Cri/oFlex®, our flexible cryogenic cable product
Approaching the Cri/oFlex® products can be done in 2 ways, from a integration point of view, how to get the products in your system? Or from a cable type approach, what kind of cables do we actually sell? Click your the approach you like best below:
Cri/oFlex® product platform
For the input/output (i/o) chains of cryogenic quantum computing, communication and sensing play an essential role in its performance. Especially in larger systems, cabling or component failure, passive heatload and limited space can be a challenge.
Cri/oFlex® is designed specifically for cryogenic (quantum) systems and provides a scalable platform with fully integrated filtering, a small footprint and low heatload.
At Delft Circuits, it is our goal to be a one-stop shop for cryogenic i/o assemblies. To accomplish this goal we have developed three modules. Firstly the interconnect module consisting of electrical- and microwave interfaces, as well as vacuum feedthroughs and thermal anchoring. Secondly, two material platforms (flex laminates) for signal transmission and lastly on-flex integrated components for signal conditioning.
With these three modules we can tackle every cryogenic i/o challenge!
- I/O channel configuration
The most important choice for your I/O is the type of signal it is configured to transmit.
- Cryogenic platform integration
Cri/oFlex® can be integrated into your cryostat in multiple ways. Click to find out more.
- Services
Especially for large channel capacity solutions – a few hundred-, dedicated engineering is required to come with an optimal solution
I/O channel configuration
What type of cables are available?
Cri/oFlex® offers many possibilities to taylor the I/O-chain specification to your application needs. The most typically produced configurations are packaged in a standard configuration:
Read-out lines
Integrate return lines into your I/O solution, including isolators and optionally TWPAs, from topline third party suppliers.
- DC-supply HEMT
- 4 K HEMT amplifier
- Isolator(s)
- TWPA (and Cri/oFlex® pump line)

Mix
&
Match
We understand that every customer is different and all systems require a very specific cabling solution. All our cabling solutions are designed specifically to be able to be used in conjunction with each other. This applies in two different ways:
1
Different types of cables, for example microwave drive lines and flux bias lines can be mixed in single vacuum feedthrough to perfectly match your cabling requirements.
2
Our cables can be build with different ‘building blocks’, by mixing different cable sections the perfect solution can be built from exisiting building blocks, thereby reducing cost, throughput time and still perfectly matching your cabling requirements.
Available I/O Sections
- Vacuum Feedthrough
- RT - 4 K
- 4 K to 10 mK
Available components
- Attenuators (10 dB/20 dB)
- Low Pass Filters (1 GHz / 8 GHz)
- IR filters (1 dB/GHz)

System integration
How to integrate the cables in my system?
There is a wide variety of cooling solutions for quantum computing and low temperature experiments, ranging from lab size dilution refrigerators to small 4K table-top systems. As an i/o provider, it is our task to connect quantum devices and cold experiments to the control electronics regardless of the cooling implementation. To that end we have developed standardized solutions that fit (or can be made to fit) all fridges.
Whether you are purchasing a new system or want to refurbish your current system, Cri/oFlex® provides a solution.
Wiring ports
Have a spare port in your fridge and want to add extra lines or replace an existing wiring port with a higher density cabling solution?
We supply vacuum feedthroughs, Thermal clamps, Brackets and Cri/oFlex® laminates for all standard ports you will find in dilution refridgerators.
- Fits for all standard ports
- Out of the box solution
- Upgrade existing systems
Loaders
Delft Circuits can supply fully pre-assembled loaders with Cri/oFlex cabling inside.
We supply top- and sideloaders for all common brands such as Bluefors, Oxford and Leiden Cryogenics.
The advantages of pre-assambled loaders:
- More channels in a loader
- Plug and play cabling solution
- Engineered for your application
Turn-key
Trying to lead the way in the quantum revolution? We can match your pace in cabling solutions.
Outfitting full systems with cutting edge I/O solutions. Massively scaling cabling solutions for everyone that needs the edge in the quantum race.
Our options:
- Full-service provider
- Full fletched solutions
- Innovative design
Need some help picking the right option?
First questions to ask yourself is how your system is currently wired. Do you have a port available or full loader you would like to install, upgrade or add wiring to?
For ports Delft Circuits recommends choosing from our wiring ports solution, if you want to fill a single port with more cables or get a lower heatload etc. etc. and already know exactly what cables you want pick the Wiring ports option. if you want a hassle free solution with installation, service, calibration. We recommend going for the turn-key solution and see what else we can do for you.
