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 12):
The NDRO gate of  claim 11 , wherein the D flip-flop comprises:\n a data input inductor connected between the data input port and a first node; a data input Josephson junction connected between the first node and the circuit ground; a state storage Josephson junction connected between a second node and the circuit ground; a first inductor connected between a third node and the first node; a second inductor connected between the second node and the third node; a logical clock input inductor connected between the logical clock input port and a fourth node; an escape Josephson junction connected between the fourth node and the second node; and at least one linking inductor connected between the third node and the at least one tail circuit, wherein the D flip-flop does not include a DC flux bias transformer connected to a DC flux bias line.
