Abstract

An integrated multipurpose setup for the automated testing of superconductor devices and circuits has been designed, implemented, and installed in the RSFQ Laboratory of the State University of New York at Stony Brook. The extendable and modular design of the setup allows a wide variety of low-frequency superconductor experiments to be carried out including those that require immediate interaction between the setup and the researcher.
