Advantages
- Interoperable with CMOS circuitry, microwave and infrared technology
- Extremely fast operating frequency: from a few tens of gigahertz up to hundreds of gigahertz
- Low power consumption: about 100 000 times lower than CMOS semiconductors circuits
- Existing chip manufacturing technology can be adapted to manufacture RSFQ circuitry
- Good tolerance to manufacturing variations
- RSFQ circuitry is essentially self clocking, making asynchronous designs much more practical.

Famous quotes containing the word advantages:
“The respect for human rights is one of the most significant advantages of a free and democratic nation in the peaceful struggle for influence, and we should use this good weapon as effectively as possible.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“There is no one thoroughly despicable. We cannot descend much lower than an idiot; and an idiot has some advantages over a wise man.”
—William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
“In 1845 he built himself a small framed house on the shores of Walden Pond, and lived there two years alone, a life of labor and study. This action was quite native and fit for him. No one who knew him would tax him with affectation. He was more unlike his neighbors in his thought than in his action. As soon as he had exhausted himself that advantages of his solitude, he abandoned it.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
