Here we describe a six channel inexpensive FDM receiver, agnostic to the nuclei of interest or magnetic field strength, implemented straightforwardly using off-the-shelf products, portable, and easily used in conjunction with any system with a single trigger line. The architecture is straightforwardly scalable to 16 channels at a cost of approximately $1300 per channel. This work describes the receiver architecture and the capabilities are demonstrated by acquiring six channel images from a previously reported mouse array coil, two-channel 13C spectra, and comparing the SNR of the receiver to the Varian Inova system.
