Abstract
One example includes a superconducting clock conditioning system. The system includes a plurality of inductive stages. Each of the plurality of inductive stages includes an inductive signal path that includes at least one inductor and a Josephson junction. The superconducting clock conditioning system is configured to receive an input AC clock signal and to output a conditioned AC clock signal having an approximately square-wave characteristic and having a peak amplitude that is less than a peak amplitude of the input AC clock signal.
