functionality. The circuits also provide compact cells for AND, AND-OR, A-NOT-B, inverter, multiplexer, and demultiplexer gates.

Claim (Index 16):
The NDRO gate of  claim 1 , configured as an A-NOT-B gate, the gate having only a single tail circuit, and wherein the body circuit comprises:\n a logical input inductor connected between a logical input port and a first node; a state relay Josephson junction connected between the first node and the circuit ground; a second inductor connected between the first node and a second node; a pulse generator connected to the second node, comprising two Josephson junctions and an AC bias source, and providing a return-to-zero (RZ) tie-high signal; and an escape Josephson junction connected between the second node and the single tail circuit, wherein the tail circuit outputs a signal representing the NDRO read-enable signal only when a body input signal provided at the logical input port of the body circuit is unasserted.
