Large error rates of quantum bits (qubits) are one of the main difficulties in the development of quantum computing. Performing quantum error correction (QEC) with surface codes is considered the most promising approach to reduce the error rates of qubits effectively. To perform error correction, we need an error-decoding unit, which estimates errors in the noisy physical qubits repetitively, to create a robust logical qubit. While complicated graph-matching problems must be solved within a strict time restriction for the error decoding, several hardware implementations that satisfy the restriction at a large code distance have been proposed.
