One embodiment of the invention includes a method for generating a Reciprocal Quantum Logic (RQL) circuit design via a synthesis tool. The method includes providing data associated with behavior and constraints of the RQL circuit design and a component library to the synthesis tool. The method also includes generating an RQL netlist circuit comprising a flip-flop device placeholder and a circuit system coupled to at least one of an input and an output of the flip-flop device placeholder via the synthesis tool based on the data and a component library. The method also includes separating the circuit system into circuit subsystems that are each associated with a separate respective phase of a clock signal via the synthesis tool based on inputs. The method further includes removing the flip-flop device placeholder from the RQL netlist circuit via the synthesis tool to generate the RQL circuit design from the RQL netlist circuit.
