Readout of a Micro Strip Gas Chamber Prototype with the APV6 Front-end Chip

It is foreseen that all the microstrips of the Silicon and MSGC tracker in CMS will be read out by the same front-end electronics. The APV6, a 128 channel pipeline chip developed and optimized for silicon detectors, has been used for the first time to instrument one prototype MSGC built and operated...

description It is foreseen that all the microstrips of the Silicon and MSGC tracker in CMS will be read out by the same front-end electronics. The APV6, a 128 channel pipeline chip developed and optimized for silicon detectors, has been used for the first time to instrument one prototype MSGC built and operated according to CMS specifications. The low noise amplifier is identical to the one included in the version of the chip optimized for MSGC which has recently been prototyped. In their low luminosity operation mode ( peak mode) the two chips behave in identical way. Some results are presented of the performance of the system stimulated by a Sr90 source and operated in peak mode.
