  • Publication number: 20250140434
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide methods, apparatuses, systems, or computer program products for providing dynamic control of a signal. In an example embodiment, a system comprises a signal generator, a controller configured to control operation of the signal generator, a first signal path between the signal generator and an output connected to an electrode of an ion trap, and a selectively connectable second signal path between the signal generator and the output to bypass the low pass filter. The signal generator is configured to generate a signal comprising a first frequency component having a first range of frequencies and/or a second frequency component having a second range of frequencies higher than the first range of frequencies. The first signal path comprises a low pass filter to filter noise above the first range of frequencies. The second signal path comprises a bandpass filter to permit the second frequency component to pass from the signal generator to the output.
