description Devices used for rapid single flux quantum (RSFQ) cell interconnects include passive transmission lines (PTLs) and Josephson transmission lines. In this article, we demonstrate software analysis methods with which reflections on PTLs can be improved through impedance matching without compromising the margins of the connected RSFQ logic cells. RSFQ cells are typically designed to connect to PTL transmitters and receivers before attaching the PTL interconnects. These transmitters and receivers are used as matching and buffer stages between the cell and the PTL; and can be adjusted to minimize impedance mismatching. We integrate PTL transmitters and receivers within the RSFQ cell to decrease the amount of Josephson junctions required to incorporate PTL interconnect functionality. Frequency domain analysis on each cell provides equivalent impedance characteristics used for impedance matching.
