Using a fast silicon strip detector, a multi‐frame acquisition scheme was implemented to perform energy‐dispersive X‐ray magnetic circular dichroism at the iron K ‐edge in pulsed high magnetic fields. The acquisition scheme makes use of the entire field pulse. The quality of the signal obtained from samples of ferrimagnetic erbium iron garnet allows for quantitative evaluation of the signal amplitude. Below the compensation point, two successive field‐induced phase transitions and the reversal of the net magnetization of the iron sublattices in the intermediate phase were observed.
