Abstract
One example includes a pulse selector system. The pulse selector system includes an input Josephson transmission line (JTL) configured to propagate an input reciprocal quantum logic (RQL) pulse received at an input based on a bias signal. The RQL pulse includes a fluxon and an antifluxon. The system also includes an escape Josephson junction coupled to an output of the input JTL. The escape Josephson junction can be configured to pass a selected one of the fluxon and the antifluxon of the RQL pulse and to trigger in response to the other of the fluxon and the antifluxon of the RQL pulse to block the other of the fluxon and the antifluxon of the RQL pulse. The system further includes an output JTL configured to propagate the selected one of the fluxon and the antifluxon as a unipolar pulse to an output based on the bias signal.
