World of Quantum 2025 (June 23-27)
N.A.T. presents MicroTCA based solution for control systems for Quantum Computing at World of Quantum at booth A1-503 (nVent)
Bonn/Germany, 22 June2025 - At World of Quantum 2025 in Munich, N.A.T. is presenting its MicroTCA based solution for control systems for Quantum Computer.
MicroTCA is an open industrial standard supported by a large and international eco system. MicroTCA is heavily used by the high-energy and particle physics community. Many low-level radio frequency (LLRF) control systems of international particle accelerators are based on this technology.
Being supplied with longevity guarantees for 15 years and more the modular amd extendable standard has currently been updated to support 100GbE and PCIE gen5 board-to-board speeds.
The ability to house both low-noise analogue and digital connections in one create allow customers to reduce space and costs.
The built-in system management fully manages all compenents in terms of temperature and power (and other parameters), which also enables customers to built energy efficient systems.
Because of its technical features
- high bandwidth in single or dual star topology
- redundant and fail-safe including hot-swap
- precision timing including IEEE1588 and GPS
- low-latency connections for trigger and timing
- low-latency connections for FPGA-to-FPGA communication
- rear-transition modules
- optcial or copper system uplinks
MicroTCA has been the platform choice to build control systems for particle accelerators and quantum computers.
Together with our partner nVent we are showcasing the most recent and fully MTCA.0 r3 compliant system in a live demo.
The demonstration visualizes the capabilities of simultaneous data communication through direct point-to-point and switched links. As a result we are measuring and displaying the latency of both data paths are displayed.
In addition to the demo we show some selected key components, such as high-end FPGA cards, i.e. NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-ADV, and of course the newest family of generation 4 NAT-MCHs.
Come and see us at stand A1.503 at World of Quantum 2025.
