Abstract

In this study we carried out the analysis of the time resolution of Josephson balanced comparators with Bloch inductance. It was obtained expression for time resolution in case of growing strobe-pulse of voltage. It is shown that, time resolution is determined by Bloch inductance of small size Josephson junctions. Estimation gives the time resolution at the level subpicosecond.
