The authors investigated low-frequency noise in RF and DC superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) with step-edge Josephson junctions (SEJs). The noise properties have been measured as a function of frequency, temperature, bias current, and magnetic field. The low-frequency noise has a telegraph-like character in certain conditions and depends quasi-periodically on flux and temperature. This telegraph noise was also observed in single step-edge junctions. The experimental results were explained by a model of such a junction in which an array of parallel and series connected weak links acts like a two-level fluctuator. This fluctuator arises from the quantum states of a multijunction SQUID with spatially inhomogeneous SEJs resembling a multijunction array.>
