A superconducting phase-transition microcalorimeter is a promising detector for high resolution X-ray spectroscopy. We are developing such a detector for future Japanese X-ray astronomy missions. In our design, a tin absorber is electrodeposited as a mushroom structure to achieve a high covering fraction. We have succeeded in detecting X-rays with the first model of our calorimeter with an electrodeposited absorber, though the energy resolution was limited due to residual resist. We are also developing a phase-transition microcalorimeter with a low transition temperature. We describe the results of these experiments, and discuss the limiting factors of their performance. .
