We propose a quantum Hamiltonian for a transmission line with charge
discreteness. The periodic line is composed of an inductance and a capacitance
per cell. In every cell the charge operator satisfies a nonlinear equation of
motion because of the discreteness of the charge. In the basis of one-energy
per site, the spectrum can be calculated explicitly. We consider briefly the
incorporation of electrical resistance in the line.Comment: 11 pages. 0 figures. Will be published in Phys.Rev.
