Abstract
Josephson tunneling devices are used as parametrons in circuits for logic and memory. Parametron circuits are used as input devices to conventional pulsed Josephson tunneling device circuitry, and as output devices from pulsed Josephson tunneling device circuitry. Therefore, transfers from phase information to pulse information and from pulse information to phase information are obtained. Interconnection between superconducting circuit chips is achieved using Josephson tunneling parametrons and Josephson tunneling detectors. Another interconnection scheme uses capacitive coupling between superconducting circuit chips without physical interconnections therebetween, and employs Josephson tunneling devices on separate chips for the receiving and sending circuitry.
