Abstract Digital SQUIDs with the single flux quantum (SFQ) feedback have attracted much attention because of the feasibility of realizing a wide dynamic range and high slew rate for digital magnetometers. In order to realize higher resolution, we have studied a digital SQUID with sub-flux quantum feedback. Combining the sub-flux quantum feedback to a feedback loop and the direct SFQ feedback to a main loop triggered by carry SFQ pulses from an up/down counter. In this study, we discuss the method of multi-flux quantum generation and compact design of the SFQ up/down counter for high-speed operation of the digital SQUID magnetometer.
