ControlChannel

ControlChannel(index)

GitHub(opens in a new tab)

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

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

str

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

Return type

str

prefix

= 'u'

A shorthand string prefix for characterizing the channel type.
