Sumario:This is a status report of the production of the readout electronics for the Digital Hadron Calorimeter (DHCAL) prototype. The prototype will be equipped with Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs), read out with 1 Oe 1 cm(2) pads. The readout of each ch annel is simplified to provide a yes or no (digital readout) within a time bin of 100 ns. Each detector layer with an area of 96 Oe 96 cm(2) contains close to 10,000 readout channels. The total channel count for the entire prototype calorimeter with 38 ac tive layers is approximately 350,000.
