About this file
This document is a Requirements/Specifications document for a QEG qubit data acquisition and control platform issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The Quantum Electronics Group (QEG) requires a specialized data acquisition platform to support quantum computing research, specifically for measuring performance characteristics of superconducting microwave resonators. The platform must have 16 digital-to-analog and 16 analog-to-digital converter channels capable of sampling at 2.5 giga-samples per second, integrated with a field programmable gate array containing 8,000 logical cells and 4,000 digital signal processing slices. Additionally, the platform must be compatible with the Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit (QICK) framework and have the capability to output data over 100G ethernet.
The document specifies delivery, installation, and training shall be completed by 10/01/2025, with the platform to be shipped to NIST in Boulder, Colorado. The procurement is part of a collaborative effort with the Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems (SQMS) Center, funded by the Department of Energy. The specification indicates planned government acceptance testing will occur within 7 business days, and the procurement is being managed by NIST's Quantum Electronics Group (PML/687/14). No separately priced options or additional services are detailed in this document.

TITLE: QEG qubit data acquisition and control platform Requesting Lab/Division/Group: PML/687/14
General Statement of Need
The NIST Quantum Electronics Group (QEG) manages and operates a testbed to openly disseminate standard protocols to reproducibly measure the performance characteristics of superconducting microwave resonators used in quantum computing circuits. As part of this work, the QEG is developing firmware and software for round robin qubit benchmarking measurements in partnership with Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems (SQMS) Center funded by the Department of Energy. To facilitate this effort, we need a data acquisition platform with 16 digital-to-analog converters and 16 analog-to-digital converters sampling at rates faster than 2.5 giga-samples per second. Additionally, this data acquisition platform must be compatible with the qubit control platform adopted by the SQMS collaboration for these intercomparison measurements known as the Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit.
