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 1):
A reciprocal quantum logic (RQL) non-destructive readout (NDRO) gate comprising:\n a body circuit having at least one single flux quantum (SFQ) logical input, the body circuit being configured to store at least one logical state; and at least one tail circuit connected to the body circuit, the at least one tail circuit comprising:\n a tail input inductor connected between an NDRO read-enable input port and the body circuit and configured to receive an SFQ pulse NDRO read-enable signal on the NDRO read-enable input port; \n a tail Josephson junction connected between the body circuit and a circuit ground; and \n a tail output inductor connected between the body circuit and an NDRO output port and configured to transmit an SFQ pulse NDRO output signal based on the stored logical state and the NDRO read-enable signal without affecting the stored logical state.
