As quantum computing scales toward practical applications, cryogenic I/O systems are emerging as a critical bottleneck. In this joint webinar, FormFactor and Delft Circuits present their roadmaps to address the evolving challenges in cryogenic I/O over the next five years. Building on insights from our previous session, we will explore the increasing complexity of designing and fabricating scalable, high-integrity, and maintainable cryogenic interfaces.

We begin by outlining the current and future requirements for quantum computers, focusing on four key bottleneck categories:

1. Physical I/O Scaling – Managing connections across RT, 4K, and mK stages, with emphasis on pre-cooling strategies.
2. Signal Integrity – Addressing thermal loads, noise, S-parameters, and crosstalk.
3. Modularity & Installability – Ensuring flexible and efficient system integration.
4. Reliability & Maintenance – Designing for long-term operability and serviceability.

FormFactor will introduce these challenges from the perspective of a cryostat builder and the limits of scaling traditional chandelier style dilution refrigerators, while Delft Circuits will demonstrate how their technology roadmap aligns with and solves these bottlenecks. Join us to see how this partnership is paving the way for scalable quantum systems and accelerating the path to quantum advantage.
