Abstract We present the instrument simulator developed for X-ray Integral Field Unit X-IFU aboard planned Athena mission. aims to be an accurate representation of entire instrument, starting from a full simulation Transition-Edge Sensor (TES) array receiving impact photons unconstrained by small signal limit. Its output current is then propagated through readout chain, including multiplexing, a...
