Wiring Schema

Schema for control.yaml, readout_send.yaml, and readout_return.yaml.

Source: schema/wiring.schema.json

Top-Level Structure

Property Type Required Description
modules object No Reusable module definitions
lines array Yes List of line configurations

Module

Each key in modules defines a named module.

Property Type Required Description
stages object Yes Component definitions per stage

Stage keys must be one of: RT, 50K, 4K, Still, CP, MXC.

Each stage value is an array of component references.

modules:
  control_standard:
    stages:
      50K:
        - XMA-10dB
      4K:
        - XMA-20dB

Line

Each item in lines uses one of two formats:

  • Module reference — Specifies module and optionally stages for overrides (add/remove)
  • Flat (inline) — Specifies stages directly with component lists. module must not be present.
Property Type Required Description
line_id string Yes Line identifier. Pattern: ^(C\|RS\|RR)\d+$
qubit string No Associated qubit (for control lines). Pattern: ^Q\d+$
qubits array of string No Associated qubits (for readout lines). Each: ^Q\d+$
module string No Referenced module name
stages object No Per-stage components or overrides

Variant 1: Module Reference

The line inherits all components from the named module. Optional stages can override specific stages.

- line_id: C00
  qubit: Q00
  module: control_standard

Variant 2: Flat (Inline Stages)

The line defines all components directly. module must not be present.

- line_id: C00
  qubit: Q00
  stages:
    4K:
      - type: attenuator
        manufacturer: XMA
        model: 2082-6431-20
        value_dB: 20

Stage Overrides

When a line references a module, its stages object uses add / remove instead of a component list.

Property Type Description
add array Components to append
remove array Components to remove (by key or {model: "..."})
- line_id: C01
  qubit: Q01
  module: control_standard
  stages:
    4K:
      remove:
        - XMA-20dB
      add:
        - XMA-10dB
        - LPF-KL

Component Reference

A component reference is one of:

String Key

A key name defined in components.yaml.

- XMA-20dB

Inline Object

A full component definition.

Property Type Required Description
type enum Yes attenuator, filter, isolator, or amplifier
manufacturer string Yes Manufacturer name
model string Yes Model number
serial string No Serial number
value_dB number No Attenuation in dB (attenuator)
gain_dB number No Gain in dB (amplifier)
filter_type string No Filter type (e.g., Eccosorb)
amplifier_type string No Amplifier type (e.g., HEMT)
- type: amplifier
  manufacturer: LNF
  model: LNC4_8C
  amplifier_type: HEMT
  gain_dB: 38

Stage Names

Value Description
RT Room temperature
50K 50 Kelvin
