INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
A Chinese company released Origin Tianji 4.0, a self-developed superconducting quantum measurement and control system that supports
500-plus-qubit quantum computer systems, symbolizing the development of Chinas production abilities in quantum computing.Origin Quantum, a
start-up based in the eastern Chinese city of Hefei, built and updated the fourth-generation system based on its preceding 3.0 variation,
which powers Origin Wukong, Chinas separately developed third-generation superconducting quantum computer
The new system features enhancements in scalability, combination, stability and automation.Dubbed the switchboard of quantum computers,
measurement and control systems handle accurate signal generation, acquisition and control for quantum chips.Kong Weicheng, deputy director
of Anhui Quantum Computing Engineering Research Center and head of the systems advancement group, said Origin Tianji 4.0 will boost the
efficient control and accurate readout of quantum chips, decreasing the R&D and shipment timeline of quantum computers.Since it entered into
operation on January 6, 2024, Origin Wukong has actually served users in 139 nations and areas over 26 million times, and completed more
than 380,000 quantum computing tasks, covering a large range of industries from finance to biomedicine, according to the research center.
