We are presently developing the detector array maXs, which will allow for benchmark experiments in x-ray spectroscopy to challenge bound-state QED calculations. maXs will consist of 32 Metallic Magnetic Calorimeters (MMCs), operated at temperatures around 30 mK in a dry 3He/4He dilution refrigerator. In such a MMC the energy of an absorbed photon leads to an increase of the detector temperature accompanied by a change in magnetization of a paramagnetic temperature sensor which is detected by a SQUID-magnetometer. One fourth of the detectors of the array will have an energy resolution of 3 eV for photon energies up to 20 keV. Three fourth of the detectors are designed for the detection of photons with energies up to 200 keV with a resolution of 40 eV. We discuss how to minimize the thermal and electromagnetic crosstalk between the detectors and how to remove the heat that is produced within the two-dimensional array without degrading the energy resolution. We consider how to ensure equal detector response despite a position-dependent absorption of high energy photons. Furthermore we present latest results of present prototype arrays.
