Abstract
Microwave SQUID Multiplexing (\(\mu \)MUX) is a widely used technique in the low-temperature detectors community as it offers a high capacity for reading large-scale Transition-Edge Sensor (TES) arrays. This paper proposes a Sliding Flux Ramp Demodulation (SFRD) algorithm for \(\mu \)MUX readout system. It can achieve a sampling rate in the order of MHz while maintaining a multiplexing ratio of about one thousand. Advancing of this large array readout technique makes it possible to observe scientific objects with improved time resolution and event count rate. This will be highly helpful for TES calorimeters in X-ray applications, such as X-ray astrophysics missions.
期刊介绍:
Many new instruments for observing astronomical objects at a variety of wavelengths have been and are continually being developed. Furthermore, a vast amount of effort is being put into the development of new techniques for data analysis in order to cope with great streams of data collected by these instruments.
Experimental Astronomy acts as a medium for the publication of papers of contemporary scientific interest on astrophysical instrumentation and methods necessary for the conduct of astronomy at all wavelength fields.
Experimental Astronomy publishes full-length articles, research letters and reviews on developments in detection techniques, instruments, and data analysis and image processing techniques. Occasional special issues are published, giving an in-depth presentation of the instrumentation and/or analysis connected with specific projects, such as satellite experiments or ground-based telescopes, or of specialized techniques.
