Title :
A Josephson latch

Davidson, Arthur
Abstract :
A latch has been developed which is suitable for use in a high-speed Josephson latching-logic computer. Measurements on a test chip incorporating latch circuits have shown that the flip-flop is capable of changing states in ~120 ps and that races can be prevented by deriving timing information from the AC power waveform. Details of the design and experimental results are given.
