A novel and useful quantum computing machine architecture that includes a classic computing core as well as a quantum computing core. A programmable pattern generator executes sequences of instructions that control the quantum core. In accordance with the sequences, a pulse generator functions to generate the control signals that are input to the quantum core to perform quantum operations. A partial readout of the quantum state in the quantum core is generated that is subsequently re-injected back into the quantum core to extend decoherence time. Access gates control movement of quantum particles in the quantum core. Errors are corrected from the partial readout before being re-injected back into the quantum core. Internal and external calibration loops calculate error syndromes and calibrate the control pulses input to the quantum core. Control of the quantum core is provided from an external support unit via the pattern generator or can be retrieved from classic memory where sequences of commands for the quantum core are stored a priori in the memory. A cryostat unit functions to provide several temperatures to the quantum machine including a temperature to cool the quantum computing core to approximately 4 Kelvin.

Novel and useful electronic and magnetic control of several quantum structures that provide various control functions. An electric field provides control and is created by a voltage applied to a control terminal. Alternatively, an inductor or resonator provides control. An electric field functions as the main control and an auxiliary magnetic field provides additional control on the control gate. The magnetic field is used to control different aspects of the quantum structure. The magnetic field impacts the spin of the electron by tending to align to the magnetic field. The Bloch sphere is a geometrical representation of the state of a two-level quantum system and defined by a vector in x, y, z spherical coordinates. The representation includes two angles θ and φ whereby an appropriate electrostatic gate control voltage signal is generated to control the angle θ of the quantum state and an appropriate control voltage to an interface device generates a corresponding electrostatic field in the quantum structure to control the angle φ.

An MRAM-based vector multiplication device, such as can be used for inferencing in a neural network, is presented that is ultralow power, low cost, and does not require special on-chip programming. A crosspoint array has an MRAM cell at each crosspoint junction and periphery array circuitry capable of supplying independent input voltages to each word line and reading current on each bit line. Vector multiplication is performed as an in-array multiplication of a vector of input voltages with matrix weight values encoded by the MRAM cell states. The MRAM cells can be individually programmed using a combination of input voltages and an external magnetic field. The external magnetic field is chosen so that a write voltage of one polarity reduces the anisotropy sufficiently to align the cell state with the external field, but is insufficient to align the cell if only half of the write voltage is applied.

A power supply drive circuit includes a primary-side power supply drive circuit and a secondary-side power supply circuit. The primary-side power supply drive circuit has a digital-to-analog converter for executing soft-start control of a primary-side power supply circuit with a predetermined step amount. The primary-side power supply circuit generates a predetermined primary-side voltage from a power supply voltage. The secondary-side power supply drive circuit drives a secondary-side power supply circuit that lowers the predetermined primary-side voltage to generate a predetermined secondary-side voltage. The digital-to-analog converter further sets a step amount for an output of the digital-to-analog converter to be smaller than the predetermined step amount based on a condition that the output is in a vicinity of the predetermined secondary side voltage.
