How FPGA-based Digital Quantum Coprocessors Work | HackerNoon
Briefly

The article discusses the architecture of digital quantum coprocessors, emphasizing homogeneous coprocessors that use a single pseudo-random number generator for efficiency. It describes three critical layers: the Digital Qubit Layer, which manages qubit state representation; the Quantum Gate Layer, which simulates quantum logic operations; and the FPGA Processing Layer, which executes these operations in parallel. The article also highlights how these layers work together to simulate quantum behavior, providing insight into the performance characteristics and future potential of this technology.
The architecture of digital quantum coprocessors includes a Digital Qubit Layer, Quantum Gate Layer, and an FPGA Processing Layer that manage qubit states, simulate operations, and execute tasks respectively.
Homogeneous coprocessors are more resource-efficient, leveraging a single PRNG and comparator across all qubits, leading to simpler implementations and enhanced scalability for quantum simulations.
