A MKID-readout based on a heterogeneous, closely coupled architecture

Abstract

Within this proceeding, we introduce the U-Board platform, a versatile platform for signal generation, acquisition and processing, based on a heterogenous processing architecture. Based on this platform we present a readout for Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) for the A-MKID camera for APEX. In addition to the implementation of the readout on this heterogenous architecture, we also present a first comparison of the performance of the readout compared to the currently used readout of the A-MKID camera. Last but not least, we discuss how we plan to miniaturize the current prototype, which is based on commercial off the shelf components.
