description <p>The forthcoming generation of cosmic microwave background polarization observatories is developing large format detector arrays which will operate at 100&nbsp;mK. Given the volume of detector wafers that will be required, fast-cooldown 100&nbsp;mK test cryostats are increasingly needed. A miniature dilution refrigerator (MDR) has been developed for this purpose and is reported. The MDR is precooled by a doublestage <sup>3</sup>He&ndash;<sup>4</sup>He Chase Research Cryogenics sorption refrigerator. The test cryostat based on this MDR will enable fast cooldown to 100&nbsp;mK to support rapid feedback testing of detector wafers fabricated for the Simons Observatory. The MDR has been designed to provide a 100&nbsp; mK stage to be retrocompatible with existing CRC10 sorption coolers, reducing the base temperature from 250&nbsp;mK for the new generation of detectors. Other 250&nbsp;mK cryostats can be retroftted in the same way. This confguration will meet the cryogenic requirements for single-wafer testing, providing 5&ndash;10&nbsp;&mu;W of cooling power at 100&nbsp;mk for over 8&nbsp;h. The system operates in a closed cycle, thereby avoiding external gas connections and cold o-rings. No moving parts are required, with the system operated entirely by heaters.</p>
