Streamlined quantum amplifier operation

Stop using multiple, general-purpose instruments to operate your JPA or TWPA. The QAC has everything you need to do the job:
 

  • Precision low-noise current source for biasing

  • Low phase-noise microwave pump source

  • Low-noise, high-gain final stage amplifiers
