Amplifiers based on Josephson junctions allow for a fast and noninvasive readout of superconducting qubits. Motivated by the ongoing progress toward the realization of fault-tolerant qubits based on Majorana bound states, we investigate the topological counterpart of the Josephson bifurcation amplifier. We predict that the bifurcation dynamics of a topological Josephson junction driven in the appropriate parameter regime may be used as an additional tool to detect the emergence of Majorana bound states.
