RSFQ (Rapid Single Flux Quantum) circuits are used in many practical applications. RSFQ DFFC (Delay Flip-Flop with complementary outputs) circuits can be used in a RAM, an ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit), a microprocessor, and many communication devices. A DFFC circuit has one input, one switch input, and two outputs (output l and output 2). DFFC circuit functions in such way that output 1 follows the input and output 2 is the complement of the input when the switch input is "0." However, when there is a switch input "1."the opposite output signals are generated. In this work, we have designed an RSFQ DFFC circuit based on 1 ㎄/$\textrm{cm}^2$ niobium trilayer technology. As circuit design tools, we used Xic, WRspice, and Lmeter After circuit optimization, we could obtain the bias current margins of the DFFC circuit to be above 32％.

We have designed and measured a SFQ(Single Flux Quantum) DFFC and an Inverter(NOT) for superconducting ALU(Arithmetic Logic Unit) development. To optimize the circuit, we used Julia, XIC, and L meter for circuit simulations and circuit layouts. The Inverter was consisted of a D Flip-Flop, a data input, a clock input and a data output. If a data pulse arrives at the inverter, then the output reads ‘0’ (no output pulse is produced) at the next clock period. If there is no input data pulse, it reads out ‘1’(output pulse is produced). The DFFC was consisted of a D flip-Flop, an Inverter, a Data in, a Clock in and two outputs. If a data pulse arrives at the DFFC circuit, then the output2 reads ‘1’ at the next clock period, otherwise it reads out ‘1’ to output1. Operation of the fabricated chip was performed at the liquid helium temperature and at the frequencies of 1KHz.
