About

Zurich Instruments is a provider of quantum control electronics. In 2018 it introduced the first commercial Quantum Computing Control System (QCCS), a scalable hardware and software platform that can control more than 100 superconducting and spin qubits with real-time feedback, synchronization, and decision-making. Components such as the SHFQA Quantum Analyzer and SHFSG Signal Generator handle high-fidelity qubit control and readout for quantum computing companies including Atlantic Quantum and IQM. In January 2026 the company launched the SHF+ next-generation signal generator series, adding bandwidth and signal fidelity for qubit control, and expanded the QCCS platform to support systems of 500 or more qubits with lower latency for real-time error correction feedback loops. In February 2025, Zurich Instruments, IQM, and Riverlane launched SurgeonQ, the first integrated quantum error correction platform. It combines ZI control hardware, a 20-qubit IQM superconducting processor, and Riverlane's Deltaflow QEC Stack for real-time lattice surgery error detection and correction on logical qubits. As part of the NVIDIA NVQLink initiative, Zurich Instruments is working with IQM Quantum Computers and NVIDIA on a real-time quantum error correction demonstrator aimed at data-center-integrated quantum systems by 2030.
