Sumario:This paper reports on the test beam performed in autumn 2005 with a setup using a chip developed for the OPERA experiment to readout signal produced by a scintillating fibres detector. The goals of this test beam period were mainly to check the performances of this type of detector as well as the possibility to use the OPERA chip. The results presented here confirm the possibility to use a similar detector for the future ATLAS luminometer as well as an ASIC with twice more channels than the OPERA chip and with some more functionality.
