'''Pixels:''' pitch 1600 x 1600 micron. 224 pixels on design (16x16 array minus the corners). 196 identified resonances (about 20 more are higher in f, out of the NIKEL band), about 180-190 useful pixels. 40 OFF-resonance. Total number of channels 236. '''Cold electronics:''' !SiGe Caltech amplifier "Florence" (gain 40dB, 1dB compression point 0dBm integrated power, Noise T around 6K). '''Warm electronics:''' NIKEL01. RF source 192.168.1.196 (IFR 2024 ''Leasametric''). 0dB attenuation at cryo IN. DAC 20,23,20,25,32; niv 6 (measured -54dBm per tone at cryo input, including 2m flex cables, '''FOR NIV 5'''). LO modulation 8kHz. VLF2600 low-pass filter at cryostat input. '''Optics and spectrum:''' Same optical configuration as run 4 and 5. Except one filter (LPE 9cm-1) less compared to run 6.
