Pulse width modulation electrode control and corresponding methods

Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure provide for using pulse width modulation (PWM) to generate signals applied to an electrode of an ion trap while mitigating noise thereof. In some embodiments a PWM signal generator is configured to generate at least one signal, a filter network is configured to filter the at least one signal, and a controller is configured to control operation of the PWM signal generator and the filter network. The controller may cause the PWM signal generator to generate the at least one signal. The at least one signal may be provided to the filter network. The controller may cause the filter network to filter the at least one signal in accordance with a noise requirement, and the filtered at least one signal may be provided to an electrical component of the system.
