Niobium SWAP junctions – Quantum computing has the potential to solve problems beyond the capabilities of conventional supercomputers. It could revolutionize the advancement of several fields, including biochemistry, finance, logistics, and artificial intelligence. However, building quantum hardware is a great challenge, involving both concepts and technology that have little in common with those in conventional silicon chips.  To help address these challenges CMC and our academic and industrial partners host hands-on training that covers design through to fabrication for superconducting quantum devices.

CORE-V MCU –  open-source microcontroller architecture designed for low-power edge processing applications, based on the CV32E40P RISC-V core from OpenHW Group and features a standard set of system peripherals. An FPGA implementation targeting low-cost boards is available now. An SoC in Global Foundries 22nm FDX is in development featuring a QuickLogic embedded FPGA macro for adding custom hardware accelerators without the time, cost, and complexity of re-spinning the chip. Devkit boards featuring the SoC will be available early 2023 and will include SDK, documentation, and demonstration applications.

CORE-V VEC –  CORE-V VEC is a 64-bit vector co-processor for the OpenHW CVA6 RISC-V application processor to enable edge processing applications such as machine learning and high-throughput multi-dimensional digital signal processing. The collaborative research project between Polytechnique Montreal, ETH Zurich, OpenHW Group, CMC Microsystems and Mitacs will be prototyped in Global Foundries 22nm FDX.
