ABSTRACT

Microwave SQUID multiplexing is a promising technique for multiplexing large arrays of transition edge sensors. A major bottleneck in the development and distribution of microwave SQUID multiplexer chips occurs in the time-intensive design testing and quality assurance stages. To obtain useful RF measurements, these devices must be cooled to temperatures below 500 mK. The need for a more efficient system to screen microwave multiplexer chips has grown as the number of chips requested by collaborators per year reaches into the hundreds. We have therefore assembled a test bed for microwave SQUID circuits, which decreases screening time for four 32-channel chips from 24 h in an adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator to approximately 5 h in a helium dip probe containing a closed cycle 3He sorption refrigerator. We discuss defining characteristics of these microwave circuits and the challenges of establishing an efficient testing setup for them.
