Abstract

This paper presents numerical simulations of a single stage of a linear SQUID amplifier. The amplifier stage is fabricated in thin film technology, and consists of two asymmetric SQUIDs placed in the push-pull configuration. It was found that the Q of the tank circuit formed by SQUID inductance and a parasitic strip-line capacitance must be reduced to unity to avoid hysteretic operation. A load line analysis has determined the amplifier operating point and SQUID inductance which yield optimum linearity.
