One trigger. A single pulse of light at the gate of every compute cell. That is where every AutoPhi cycle starts.

That one pulse opens three strands at once. A photon strand — optical compute. An electron strand — the classical silicon doing what silicon does. And an atomic strand — the quantum dot. Three different physics on the same clock.

At the end of the cycle they fold back together. One value out. But it was computed three ways. That is the Photon Chromosome. One of nine owned-IP elements. The one that makes AutoPhi not a chip, but a hybrid part.

One trigger. Three strands. One chip.
