摘要: We report a design and implementation of a field-programmable-gate-arrays (FPGA) based hardware platform, which is used to realize control and signal readout of trapped-ion-based multi-level quantum systems. This platform integrates a four-channel 2.8 Gsps@14 bits arbitrary waveform generator, a 16-channel 1 Gsps@14 bits direct-digital-synthesis-based radio-frequency generator, a 16-channel 8 ns resolution pulse generator, a 10-channel 16 bits digital-to-analog-converter module, and a 2-channel proportion integration differentiation controller. The hardware platform can be applied in the trapped-ion-based multi-level quantum systems, enabling quantum control of multi-level quantum system and high-dimensional quantum simulation. The platform is scalable and more channels for control and signal readout can be implemented by utilizing more parallel duplications of the hardware. The hardware platform also has a bright future to be applied in scaled trapped-ion-based quantum systems.
