“Inside the chip” – new video showing Rainier 128 processor

Here is a video showing how some of the parts of a D-Wave Rainier processor go together to create the fabric of the quantum computer.

The animation shows how the processor is made up of 128 qubits, 352 couplers and nearly 24,000 Josephson junctions. The qubits are arranged in a tiling pattern to allow them to connect to one another.

Enjoy!
