Review: SQUID Multiplexers for Transition-Edge Sensors

Published

Author(s)

Kent D. Irwin

Abstract

We review the SQUID multiplexer schemes that are being developed to instrument large-format arrays of superconducting transition-edge sensors. We discuss the choice of an orthogonal basis set to represent the multiplexed signal (such as time or frequency) and the practical issues of implementation, including bandwidth-limiting filters, SQUID noise, and power dissapation.
