    “Crescendo Achieving best-in-industry gain and noise performance over the readout bandwidth, the Crescendo travelling wave parametric amplifier (TWPA) enables the multiplexed readout of many qubits at once. This enormous reduction in the required overhead in terms of wiring complexity, up-chain components and cost per qubit compared to traditional narrow-band JPA-based readout solutions facilitates future-proof scalable qubit readout.”
