Equal1 has announced the release of RacQ, a silicon-spin quantum computing system designed for integration into standard 19-inch data center racks. An evolution of the company’s Bell-1 server, the RacQ is engineered to operate as a peer-level resource alongside classical hardware. The system is powered by the UnityQ quantum system-on-chip (SoC), which is fabricated using standard CMOS semiconductor processes. This design allows the quantum processing unit (QPU) to be manufactured within the existing global chip supply chain while maintaining a form factor compatible with a standard 42U frame. Hybrid Quantum-Classical Computing (HQCC) Architecture The RacQ architecture supports Hybrid Quantum-Classical Computing (HQCC), [...]
