Increase in repetition delay time maximum

To provide more flexibility for users, we have expanded the allowable repetition delay time range from 20-500 µs to 20-2000 µs on our Heron and Eagle QPUs. The Nighthawk QPU delay time range continues to be 1000-4000 µs as previously announced. Note that if you choose to increase repetition delay (rep_delay), it will have a direct impact on your execution time and capacity consumption, but it might improve the fidelity of certain circuits. The default rep_delay remains unchanged on all QPUs.

You can find more information about repetition delay time, including how to change it, in Qubit initialization.
