N2 - A multiplier based on superconductor single-flux-quantum (SFQ) logic is demonstrated up to 48GHz with the measured power consumption of 5.6 mW. The multiplier performs 8 × 8 - bit signed multiplication every clock cycle. The design is based on a bit-parallel, gate-level-pipelined structure that exploits ultimately high-throughput performance of SFQ logic. The test chip fabricated using a 1.0- μ {m}, 9-layer process consists of 20,251 Nb/AlOx/Nb Josephson junctions (JJs). The correctness of operation is verified by on-chip high-speed testing.
