ControlChannel

class ControlChannel(index)

GitHub

Control channels provide supplementary control over the qubit to the drive channel. These are often associated with multi-qubit gate operations. They may not map trivially to a particular qubit index.

Channel class.

Parameters

index (int) – Index of channel.

Raises

PulseError – If index is not a nonnegative integer.


Attributes

index

Type: int

Return the index of this channel. The index is a label for a control signal line typically mapped trivially to a qubit index. For instance, DriveChannel(0) labels the signal line driving the qubit labeled with index 0.

Return type

int

name

Type: str

Return the shorthand alias for this channel, which is based on its type and index.

Return type

str

prefix

Default value: 'u'

A shorthand string prefix for characterizing the channel type.
