Frequency Shift Algorithm: Application to a Frequency-Domain Multiplexing Readout of X-ray Transition-Edge Sensor Microcalorimeters

D. Vaccaro, H. Akamatsu, J. van der Kuur +17

In the frequency-domain multiplexing (FDM) scheme, transition-edge sensors (TES) are individually coupled to superconducting LC filters and AC biased at MHz frequencies through a c…
