With this milestone, Keysight positions itself as a global leader in quantum hardware solutions, setting the stage for the future of scalable quantum computing.
Keysight Technologies Inc. has achieved a groundbreaking milestone in quantum computing by delivering the world’s largest commercial quantum control system (QCS) to Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST). Integrated into AIST’s Global Research and Development Center for Business by Quantum-AI Technology (G-QuAT), this cutting-edge QCS will serve as a key component of a new quantum computing evaluation testbed, advancing large-scale, high-performance quantum operations.
Dr. Masahiro Horibe, Deputy Director of G-QuAT, hailed the system as the world’s first and largest of its kind, emphasizing its role in enabling synchronized, controlled, and accurate readout of multi-channel signals. This achievement represents a leap toward quantum advantage for practical business applications, blending theoretical breakthroughs with engineering innovation.
Dr. Eric Holland, General Manager of Keysight Quantum Engineering Solutions, highlighted the strategic partnership with AIST, noting that this 1,000-qubit control system is a critical step toward next-generation quantum computers capable of transforming industries ranging from artificial intelligence to cryptography and material science.
Quantum computers rely on control systems to translate classical computing code into the quantum domain of photons and qubits. As quantum hardware scales to thousands of qubits, stringent requirements for noise reduction, phase coherence, and time alignment become mission-critical. Keysight’s QCS, designed with a scalable architecture and tested for rigorous performance benchmarks, meets these demands—supporting over 1,000 qubits and enabling complex multi-qubit operations with precision.
