# GateCalibration

*class* `qiskit.qobj.GateCalibration(name, qubits, params, instructions)`

[GitHub](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.1/qiskit/qobj/qasm_qobj.py#L487-L540)

Bases: [`object`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#object)

Each calibration specifies a unique gate by name, qubits and params, and contains the Pulse instructions to implement it.

Initialize a single gate calibration. Instructions may reference waveforms which should be made available in the pulse\_library.

**Parameters**

- **name** ([*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str)) – Gate name.
- **qubits** ([*list*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list)*(*[*int*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int)*)*) – Qubits the gate applies to.
- **params** ([*list*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list)*(*[*complex*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#complex)*)*) – Gate parameter values, if any.
- **instructions** ([*list*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list)*(*[*PulseQobjInstruction*](/docs/api/qiskit/1.1/qiskit.qobj.PulseQobjInstruction "qiskit.qobj.PulseQobjInstruction")*)*) – The gate implementation.

## Methods

### from\_dict

*classmethod* `from_dict(data)`

[GitHub](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.1/qiskit/qobj/qasm_qobj.py#L527-L540)

Create a new GateCalibration object from a dictionary.

**Parameters**

**data** ([*dict*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict)) – A dictionary representing the GateCalibration to create. It will be in the same format as output by [`to_dict()`](#qiskit.qobj.GateCalibration.to_dict "qiskit.qobj.GateCalibration.to_dict").

**Returns**

The GateCalibration from the input dictionary.

**Return type**

[GateCalibration](#qiskit.qobj.GateCalibration "qiskit.qobj.GateCalibration")

### to\_dict

`to_dict()`

[GitHub](https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.1/qiskit/qobj/qasm_qobj.py#L517-L525)

Return a dictionary format representation of the Gate Calibration.

**Returns**

The dictionary form of the GateCalibration.

**Return type**

[dict](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict)
