Description
A 16-channel readout chip for Silicon strips detectors has been designed in 180
nanometer CMOS technology and tested. It includes low-noise amplification, pulse
shaping, sampling and threshold detection. An input referred noise of 190 + 12
electrons/picoFarad for an integration time of 3 microseconds has been measured,
leading to an overall signal to noise ratio of 30 and a dynamic range of 75 Minimum
Ionizing Particles at +/- 1.5 linearity, for a 60 centimeter long strip. Power
dissipation is 350 microWatt per channel, area is 0.05 square millimeter.
