## Description

The National Quantum Computing Center \(NQCC\) aims to build several quantum computers\. One of the most promising architectures for the fundamental building blocks of a quantum computer are superconducting circuits\. The control of these circuits \(qubits\) and the quantum states which they maintain is crucial to the operation of a quantum computer\. These states are controlled, maintained and read out via microwave electronics which are specially designed for this purpose\.
