US Patent 10944403 Superconducting field-programmable gate array

The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for operating superconducting circuitry. In one aspect, a programmable circuit includes: (1) a superconducting component arranged in a multi-dimensional array of alternating narrow and wide portions, the superconducting component having an input terminal at a first end and an output terminal at a second end opposite of the first end; and (2) control circuitry coupled to the narrow portions of the superconducting component, the control circuitry configured to transition the narrow portions between superconducting and non-superconducting states.
