Welcome to Quantify’s documentation!

quantify-scheduler

Quantify is a Python-based data acquisition framework focused on Quantum Computing and solid-state physics experiments. The framework consists of quantify-core (git repo) and quantify-scheduler (git repo). It is built on top of QCoDeS and is a spiritual successor of PycQED.

quantify-scheduler is a Python module for writing quantum programs featuring a hybrid gate-pulse control model with explicit timing control. This control model allows quantum gate and pulse-level descriptions to be combined in a clearly defined and hardware-agnostic way. quantify-scheduler is designed to allow experimentalists to easily define complex experiments. It produces synchronized pulse schedules that are distributed to control hardware, after compiling these schedules into control-hardware specific executable programs.

Take a look at the latest documentation for quantify-scheduler or use the switch at the bottom of the left panel to read the documentation for older releases. Also see the latest documentation for quantify-core.
